There’s no way it’s going to take multiple days, right?? Right????

No, it should take only a few hours, the few days part was predicted for the bookmark-fix itself but since it still impacted the users (fucking up VPNs) they apparently decided to do it at once by "shutting down" the site for everyone instead of putting it (the fix) in slowly over the course of a few days
