Are the reddit admins incompetent or are they also joining the protest? Place your bets here!
EDIT: Looks like they’re back.

Where’s that popcorn eating GIF when you need it
I think we’re witnessing a murder
Yep it’s broken for me too !
They couldn’t handle the lack of traffic.
you would think with the blackouts they would have more resources available.
And I thought it was my shitty reception at work! Wonder how long it’s going to stay down
same here:
“Just don’t panic.”
LOL the irony! Again!
Shutting the site down is one way to avoid the protests. I guess…
“You can’t take your subreddit down if the whole site is down! Hah!”
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”
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.
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
