(Reuters) – Reddit was down for thousands of users on Thursday, according to outage tracking website Downdetector.com, a day after it rolled out a fix for a software bug that prevented tens of thousands of people from accessing the social media platform.

Downdetector, which tracks outages by collating status reports from several sources including users, showed more than 70,000 reports of outages.
