Before you start

Network blocks, community restrictions and account restrictions are different problems.

Step by step

  1. Check the official status or announcement page at https://www.redditstatus.com/. A help page is not necessarily a live status monitor.
  2. Reproduce the Reddit issue on one exit and record its time, code, stage and duration.
  3. View the same public post while signed out, then compare the signed-in result with account notifications.
  4. Compare wired, Wi-Fi or another network while changing only one condition.
  5. If the app is slow but the browser works, compare app and system proxy settings for duplication.
  6. Network blocks, community restrictions and account restrictions are different problems.

Common questions

Can switching networks fix every Reddit error?

No. Account privileges, subscriptions, file permissions and service outages require separate checks.

What should I send to support?

Share the time, client version, redacted error code and minimal reproduction. Never share a password, token, cookie or one-time code.
