Did Reddit just denylist all IPs?
I think reddit just blocked multiple IPs by mistake. On my personal device, on wifi, off wifi etc all IPs are now reporting blocked.
EDIT: old.reddit.com works, but www.reddit.com does not.
EDIT2: Looks like it's back up now.

Yup, here's the full message:
whoa there, pardner!
reddit's awesome and all, but you may have a bit of a problem.
Make sure your User-Agent is not empty, is something unique and descriptive and try again. if you're supplying an alternate User-Agent string, try changing back to default as that can sometimes result in a block.
You can read Reddit's Terms of Service here.
if you think that we've incorrectly blocked you or you would like to discuss easier ways to get the data you want, please contact us at this email address.
when contacting us, please include your ip address which is: 1.2.3.4 and reddit account
https://www.reddit.com/ is not working but https://old.reddit.com/. I wonder what got pushed by mistake.
Yep, the new Reddit interface responds with the IP block message while old.reddit.com still works for me. This is both with and without a VPN.
EDIT: It looks like it's back. I definitely want to read the postmortem for this.
That was nice. Finally admitting new Reddit sucks.
:sadface: I wished it was forever
The timing of this was perfect. I left a somewhat snarky comment to someone being a huge jerk and a few minutes later I'm IP banned. I was like, "damn that must have been an admin"
Broken here (USA) as well.
Was down for about 4 mins: https://reddit.onlineornot.com/
Was waiting for someone else to post.
I'm blocked, about 2 mins ago, in the UK
edit: now i have
upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. reset reason: overflow
Wouldn’t know. The domain is banned on my home network for general antisocial fuckery by the site owners and operators.
That’s a brilliant idea.
It went down, then came back for me. Now it's back down again (Still down as of this post)
I also got it, but when I did a hard refresh two minutes ago it worked again.
Broken from UK and Germany
apparently, blocking me direct and via VPN
working again for me
