While there is no official confirmation from the website of what is causing issues and outages for users, people on Downdector who are reporting the problems suggest “WSB (r/WallStreetBets) has bogged the server down.”

Others said, “reddit down again lol.” 

Someone else said, “This is the second time in less than 24 hours.”
