Reddit is down; tells me to disable adblock

If I had to guess, they're in the process of restoring a database backup and warming up the caches. It looks to me like the front page just regressed by a few hours, but the front page is up for me intermittently on old.reddit.com

The error rate is spiking while the request rate has plummeted, however reddit status page says it's operational [1]. Also, it's telling me to disable adblock:

> It looks like one or more software blocking extensions you are using may be interfering with Reddit's ability to serve you content. Please try disabling them or changing the rules you use.

If I disable the adblocker, I get a generic error anyway. My console shows `Gateway Timeout`:

> error before Error: "Gateway Timeout"

It's not coming up for me - I get the "all of our servers are busy right now" message. I am not using any kind of blocker.

Search seemed to fail a bit ago on the old.reddit.com and now it's just not returning anything useful.

Sam here.
