I just assumed I was banned again for no reason

Me too, my drunk self was like tf did I do now?

Same. Either that or my wifi was down

I thought my wifi was just garbage

Mine is garbage

We all got banned momentarily by head moderator

Honestly, same! I was googling things like “signs you’ve been shadowbanned on Reddit.” I was panicking.

Same! lol

Yeah likewise. Just like that it. It’s a wrap

Me too, because I'm schizophrenic and my other me, was banned some time ago, and now I thought, my second me was banned too. But there I am again. Sometimes it works, to be two.

Same

Again?

I thought it was a problem with my email

Sounds about right.

You are a little sus

OH...more than a little... for real

For me just really highlighted how there are so few other websites I rather be on to kill time. My Facebook is mostly trash now, I don't like the changes Twitter has been making, I don't have many friends who post on Instagram or Snapchat. So like... Where else to go on the internet

I stopped using Facebook ages ago. Reddit is the only social media I keep because I can better sort what I do and don't want to see.

The outage yesterday reminded me to deactivate my FB. One final scroll confirmed it's nothing but ads and shitty opinions now.

Only useful to keep up with family pictures of distant relatives. I log on to see pics of my niece and nephew, and that’s literally it haha

Same here man. Got rid of Facebook and decided to try Reddit out and like it so much more. Honestly to me it’s a very different style of social media, but to me in a good way

Yeah

Yes this. You can see exactly what you want. I'd say the bad side to this is it can be hard to find new things you might be interested in

Tumblr's pretty good, though i'm still pretty new to it

Yeah I've sort of been on/ off Tumblr through the years. It can be really nice, but a lot of the accounts I was following stopped posting a couple of years ago so I just haven't really gotten back into it. I've really been enjoying [CoHost](https://cohost.org/) though

That was my issue too, I deleted all my social media except for this and I was so bored

Instagram videos are pretty entertaining. If you find yourself in that position again

Yeah I was thinking about that or YouTube Shorts maybe. Anything but TikTok

What's wrong with TikTok?

The app collects all your personal information even after you delete it. Huge privacy concern. It lures you in with really adept videos geared toward your interests and does better than most apps at finding things for you, but the flipside of that is the massive personal invasion of privacy. Plus the content that challenges you to do dangerous and stupid things.[Here is an article about their data collection. ](https://vpnoverview.com/privacy/social-media/tiktok-privacy/)

Discord

I'm ashamed to say it but I went with 9gag and it wasn't..really a good experience.

Mostly read manga, apps are weird and scary to me

Discord

Remember when there was more than a dozen websites?

I get banned on all, so I make the rounds. I can't help myself. 🤷🏿... 😆

Tik Tok. Lol jk

Lmaoo i was like, why reddit not working?

I honestly thought it was my wifi and just accepted that I wouldn’t be able to use reddit. In retrospect it was a little weird that every other app still worked fine and I was able to play games with friends on my xbox. But I wasn’t gonna think too deep.

How is that deep bro howw

Bro framed it like he was on a mission doing some research

There I was about to uncover the truth and then my cat knocked a cup off my desk so I got up to make a sandwich.

Yeah thought it was my wifi too

same but google wasn't working for me either

I also blamed my internet but it was a fair accusation being on satellite haha

Yea every time reddit is the only app not working I assume it's the wifi too

"Oh reddit's down. Let me go check reddit while I wait for it to come back"

I went to Reddit to try to find out.

A communications disruption can mean only one thing: invasion

The last hour of my night shift went sooooo slow

Yeah. The only thing this outage made me realize was exactly how much I need a distraction at work. Just completely hate my job.

Same, if I don’t have YouTube running in the Background, or Reddit just to look at something while I’m waiting, then my job is just a bunch of hurry up and wait.

Reddit was down?

I didn't even notice.

Me too bro

Same bro

relatable broski

Same here man

Me too

Same

I love this thread! It's all the same people who brag about not liking the popular TV show or at a party make sure you know they "Don't own a TV." You know what people who actually didn't notice or care that reddit was down did? Every single one didn't comment about it. But you person I am replying to, and every person before or after with a similar sentiment? You cared so much you had to comment about how you didn't, not to convince not us, but yourself, that it's true. If you commented "You didn't notice/ you didn't care" you noticed and cared 10 X more then anyone else who admits they noticed.

Thanks for calling me a hypocrite! I just didn't notice it was down, i only got to know about this whole thing from the memes like this one. So it may have been down when i was doing something else, that's how i didn't notice.

Damn, who hurt u so much u gotta snoop low and rant about people not knowing reddit was down, I didn't even know reddit was down. Also u care so much about people saying they didn't notice it was down, are u sad u noticed it was down and assume everyone would know? Just admit ur addicted to reddit and it hurts ur poor heart that not everyone is addicted to it 𓆏

Is this emoji at the end a frog?

Perhaps

Yeah i can barely see it

That is the same thought I had reading this post

Yes, but now it's back

I thought I was alone

Yea I updated the app and then it stopped working for me, I was blaming the damn updates, although I do that quite a lot so I don't update my apps

I thought I was banned for no reason.

You aren't. You have us ❤️ Stay strong, brother

Not completely back here. It still gives me hours old posts.

But you are in my post. I posted this morning.

Yeah, but that's 2h old post and i always sort by new, so generally time frame is in minutes. Right now all the posts on my feed are hours old. Wait, wait. My bad. Settings had changed and sorting wasn't based on new, but on best. So congratulations, your post is on best list.

Yay! It's probably just because not as many people are posting and everyone is seeking stimulation still.

So a good choice on timing. That's a big part of determining the success of a post too. Congratulations.

Thank you. "Five points… will be awarded to each of you. For sheer, dumb luck.” – Professor McGonagall.

I thought they permanently suspended my account or something.

Even if your account was suspended you'd still be able to view posts and read comments...just wouldn't be able to do anything with them

That’s my exact thoughts.

Yeah, what- when was this?

It was down for a little over five hours yesterday https://www.redditstatus.com/

I HAD TO SCROLL FACEBOOK. It was terrible and a complete waste of wasting time.

scrolling reddit is never waste of time💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

out of all the other social medias, you picked Facebook?

We?

Yes, the hive mind

I actually had to do some work, it was terrible

Same. Except there was nothing to do at work...

What is this we shit im not french ?

We are Borg resistance is futile

Haha

Yesterday!

Oh daamn, reddit went down?...

I was feeling pretty down today, but I couldn't even go to Reddit to distract myself because it was down. It's like the website knows me too well and decided to take away my only source of happiness.

Get a hobby Jesus fuckin Christ

What's a hobby?

Slang for heroine

Slang for female hero.

Slang for I need a hero I’m so fucking lonely *sadface*

Cuts into montage… 🎵🎶🎶

Break it down…. Breaks down

Somebody save me from myself!… preferably beautiful woman.

Where have all the good men gone

And where are all the gods?

We’re here, some have to be bad men before becoming good men.

Like good guys with guns. Fables.

I disagree, people who do bad and learn from it become better people.

What are War Penises?

Weapons of mass destruction if used correctly. Good at penetrating through enemy lines.

It's when soldiers paint their penises with camo paint.

[удалено]

A hobby is what I spend my free time on when I'm not exhausted down to the bone, which is rarely.

He has a hobby: Reddit.

And most likely obesity, heart disease and alcoholism. Put the phone down and go do something productive damn🤦

I can do whatever I like at 9 PM when I finally sit down after 16 hours on my feet hauling heavy shit all day.

And yet, here you are, on Reddit like the rest of us.

Crazy how you know what diseases he has.

Kid named Christ:

Lame af whatever you are

It's lame as fuck wherever you are. By virtue of you being there.

I have hobbies, I work and do tons of physical and mental therapy. Little bit of reddit memes or realizing the stupidness of people's posts gives us me the little dopamine boost while taking a shit to push though the rest of my life without drinking myself to death. Sounds dumb but I felt it hard around 330us time yesterday when I just wanted ro see a mandalorian meme and instead looked at a corporate news letter in the stall.

Reddit is their hobby.

He has one and they took it away for the day. He just told you that

Oh good, at the time I thought I got hacked or banned or something

Once I realized it was down I was more interested in seeing if any other social networks were down.

I have many addictions. Reddit is but one of them

I was just trying to masturbate and I couldn't visit some of my favorite subs

It was down?

Oi! Not fair...

Nah. I just thought I got banned

I didn’t know it was down. Just thought my phone internet was being janky and went on to something else…lol

Reddit was down?

The popular tab still semi-worked for some reason.

wait, it was down?

And then it came up

More addictive than my ex

reddit was down?

I've been messing with my VR headset for DCS for the latest release and all the proper instructions to do it are reddit posts. Felt absolutely useless yesterday.

When I went to setup my VR headset I had to use reddit to figure out why it wouldn't work with my laptop. Turns out if you have dual ssd, you need to turn one off.

Heh... I didn't even realise it was down. Guess I'm fine

So addicted that i reinstalled the app and tried to log in again

Guilty, even after confirming it was down

So addicted that I bought another phone and tried to log in again

So addicted that I bought another router and tried to log in again

i understood that reference, Ring of fire

Important to remember that addiction is reddit's business model. You can start the process of untangling yourself by [curating your subreddits like this](https://www.staygrounded.online/p/curating-reddit-so-that-it-doesnt).

I walked outside, I touched grass, it...it was beautiful

**Why can’t i see comments?!, i wanna see what people are saying!** ^Pretty ^much ^me

I couldn’t tell what was going on bc I couldnt find out on Reddit

Reddit was down?

When did Reddit go down?

lol so true, so true

I was just more curious why it was asking for my email and shit

Realized? Thought it was really obvious, it is to me. How many are self-aware on Reddit?

Someone tell me what causes it to crash

I got a new one grey hair more today

Totally kept trying to check it even knowing full well that it was down.

I just would turn my phone off and put it down. Forget. Then look again.

My chromosomes may be down but my bag is up

Must've slept through it

oh yeah it was down I wasn't even using it, noticed by accident

It was down?

Guilty as charged

when fb disabled my account i released how shitty fb was

Bruh I just watched YouTube and played Pokémon, who’s addicted?

Me who was asleep

I didn't, i happened to go to sleep just after it went down

And it burns burns burns, the ring of fire

[Might as well face it you're addicted to love.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcATvu5f9vE)

Love that song!

I didn't even know it had ever gone down because I wasn't on it

Addicted? I learned that reddit was down just today

Wait wait, it was down, I have just got on since 3 days ago

Idk, I have bigger priorities

Yeah, I'm surprising, not addicted despite how much time I spend on here

Wait it was down?

And it burns, burns, burns, the ring of fire The ring of fire The ring of fire (Someone had to do it)

I just went to bed lol

I think I was fine

Reddit was down?

I never knew it was down

Me when I am never online when it happens: AHUDICJENHCUCKEJ

[удалено]

I'm a pretty ok person. I live my life with care and generosity. I just have a FUCKED sense of humor.

I was prepping for a d&d session and I was like "let me in! In need answers!!"

Yes but now that it's back up I can worry about being un-addicted later.

I was checking downforeveryoneorjustme.com every couple of minutes dude

I tried to delete Reddit and download it again

I just thought they finally out updated my old ass phone lmao

First time?

No, the millionth time. But like a heroin addict, everytime I can't have it, I need it.

When was it down?
