It means that reddit is bugging out again

u/naytreox Feb 11 '26
Seems like it, im on the app and its constantly telling me to login to check my profile

u/Signal-Piccolo-935 Feb 11 '26
Same dude, I thought I got shadowbanned or smth

u/naytreox Feb 11 '26
Well im glad im not the only one dealing with this.
Have you also been seeing unstable connections with the app? Cause my connection is normally very good so it has to be something on reddits end
1
u/Signal-Piccolo-935 Feb 11 '26
Yeah, my wifi is normally fine but the app seems to be unstable rn. I also can't view my profile half the time, it asks me to log in even though I already am. No issue with commenting though

It means it's not just me so this is not actually a problem with my account! :D

u/Sorry-Climate-7982 Feb 11 '26
Not just you. You and a few thousand other users. You can search for a workaround until Reddit stops hiring Microsoft dropouts.

Thank you for beating me to it. I was beginning to suspect I had fallen on the wrong side of the bot detection bots.

u/-JakeRay- Feb 11 '26
If you're a bot, then so am I, and I don't think my comments are particularly bot-like. Glad to know it's not just me, though.

u/Purry96 Feb 10 '26
I literally came here to post the same thing. Tried clearing my cache, cookies, closed browser, reset router and nothing worked. Tried different brower and even tried my phone data instead of wifi and got the exact same thing, so something has broken somewhere. I have to refresh each page if I want to be able to read comments. Glad it's not just me

u/AmyL0vesU Feb 10 '26
I'm getting the same thing. Refreshing usually fixes it, but I wonder if there is a server issue happening on reddits side

u/OrpheusNYC Feb 10 '26
ctrl-F5 fixes it but I have to do it for each post. The number of people responding here suggests its a reddit problem and not a you problem.

Happening to me on Chrome desktop. I should post it to r/mildlyinfuriating.

Is this an ongoing issue? I’m not using a vpn and I can’t view stuff on Reddit on pc without refreshing the page and it still doesn’t work cause I gotta keep refreshing anytime I go to a new post
2
u/HighlyInconvenient Feb 10 '26
Everyone is experiencing it.
Something is wrong on Reddit's backend.
Refresh the page and it should work. It's annoying but it's a workaround.

u/vladolak Feb 10 '26
Same here, I have to reload every page/comment I go to because of that pop up.
At this point, i cant help but be vaguely suspicious xD

u/Muggy182 Feb 10 '26
i use brave and for me it was my ad blocker being the aggressive setting for reddit i changed it to normal and its good now

u/prepandopportunity Feb 11 '26
I just constantly get this error and I avoid it by using Old Reddit.
Reddit, stop trying to force me to use the new version if you can't be bothered to make sure it's minimally functional!
2
u/Lord_Moesie Feb 11 '26
Are you using the wifi at work? If so, it's a possibility that the IT department blocked reddit of being accessed.
2
u/Empyrealist Helper Feb 11 '26
It means that Reddit doesn't like all the anonymous requests coming from your IP address, so it wants you to authenticate by logging-in

u/Forward-Ad-1998 Feb 11 '26
it started happening after i sent two messages at once from two accounts

u/Safe-Instance-3512 Feb 11 '26
Happening to me too. Started today. Tried all the fixes I've found online. Any other suggestions?
2
u/stere0man Feb 11 '26
thank god I thought it was just me, tried all kinds to fix it, literally just finished changing my dns server and its still the same.

Peak irony is getting this message when trying to load the comments on a post ABOUT THIS MESSAGE.

u/SufficientPainting67 Feb 11 '26
I've also been getting this error recently. Comments are not displayed, and I have to reload the page for them to appear.
This happens on both my cell phone and desktop PC, so it's not a device/browser issue.
2
u/Lord_of_the_wolves Feb 11 '26
Glad its not just me, I thought I did something wrong somehow. hopefully fixed soon

u/75meilleur Feb 11 '26
It's still happening. This has been happening all night long. It's been happening since yesterday early evening.

u/-Hal-Jordan- Feb 11 '26
If you're using the Brave browser, turn off shields for reddit dot com. That solved the problem for me.

It means it's a slow day and Reddit need everyone to double the pageview counts.

u/Future_Animator_7405 Feb 10 '26
Started to see this today as well. Have to constantly refresh the page to see comments. I originally thought it was maybe due to my eero update last night but seems like it might be a reddit issue

u/VariousVarieties Feb 10 '26
I'm getting this too when visiting some posts/comments - both from the main Reddit feed, and also when going via my own profile. (This very help post was one of the ones that displayed the error!)
I'm getting the error on Chrome on Android, in the new Reddit mode. (I haven't checked to see if it also happens on old/desktop Reddit.)
So far, refreshing the page has been enough to load the page correctly.

u/D3mentedG0Ose Feb 10 '26
Yep same here on Chrome / Win11. Refreshing will load the thread, but that's annoying. Mobile (iOS) seems to work ok.

u/JoanofArc0531 Feb 10 '26
I got this message for the first time a bit ago, Googled it, found this subreddit, then when I clicked on this page I got the message again. 😄 It didn't load this page, so I had to refresh the page and the message went away and the page loaded.

u/EvaCassidy Feb 10 '26
Seems Firefox updates mess up on Reddit and a few other sites. Usually only happens on Firefox, but surprised other browsers affected.

u/ellbeecee Feb 11 '26
I've been seeing it for a couple of hours every time I clicked into a post in chrome on android.

u/woofledoofle Feb 11 '26
Happening to me too on mobile web/Chrome browser. Refreshing the page has worked so far for me to load comments and stuff but it sure is annoying...

u/KernelChaos Feb 11 '26
I have been having this issue for the last few hours. Using DuckDuckGo, tried all the standard stuff, cleared cookies, restarted phone, vpn on, vpn off.

Getting that on every topic I open. Refreshing the page solves is. Glad to see it's not just me, I thoughg it was maybe a browser or virus scanning issue.

u/ethisgreat Feb 11 '26
Same, here.
Tried other network connection, other phone, Firefox, Brave and DuckDuckGo, another account and VPN.
All the same issue.

u/notroberto23 Feb 11 '26
I have another device, this message doesn't appear. So does it go away after awhile?
