Is Reddit Down? Thousands Report Internal Server Error Amid Massive Outage

Reddit experienced a major outage on Friday, November 14, with thousands of users reporting server errors across both the app and website. Downdetector logged more than 19,000 complaints at the peak of the disruption. Major cities including Chicago, New York City, Boston, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Washington, D.C., were among the hardest hit, according to outage reports. Reddit has not yet issued a statement or response regarding the cause of the outage. Interestingly, Reddit’s own status page continues to show all systems operating normally, even as users report being unable to access the platform through both the mobile app and the website. "Did someone finally take down @Reddit? I can't access anything from that website suddenly," a user wrote on X. "Reddit down Again? gett an internal error message," another user tweeted. To fix Reddit’s “Internal Server Error,” start by checking whether Reddit is online using the Reddit Status page, even though it may show no incidents despite widespread user reports. Try refreshing the page, clearing your browser’s cache and cookies, or switching to a different browser or device. Disable browser extensions, especially ad blockers, that might interfere with loading. Ensure your internet connection is stable. Mobile users can clear the Reddit app cache or reinstall the app. However, if the issue is on Reddit’s end, user-side fixes may not resolve the error until the platform fully restores service. The recent outage comes after Reddit’s disruption on November 4, when the platform experienced a massive global failure affecting thousands of users across desktop, mobile and web. At that time, users are reported login errors, partially loading pages, broken media, increased error rates, and being unable to access subreddits or comment sections. Reddit acknowledged the issue, identified the cause, implemented a fix, allowing the platform’s recovery.
