Reddit has resolved a problem with its website, the social media company said on Thursday, after an outage impacted thousands of users for about an hour.
The outage began around 10 a.m. ET and affected more than 70,000 users in the United States at its peak, according to Downdetector.com, which tracks outages by collating status reports from several sources including users.
“An update we made caused some instability. We reverted and are seeing Reddit ramp back up,” the company said in an emailed response, a day after announcing it had fixed a software bug that was preventing tens of thousands of people from accessing the platform.
Reddit’s status page confirmed the latest issue that affected its website at 10:51 a.m. ET.
Co-founded by Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian in 2005, Reddit is a platform where users share links and participate in discussions within interest-based communities called subreddits.
