Looks like Reddit has been down for the last 30'ish minutes. I'm wondering if they're either trying to change some platform features while using the blackout as a distraction, or if they're working to recover some of the larger subreddits who have entered the protest.

Or who knows, maybe they have decided to join the blackout themselves? /s

"Blackout? There's no blackout. In fact we had so much traffic today that our servers couldn't handle it! Also Reddit users love me and think I'm awesome."
