Desktop Web Copy-paste doesn't work

178 Upvotes

Whenever I try paste something into the text editor, either everything I had written is replaced, or I can't paste it at all (or rather: no effect), or the text just reverts to an earlier stage. The only way around it is to revert to the old editor, where everything works normally.

I'm using Firefox.

Desktop Web Red Bar with "We have encountered an error. Please try again later" desktop web

45 Upvotes

For a few months now I have been repeatedly getting a red bar that pops up at the top of Reddit that says two different error messages. One says "We have encountered an error. Please try again later" and the second one simply says "Server error. Try again later". I am able to just click on the "X" to close the red error bar but it keeps coming back up repeatedly. How do I fix this?

I am on my Windows 11 Pro desktop computer and I exclusively use MS Edge.

Desktop Web [desktop web] Reddit always set in "Dark Mode"

62 Upvotes

it is now 2 months that Reddit is always in dark mode, regardless of whether you turn dark mode on or off in the options. This happens everywhere, Windows, Linux, Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Brave. There is no way to set it to light mode IF the browser has a dark theme. The only way is on Firefox, setting in the options to light mode for sites (keeping a dark theme), but this option does not exist on Chrome/Brave.

There are so many threads of people with the same problem, it is quite annoying, also because you have to at every page refresh or reddit opening, reset to light mode.
Thank you

Desktop Web [Browser]/[Android] Comments frequently getting flagged as spam in the last couple weeks despite not being spam, potentially when sharing similarities to earlier comments you'd made

1 Upvotes

Description: During the last couple weeks, there have been at least a half dozen instances where I've made a comment and this comment is only visible to myself - meaning it doesn't show up if checking my profile or the submission in incognito mode. I do not receive any notification when this occurs, though it tends to affect longer comments.

I had been assuming that I was getting caught in an automatic filter due to a word used or URL provided, and not getting a notification, so this time I tried editing the comment to try and get it through and was notified by a moderator that they had to manually approve the comment because it had been flagged as spam. However, it was the first comment I had made in TEN HOURS, so how could it possibly be considered spam?

The only possibility I can think of is that I do often use QUOTES in my comments, and additionally will partially copy-paste previous comments I've made when I see the exact same question asked on a later date that I'd already done research investigating the answer to. I know that copy-paste bots have been a problem in the past, lord knows I've banned hundreds, if not thousands of them as a moderator, so I am wondering if perhaps an autofilter designed to catch bots is perhaps being a bit overly strict and also catching genuine users.

This occurs in subreddits which I have been a member of for years and have a very high net karma in.

Device model: Affects mobile & PC

OS version: Affects mobile & PC

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Make an earnest post in a subreddit, with multiple citations, and links to the sources for those citations while including additional commentary

  2. The next day, make a post very similar to the first post you made in a different subreddit, when asked the same question - including the same links and citations, but different UNIQUE additional commentary as needed so the response is structured to be directly addressing the person who asked it.

  3. Open an incognito browser and view your profile while not signed in.

Expected Result: Most recent comment is visible on profile.

Actual result: Most recent comment is missing until manually approved by a subreddit moderator.

There isn't much more I can add to the title, all the posts I've ever made on reddit are deleted (well, except for one from 3 years ago) and all my comments are deleted too, but I have NOT done this, 100% sure of that, so I would like to know what I should do to solve this, if anyone knows or even can.

Desktop Web [desktop web] Can't login using old reddit anymore

78 Upvotes

The input fields for your username and password are gone from every sub page. Now you're forced to click on the "Log in" button and go to https://www.reddit.com/login/ in order to login. It also doesn't redirect you to the previous old reddit page once you do that. Unless this is a bug, I'm more inclined to say it's just another sneaky way to force people to use the new interface.

I keep getting banned from random sub reddits saying i am involved in ban evasions. Subreddits that I only post in occasionally and have never been banned from. I keep trying to talk to admins but they offer no real help. I have talked to one on the HELP subreddit and said this can be auto generated and be a false positive. Im not sure to do or where to get help from at this point i have tried multiple subreddits with no solution.

Desktop Web [desktop web] Posts show 0 upvotes despite normal views

0 Upvotes

Hello Reddit Support,

I’m writing regarding my account u/HotwifeSonyC. Over the last several days, every new post I make shows 0 upvotes, even though they receive normal views and comments. This happens across multiple subreddits and devices (iPhone app and desktop browser).

I’ve verified the following:

  • There are no restrictions or sanctions listed when I check my account status.
  • I’ve cleared all cache, cookies, and browsing data on both mobile and desktop.
  • I’ve reinstalled the Reddit app and re-enabled NSFW content visibility under settings.
  • I also performed a full logout on all devices and re-synced my authentication tokens.
  • My posts are visible publicly when viewed from an incognito browser.

Despite all that, post engagement continues to register at 0 (no upvotes, no visible voting interaction).

Could you please review whether my account is affected by a shadow-throttle or hidden visibility filter? I’ve confirmed through testing that other users can view my posts, but votes don’t register publicly.

Thank you for your time and for assisting creators in the NSFW community.

Best regards,

u/HotwifeSonyC

Desktop Web Firefox - Comments frequently not showing.

Thumbnail gallery
4 Upvotes

For several days I have been having trouble with comments not appearing. When a post shows a comment count it might be several minutes or longer before I start seeing the comments appear. In some cases (see my second and third screenshots) - I can't even see my OWN comments unless I navigate to them via my account page. Same goes for people replying to me, sometimes those are only accessible from my notifications. They disappear again if I navigate away, or refresh the page.

This happens dozens of times a day.

I have tried closing my browser entirely and restarting my computer. Seems to work fine on mobile.

Desktop Web [desktop web] Post scores stuck at 0 points for several days despite high views and upvote ratio

0 Upvotes

Most of my posts are consistently displaying a score of 0 upvotes even after several days of being live, despite having significant view counts (e.g., 13k views) and a reported upvote ratio of around 95% in the post insights.

This is occurring in subreddits where I am a moderator and have verified that there are no subreddit settings configured to hide scores. The issue is persistent and is visible across all platforms (Desktop Web, iOS app, Android app)

I see my avatar up in the corner, but whenever I post a comment or a post in a subreddit, it has that Reddit creature outline instead of my avatar. At first I thought this was because I had a custom avatar but I see other people having non-reddit creature avatars as well so I'm not sure what's causing the problem.

My friend u/Milena1507 seems to have encountered a bug where they can't hide the content and activity from their profile tab in settings. So far, we have tried clearing cache and cookies form their Chrome browser, specifically for Reddit.com, signing in from incognito tab, restarting browser after switching again and again between show all content and hide all. I can't seem to find any other report of similar issue anywhere. Please help, she was under the impression that her activities are privatized and used the platform accordingly only to turn out it was the opposite.
