    Hey all!

    It looks like most of you had difficulty reaching the site for about 5 minutes, but those issues should have subsided.

    During that time, you may have been shown an incorrect error message that read:

    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.
    

    To share some additional context on what happened - we pushed a bad code change in our tooling that resulted in a significant amount of users getting blocked without doing anything wrong. So if you happened to see that error message within the last hour, don’t fret! We’ve reverted the code change that caused this error and things should be back to normal very soon if they aren’t already.
