Reddit’s mobile and web applications went down on Wednesday afternoon, with more than 150,000 users reporting outages on DownDetector as of 1:30 PM in San Francisco. When trying to access Reddit’s homepage, users were met with a message reading, “Server error. Try again later.”
While third-party reports can be unreliable at times, the company itself is reporting a “degraded status” for Reddit.com as of 1:16 PM on its status page, and says it’s currently investigating the issue.
As of 1:32 PM, Reddit’s status page was updated to show that an issue had been identified and a fix is being implemented.
In the past 90 days, Reddit has had very few major outages like this, according to its status page. Typically, these issues are resolved within a few hours, and services trickle back online shortly after.
