Reddit experienced a widespread outage on Friday, leaving thousands of users unable to access the platform. Downdetector reported over 19,000 issues, with affected areas including major US cities like Chicago, New York, Boston, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Reddit users took to social media to express their frustration, complaining about 'Internal Server Error' messages. On the Downdetector page, people shared their struggles logging in, with some remarking 'Internal Server Error' and others saying 'Reddit is down.' While Reddit has yet to issue an official statement on the outage, users can try a few troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue. First, check the Reddit Status page to confirm the platform is online. If it is, try refreshing the page, clearing browser cache and cookies, or logging in from a different browser or device. Disabling browser extensions, particularly ad blockers, may also help. For mobile users, clearing the app cache or reinstalling the Reddit app could resolve the issue. However, if the problem persists, it suggests an issue on Reddit's side, and users may need to wait for a fix from the platform. In the meantime, the cause of the outage remains unknown.
