Where's that popcorn eating GIF when you need it
They couldn't handle the lack of traffic.
Yep it's broken for me too !
Shutting the site down is one way to avoid the protests. I guess...
you would think with the blackouts they would have more resources available.
I think we're witnessing a murder
And I thought it was my shitty reception at work! Wonder how long it’s going to stay down
same here:
I honestly wonder if it's an attempt to hide all the privated subs and the messages they have on their private page. Now instead of seeing what's going on its just "oh guess reddit down"
It could be an obfuscation for the drop in overall traffic for sure, but that's pretty transparent if they try that sort of thing.
If there is no Reddit, there is no statistic on how severe the user drop is due to the subs that went private. That’s probably better for the IPO.
"You can't take your subreddit down if the whole site is down! Hah!"
For me it doesn’t work too. Neither via Apollo nor via website. Haha.
They want to avoid having statistics how far it went down after the blackout. For the IPO, I bet.
Yes me too. I thought it was just my Apollo app.
Me too I thought it had gone down early or something. Using mLem rn for this and it’s very similar to Apollo!
Here is the status page. It briefly loaded for me on Sync, then crashed again. DDoS attack maybe?
You would need one hell of a botnet to DDOS a site as large as reddit while half its normal users are essentially striking
