Reddit suffered through its second major outage in as many days on Thursday, November 21. The homepage and subreddits were unreachable for some on desktop and mobile, including us here at TechRadar, and there were numerous reports on social media.
Reddit confirmed to TechRadar that this outage was caused by an update that it quickly rolled back. Similarly, yesterday's more extended outage was the result of some bad code that introduced a bug. One thing that is not going on here, at least according to Reddit, is any outside force tampering with the platform. Instead, it's just a run of bad coding luck, and maybe a call for Reddit to have a word with its developers.
