Understanding Douban connection and service problems
For Douban users in China, compare Douban book and film pages, groups and accounts with the public douban.com website. A response from that hostname does not verify every signed-in account or app operation.
The checker above requests douban.com from eight configured locations and shows the responses and measurement times. Compare those observations with the actual Douban action that failed. A homepage response alone cannot verify an account, app workflow or transaction.
Other checks in community: Zhihu status check, Ameba Blog status check, Wykop status check, Nairaland status check. Compare results separately; these links do not establish a shared outage.

Where to report problems with Douban
Open Douban help / reporting. Use the provider's customer-service or account-help route for the affected product. Sign-in may be required for private account questions.
Details to include in your report
Board/topic URL, read/post/login step, browser/app and time; do not publish private messages or identity evidence.
Attach the checker’s downloaded JSON if it helps show the hostname, regional responses and original timestamps. Describe what happened in your browser or app as well. A report sent to WebsiteDown.org is not automatically forwarded to Douban.
What to check when Douban is not working
These are troubleshooting comparisons, not claims that Douban is currently experiencing a particular incident.
Start with the action that failed
Compare a public subject page with group posting and preserve drafts; content moderation is not a platform-health verdict.
Narrow down the affected service
Preserve unsent posts before refreshing. Account verification, moderation and individual content restrictions need different handling from connection failures.
Read the actual checker response
A 403 Forbidden or 429 Too Many Requests means the host answered but refused or limited that request. A timeout gives no HTTP response. Keep those outcomes separate and check the available-region count before treating the result as broad evidence.
How to check if Douban is down
- Compare the website response. Open douban.com in your browser and run the website check. Compare the time and error; a homepage response does not verify every feature.
- Test the feature that failed. Compare a public subject page with group posting and preserve drafts; content moderation is not a platform-health verdict.
- Check for a different cause. Preserve unsent posts before refreshing. Account verification, moderation and individual content restrictions need different handling from connection failures.
- Keep useful report details. Board/topic URL, read/post/login step, browser/app and time; do not publish private messages or identity evidence.
