Here is the jist of what happened from my perspective:
Wow, there is only one person in my feed for the last 12 hrs! Interesting...
It's back, addiction can be fed! One post + 4 comments and...crap.
Forced silence for 24 hrs with a feed full of doomsday.
Then the green bar shifted from West to East. All is well.

If I had been moving into an exciting apartment my time would have been better spent. Congrats on the new place.
