Reddit Degraded Performance
- mdoms 6y agoSeems like a lot of services are having trouble today. - Hacker News - Reddit - Azure - (edit) Github actions In the past couple of hours.
- jorl17 6y agoSomeone must have tripped over a couple of wires back in China! EDIT: Clearly, I failed to make it obvious, but I meant this as a joke. I don't believe our traffic is "hubbed" or affected by China in any way whatsoever...
- Hammershaft 6y agohaha I laughed
- magicalhippo 6y agoIt's Monday, we've all been there...
- BrissyCoder 6y agoAhem... Tuesday
- capableweb 6y agoAhem... Sols 25
- danaliv 6y agoI blame DST. /s
- JacobSuperslav 6y agoyahoo finance api was down today
- leesalminen 6y agoGitlab earlier this morning, too.
- mike_d 6y agoConfirms my theory that Azure runs on top of Reddit.
- de6u99er 6y agoCould all be related to something like this. https://www.zdnet.com/article/linux-network-security-holes-found-fixed/ https://www.zdnet.com/article/linux-network-security-holes-f...
- cperciva 6y agoDoesn't HN run on FreeBSD? It always used to.
- radicalcentrist 6y agoBeware the Ides of March.
- agumonkey 6y agoafter ovh fire, it's not a good month for web backends it seems
- de6u99er 6y agoI had performance issues with YouTube and Netflix yesterday, and GitLab had ussues recently. Maybe everybody is patching something similar at the moment.
- linux2647 6y agoDST bugs?
- Havoc 6y agoHonestly I rarely even notice. It’s pretty slow & patchy on a good day
- axaxs 6y agoI honestly wonder what goes on behind Reddit. It's been pretty terrible since the beginning. I don't mean to be insulting to anyone in particular, I know how projects go, and I love the site. But speedy or well done, it is not.
- ngokevin 6y agoThere's no question they've sabotaged their webapp in favor of the app where there's no adblock and they can send push notifications for profit. Been a user since 2009 and still use a ton for everything, but it's quickly grown more painful by the day.
- nojito 6y agoI find this logic quite interesting. Why should Reddit not make money?
- dunmalg 6y agoNo one is saying they shouldn't make money. It is our right to gripe about it when they do so in an annoying or obnoxious manner. We might even abandon the platform if the advertising push becomes too obnoxious. If that happens and they fold, apparently they did not have a viable business model. There is no "should" about any of it.
- ngokevin 6y agoYup. See Digg.
- jimmyvalmer 6y ago> There is no "should" about any of it. Of course there is. Objective functions can be utilitarian or deeply selfish, but "should" pushes them in someone's desired direction. Relativism is tautological and intentionally or not, condescending.
