Apparently engagement on that other site’s r/conservative dropped by 2/3 when Russian data centers went down due to drone strikes.

I skimmed this article, but I don’t see one mention of r/conservative, or frankly, any subreddit in general. I’ll give it a closer read in an hour if I can (at the gym, got an assignment to do later) but I’m not confident this addresses the specific claim the post is making.
The news article is specifically about bot traffic from yandex being down. The graph doesn’t really have an explicit correlation with the subreddit though, until someone brings up stats on the subreddit itself (which if I remember Reddit removed access to). So you can only really infer based on actually going to the subreddit. Could be correlated, could be not.
