At least for a time, clicking on any subreddits shows a “Community not found message.” The Reddit status update page listed the problem as “Degraded Performance for reddit.com,” and was initially flagged as “Investigating.” At 4:32PM ET, the status was updated as “Identified - The issue has been identified and a fix is being implemented.” At 4:45PM ET, it was updated again as “Monitoring - A fix has been implemented and we are monitoring the results.” However, it’s still labeled as “Degraded.” Of course, the jokes on social media didn’t take long to start rolling in: reddit is down. how am i supposed to google anything??— Corey Atad (@CoreyAtad) August 28, 2024 Reddit had another major outage earlier this year when it went down for nearly an hour.
