Nah I think they just knew there'd be a drop in traffic and scheduled some maintenance, lol

If you read the article there's a quote that distinctly mentions unexpected issues not planned maintenance.

Yes. Let us trust what Reddit staff say about it. That feels logical.

I mean in this case, you can decide between some theory based on no information at all but unaffiliated, or based on all information but biased.

There's still a good chance that the downtime is unexpected, downtime in general is never good for a site that earns money by people being on it.

So I think the "unexpected" case is still more likely than it being intentional.
