2 months ago Same problem for me. Error 429 over and over again, blocking absolutely any connection to Reddit. Tried troubleshooting and once I disabled Hoverzoom extension, Reddit back to working completely fine.

Same behavior.
Workaround:
Adding ||www.reddit.com/by_id/t3* to uBlocks filter list blocks those requests and solve the problems

This resolves the 429 errors but breaks the gallery-feature. galleries are then no longer viewable with HoverZoom+ when blocking the request.
