Reddit Secure Connection Failed

@venkatachar Which DNS are you using on Airtel?

Just wanted to say that I'm also facing the same issue since a few days ago. It's only on Reddit though, which is strange. I'm using Google's DNS servers. I tried switching to 1.1.1.1 but it made no difference.

working for me now
edit: spoke too soon, gone again

No change here. Still getting connection reset.

Working now. Had to flush dns.

Just checked and it's not working for me.

Ok, so it's working for me now. My router had been configured to use 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4 as the DNS server, I set it back to auto so that it uses BSNL's DNS and once I made the switch Reddit loaded up fine. I don't know why it works but it does, however the site does load up very slowly.

The only good solution I've found is to use Cloudflare's WARP.

Okayyyyy...... so people try to wrap your head around this one, just tried opening reddit on different browsers with BSNL and Google DNS, it's only opening on Firefox (pretty quick) and not opening on Chrome, Brave and Edge.

Can anyone else verify this?

@CHOPSHOT That's very strange, for me it wasn't working on any browser.

@red744 Lol, at this point strange would be an understatement with the variation of problem most of us are facing with reddit.
What default BSNL DNS are you getting?
