I always like when people say Twitter's lower reliability will drive people off the site.

Reddit's been awful for more than a decade and people still use it.

Since various tech layoffs I noticed major sites either being slower to browse or experiencing outages more often.

Looking at Downdetector it looks like Reddit and AWS started having problems simultaneously:

Who comes up with this, and who is it for?

funnily enough today was also the day I saw a hackernews comment recycled in a twitter post in reddits daily rolling top10, something that I haven't seen before.

The practice of re-posting across platforms amuses me.

For direct domain links nothing was >6k upvotes yet, but hard to do analytics on screenshots, the common currency of the crossposting economy - https://old.reddit.com/domain/news.ycombinator.com/top/?sort...

I've got so much done tonight thanks to this outage.

by CFLAddLoaderon 3/14/2023, 11:23 PM

old.reddit.com seems to still be working. I can read the comments on there, but I can't for www.reddit.com

No other website of major size is as unreliable as reddit. In over 10 years of usage I've had noticeable facebook downtime only _once_. Meanwhile reddit seems have a major outage at least yearly and minor unavailability on an hourly basis. Even when they're not down, it's slow as fuck. Are they incompetent?
