Is Reddit down? The answer appears to be a resounding yes, as users across the United States are experiencing significant outages on the platform. Reports indicate that the issues began around 2:30 p.m. EDT on April 6, 2026, with Downdetector logging nearly 15,000 outage reports by 3 p.m. EDT.

According to the data, 44% of the reported issues are related to the Reddit app, while 30% pertain to the website itself. Additionally, 15% of users have reported problems with the feed and timeline. Many users have taken to social media to express their frustrations, with one stating, “It just crashed,” while another humorously noted, “Oh, good. Thought I finally got banned.”

As the outage unfolded, users encountered a variety of error messages, including the infamous “You broke Reddit” and “Error 500: Internal Server Error.” One user described their experience, saying, “I’m using the browser version on a laptop. As of right now, images aren’t loading and I can’t give upvotes.” This highlights the widespread nature of the issues affecting both the app and the website.

Reddit’s status checker has acknowledged the situation, reporting an elevated level of errors and indicating that they are investigating the issue. This is not the first time Reddit has faced outages; however, the scale of this incident appears to be significant, affecting a large number of users simultaneously.

As of now, details remain unconfirmed regarding the cause of the outage or how long it may last. Users are left waiting for updates from Reddit, hoping for a swift resolution to restore normal functionality.

Is Discord down? This question has been on the minds of many users as reports of outages flood in from across the United States. As of late Thursday night, Discord appears to be down for hundreds of users, with many experiencing a frustrating ‘server awaiting endpoint’ error.

Reports of the outage began around 11 p.m. EDT, and by 11:45 p.m., Downdetector had logged nearly 8,000 reports of issues. Most users are reporting that their voice calls are not operational, leading to a significant disruption in communication for those relying on the platform for social interaction and gaming.

One user lamented, “Discord is down, all voice chats are not operational, tried pvt ones as well as different servers, my friends and I get stuck at the Awaiting Endpoint.” This sentiment has been echoed by many others who found themselves unable to connect with friends or continue their activities on the platform.

Interestingly, the issue appeared to resolve briefly around 11:30 p.m. EDT, only to return shortly after, leaving users puzzled about the reliability of the service. Another user shared their frustration, stating, “I was watching Dune with my boyfriend and now we can’t finish it tonight because calls are broken and streaming is just a gray box.”

As the outage continues, users are left wondering what is happening at Discord’s headquarters. One user noted, “Me and a few friends sat in VC waiting for endpoint to connect and randomly got back in VC all together, except for the people on mobile so I will say it’s quite odd whatever is going on at Discord HQ.”

Despite the widespread issues, Discord has not yet responded to the outage, leaving many users in the dark about the cause and expected resolution time. As frustrations mount, another user simply stated, “Bro they need to hurry up and fix the app I need to call my gf.”

This incident is not the first of its kind for Discord, which has a history of service interruptions. As users await updates, the situation remains fluid, and details remain unconfirmed regarding the root cause of the outage.
