Users across several countries reportedly found themselves staring at empty feeds and endlessly loading pages on Thursday after Reddit experienced a temporary disruption that affected both its website and mobile app. Outage-tracking platform Downdetector recorded a sudden jump in complaints during the disruption window, with users reporting issues such as subreddits not opening, comments refusing to load and feeds failing to refresh. Reports surfaced from multiple regions at nearly the same time, pointing to a broader service instability rather than a local internet problem.
In India, users from cities including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad reported trouble accessing the platform. Similar complaints also appeared from parts of the United States, including California, Texas, New York and Illinois.
