Reddit appears to be mildly struggling with a sudden influx of traffic over Tor; hopefully they will make some tweaks to help it real soon now

See the image; similar overloading also seems to be affecting the Reddit Onion site.

I can’t think why it’s happening, but I’m sure they will sort it out soon. Vulnerable people are being prevented from accessing any content which is labelled as NSFW, including: alcoholism recovery, bulimia, domestic violence discussions…

Oh, and porn.

    Nothing to do with sudden surge in Tor popularity but started (IIRC) when Reddit became a publically listed company. Ad revenue and thus lack of privacy suddenly became a far higher priority. Try old.reddit
    com is far cleaner although broken in similar ways.
