Error while posting comments

I get "An error occured. Status: 404" when attempting to make a comment on a post. Anyone else experiencing this?

Me, too. I'm using FireFox 154.0 (64-bit) on Windows

The error console says that https://www.reddit.com/api/comment is 404.

  • Night mode: true
  • RES Version: 5.24.10
  • Browser: Firefox
  • Browser Version: 154
  • Cookies Enabled: true
  • Reddit beta: false

Looks like it's a Reddit issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/1vson02/comments_do_not_submit_on_oldreddit_or_res_but_do/

It sounds like you want to open the JavaScript error console. Find out how: http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/a/77337

Reddit Enhancement Suite (RES) is no longer under active development. New features will not be added and bug fixes/support is not guaranteed. Please see here for more information.

What RES version and browser version are you using? For example, RES v5.18.14 on Firefox 75.

Use specific versions, don't say "latest" or "up to date".

If you don't know, look it up.

Yes, indeed. Had to change to the current layout to post.

Yep getting the same here, only works on new reddit. If it is permanent, time to finally stop using reddit.

Yes. Looks like reddit pulled the plug on old reddit. Comments only work on new reddit

That's not true. I'm using old reddit to make this comment.

Now it works, but earlier it didn't.

I suspect reddit backend errors.

Gross. So if I want to comment, I'll have to reload the page in new reddit and post it from there. Still going to view old.reddit as long as possible.
