Screenshots of reddit.com/r/all on mobile as it appeared immediately after loading (did not scroll), taken at 12:34 and 12:40 PST; look what suddenly disappeared from the #1 post spot! That’s a rather specific “server error”…
I happened to take the first screenshot (12:34) because I thought it was suspicious enough that they were suddenly dealing with an unspecified “error” right as bad news about the site hit the top of r/all. Then a few minutes later (~12:38) the site didn’t load at all. A few minutes after that, the bad press post is gone from r/all. If you go to the post now (https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/1jl6smd/elon_musk_pressured_reddits_ceo_on_content/), it says “Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/politics” (marked as “off-topic”).
That error means you’re shadowbanned. Try opening your profile in incognito it might be suspended
It’s not showing the error now so shrug. Also the account I’m logged in as has engaged in zero activity (no comments, no voting, just lurking) in almost a year, so I don’t know what I’d have suddenly been shadowbanned for.
Are you using Firefox?
Yes
I get these errors too. You’re not shadowbanned.
Are you on VPN? If not, they have your IP address. They probably have a device signature as well.
No it doesn’t. It happens a lot if you do not use the mobile app. I have a mod account there and my interactions are heard regardless of this error. It might be a FF thing.
No it doesn’t. I got this error earlier on a random web search in private mode, not logged in.
