About Reddit outages
Is Reddit down right now?
No, Reddit is not down right now: reddit.com answered our check at 23:15 UTC, and Reddit’s status page reports no problems.
When was Reddit last down?
Our checks haven’t found Reddit down since we started checking it on 16 Oct 2026.
How often does Reddit go down?
Since we started checking Reddit on 16 Oct 2026, our checks every 2 minutes have not found Reddit down. Reddit’s status page reported no incidents in that time.
How does Uptimecheck check Reddit?
We request https://www.reddit.com/ every 2 minutes from New York, London and Stockholm. Any answer below HTTP 500 within 10 seconds counts as up, since large sites often answer automated requests with 403. A failure only counts once a second check confirms it. We also read Reddit’s official status page every 2 minutes.
What can I do when Reddit is down?
Check Reddit’s official status page for updates and try again in a few minutes. If reddit.com works for us but not for you, try another network or browser, or clear your DNS cache. If your own product depends on Reddit, tell your customers on your status page before they email support.
Why is Reddit not working for me when it is up?
Our check shows that reddit.com answers. Your own network, a VPN, browser extensions, an outdated app or a problem with your account can still break Reddit for you alone. The common problems on this page list what usually helps, and when many people report the same problem, it shows here.
Can I get an alert when Reddit has an outage?
Yes. Start a free trial and Uptimecheck watches Reddit’s official status page for you and alerts you by email, SMS, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Telegram or webhook when it reports an outage, and again when it is resolved.
