I rarely get server errors on Reddit despite its massive scale… It’s the client which is a tire-fire. People blame React but that doesn’t have anything to do with it either. It’s just utter shit.
Exactly! The third-party apps used to load everything seamlessly.
Whatever it's coded in, the back-end of reddit is pretty robust and well-done (maybe excluding the video hosting part and whatever new laggy crap they put in)
It's the new front-end of reddit that's a huge dumpster-fire.
