Why can't I access Reddit?

If Reddit appears up in our check but you can't reach it, try: clearing browser cache, flushing DNS (ipconfig /flushdns or sudo dscacheutil -flushcache), switching from Wi-Fi to mobile data, or disabling your VPN.

How do I check if Reddit is down?

Visit the Reddit page on WebsiteDown for a server-side HTTP probe of reddit.com. We also scan social media, news, and status pages for outage signals.

Can I get alerts when Reddit goes down?

Yes. Starter and Growth plans probe reddit.com every 60 seconds and send alerts via email, Telegram, or Discord — typically within 1–5 minutes of detection.

Are other social media platforms also down?

Check our internet status page for a live overview of major social media services. Outages sometimes affect multiple platforms when they share infrastructure.

Can I still post on Reddit during an outage?

During partial outages, some Reddit features may work while others don't. Try the mobile app if the web version is down, or wait for the issue to resolve.
