Is Reddit down?

getting "Maximum threads for service reached" error

redditstatus.com never showed anything other than green "Operational", but if you look at the 'request rate' graph, you can see the drop off of requests that occurred.

Everything is back now. I'll be interested to see what Fastly report because they've actually acknowledged that an event occurred.

https://status.fastly.com/

I don't know about today, but for the previous couple of days, I was unable to submit a new post to a subreddit of mine or my profile. I was able to comment in both my subreddit and a different one.

Their status page isn't correct. HTTPS://www.resditstatus.com

Since other sites are down I'm wondering if it is an issue with their CDN, Fastly.

Hitting us too - something's up with Fastly.

Same, I'm getting the error for other sites as well. cnn.com as one example.

What is the common factor for Reddit and CNN.com?

S3 outage again?

maybe using the same cloud services

Probably their CDN: Fastly. Certainly they use Varnish, which is what's giving me 503 errors at the moment.

https://status.fastly.com/ indicates an outage

hmm, the same here for cnn.com,

Also https://www.nytimes.com/

https://www.theverge.com was also affected with the same error. But it seems to be back up

Yeah. https//isitdownrightnow.com too

reddit works now for me
