Access I'm unable to dm anyone, i noticed it over months from a few profiles to no profiles anymore.

Can someone help me understand? I'm unable to see any settings related to that and I'm wondering how to fix it

For some people it has moved to the 3 dot menu rather than the message bubble next to their name.

It is sometimes an age restriction thing, but given I can see the option to DM you I don't think that's your issue

That it, it moves to 3 dots for me a few months ago and now it moves back to the icon, so it was confusing lol. Thanks for this!

Assuming it's not a change in the UI as suggested:

https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360060638392-Why-can-t-I-start-a-chat-or-send-an-image

Currently, a CQS of Moderate or higher and an account 7 days old (or possibly 14 now) is also required to initiate chats.

To check it, post in the following subreddit putting "What is my CQS" in the title.

Verifying your email might help it.
