Reddit went down due to an unknown issue earlier today, with the company flagging an investigation at 12.16pm PT on March 27, 2025.
In a status post, the online platform said reddit.com had suffered "degraded performance."
IGN's test results varied between pages that displayed a "we have encountered an error. Please try again later" message, "this page isn’t working," message, and "internal server error" message.
As of 12.48 PT, Reddit had deployed a fix and was monitoring the results. It now appears to have recoved and is working as normal.
