Probably something going wrong with their back-end.
The pressure on instances has been pretty high since the reddit migration, a lot of things could've broken along the way. I know I had to totally dump my database and rebuild my instance a little while in because something went catastrophically wrong during a software upgrade. (Backups? Where we're going we very much need backups but we won't have them because the instance was like a week old lol)
Hope nobody was posting untested code straight to production without backups... "Rollback plan? What rollback plan?"
Seriously, wtf?
