happy times.

I’m having this error too. A few minutes before this error I was getting an expired token error, restarted the container and now this is the only error that shows. Could likely be an issue on Reddit side.

Edit: There’s some degraded performance on Reddit right now, https://www.redditstatus.com/

Is it just me or does https://old.reddit.com/ not even load at the moment?

Tells me I'm blocked, but that's normal (for me as a VPN user).

[Shagon94]

https://old.reddit.com/r/all/ doesn't seem to load, or rather it loads when force clearing the cookies; perhaps they broke it?

Redlib is sporadically working again. RedditStatus shows degraded performance on some services.

Closing this (though feel free to discuss) since this is definitely a server issue.

I'm having this issue on my private instance. I run my instance behind a VPN, is this part of the issue for other people?

It’ll be happening for everyone since it’s an issue with reddit and not redlib.
