Reddit returns a 403 page with content "Blocked" right now for many firefox users.

Apparently not with Chromium. Probably a blocking mishap ongoing (as of this posting) at reddit.

Just came here to see if I was the only one seeing that. HN never disappoints.

It seems to work fine for me.

How many is 'many'?

Same here, thought it must be me! Related to the earlier http3 issue?

Good to know I'm not the only one. I thought I was IP banned or something. It works when accessed with Edge (chromium)

*EDIT:* Looks like it's back up.
