Come on, almost every evening you get error pages. Yes they don't last more than a few refreshes, but it's simply ridiculous for a site as prominent as Reddit.

The only thing I do more than Reddit is sleep - and I do not get error pages everyday. A few years ago, yes. Now they are pretty rare. Maybe once a week.

No offense, but... you okay? How do you take care of your brain while doing something like that?

It's hard for me to tear myself away fully from social media (behold this comment), but every time I do, I notice how my brain seems to just... work better.

If you were me, you may not consider yourself to be ok.

To give a simple explanation: I'm an extreme loner. Reddit is my human connection. I've been doing it for many years. I don't like it or dislike it, it just is. I'm content. Thanks for your concern.

What are your favorite subs?
Re:Reddit is currently down by 22289d on Tuesday March 14, 2023 @08:41PM (#35161996)
sports subreddits. r/nba, r/nfl, my teams.

my city subreddit

r/chess + r/anarchychess (chess memes)

crypto subreddits

ya, those are the main ones. then all sorts of randoms. r/ProtonMail is a good random one.

Yeah I find local city subs pretty great.

Yeah, that's fair. I've been indexing high on solitude for a while (especially post-pandemic) and am actively working on re-prioritizing that these days.

> I don't like it or dislike it, it just is.

Now that's a level of Zen I can aspire to. :)

I’ve had much better experience after I switched back to the classic reddit page. Still occasionally has issues. But not nearly as bad as the default page. Maybe once every couple of weeks, I’ll get the reddit is broken page for a minute or two.

ah, i should have noted i never switched to or really tried new reddit. perhaps that has issues. old reddit has gotten very solid over time.

I’ve never experienced that and use reddit far too much.

When do you use it? Around 6-8PM GMT is prime time because both EU and US are active.

Nope.

The past couple days have been the first error messages in years.

It used to be monthly
