Reddit Down, HTTP 503
Reddit down for anyone else? Getting 503's when I attempt to load it.
- jeremy_k 6y agoYep, just crashed for me too
- apidercondo 6y agoGme related?
- quickthrower2 6y agoShort sellers told reddit to halt?
- sodality2 6y agoNo, the price went up significantly so maybe people are flooding into r/wsb to see what's going on
- roland35 6y agoCertainly seems like it...
- giantg2 6y agoNah, that's old news. Visit /r/ShortSqueeze or /r/ShortSqueezeArmy for their next target. And it wouldn't be hedge funds taking it down, because there's a Discord backup.
- quickthrower2 6y agoHa ha those subs merely need to name a target and job done, the shorters will self squeeze.
- giantg2 6y agoI don't know. There aren't that many people in them.
- 27182818284 6y agoTo be fair there were only like 250,000 subscribers to wallstreetbets or less when this started. Nowhere near the millions of subscribers WSB has now.
- joshuapatel 6y agoThere were over 2 million subscribers to WSB before this started.
- 27182818284 6y agoOK, I am looking at the graph again and I agree it is probably more like 2 million vs 9 million, yeah? That's still a lot more eyeballs later. I don't think WSB will ever be the same.

- rcconf 6y agoGME is up 130% so I assume everyone headed over to Reddit to see what was happening.
- rsuelzer 6y agoBut their traffic didn't seem to spike. System metrics on https://www.redditstatus.com/#day https://www.redditstatus.com/#day don't show any increase in traffic. I do notice all of their message backlogs haven't moved though, so who knows how accurate the request rate is.
- rcconf 6y agoI noticed that too, but it's possible that there was an absurd spike of traffic that halted the entire pipeline and they never got tracked. GME news travelled absurdly quickly. The two events lined up too well.

- wting 6y agoFYI the new website is down (http://new.reddit.com http://new.reddit.com) but the old website is still up (http://old.reddit.com http://old.reddit.com). As others have stated, http://status.reddit.com http://status.reddit.com will display uptime stats.

- Apreche 6y agoFor one of the world's largest web sties, Reddit is down A LOT. It feels almost as bad as Twitter from the fail whale days. Frequently the site will be up, but you'll just get served a public homepage as if you weren't logged in. I feel embarrassed for their engineers. They have to start making site reliability priority #1.
- mdoms 6y ago> They have to start making site reliability priority #1. The downtime doesn't seem to be affecting their growth or revenue, so I guess not.
