Screenshots of reddit.com/r/all on mobile as it appeared immediately after loading (did not scroll), taken at 12:34 and 12:40 PST; look what suddenly disappeared from the #1 post spot! That’s a rather specific “server error”…

I happened to take the first screenshot (12:34) because I thought it was suspicious enough that they were suddenly dealing with an unspecified “error” right as bad news about the site hit the top of r/all. Then a few minutes later (~12:38) the site didn’t load at all. A few minutes after that, the bad press post is gone from r/all. If you go to the post now (https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/1jl6smd/elon_musk_pressured_reddits_ceo_on_content/), it says “Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/politics” (marked as “off-topic”).

    It could have changed in the last year (I left in late 2023 personally) but I don’t think thats the case, also the other comic would have disappeared too if it was.

      The comic post is still shown as it wasn’t viewed, indicated by it’s white title rather than gray title
