Reddit Admins taking part in blackout?
It’s just the site, 3rd party apps still work lol…
Edit: Partially. RIF works on r/all, but not the home page.
The mods have a man on the inside
I was just getting spammed on modmail by someone minutes before the whole site went under. Another mod I talked to had precisely the same thing happen. Coincidence?
What did they say?
Well, that’s the thing. Reddit went down right as I was about to check so I have no clue.
I wonder if the huge amount of API denials due to private subs had some effect on the backend.
From their statuspage:
“Reddit Failing to Load Identified - We’re aware of problems loading content and are working to resolve the issues as quickly as possible. Jun 12, 2023 - 07:58 PDT”
Great, more visibility to black out. Thanks reddit!
Update: Seems to be back up!
I also noticed that the entire site seems to be down. I tried to go on there to scrub my posts and back up some stuff, and it wouldn’t even load my login.
Probably an attempt to hide how many subs are private
According to the status site, it looks like a major outage on all platforms. The Reddit twitter account even retweeted the status account about it.
