Started to get this message when accessing Reddit. I use LibreWolf as a browser, which does indeed provide a more generic user agent to combat fingerprinting, but nothing out of the ordinary either (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/119.0). Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: seems to have resolved itself. Thanks for confirming I wasn’t doing anything wrong. Let’s hope this isn’t some new algorithm to test if for insufficient fingerprinting so Reddit can kick ad-resistant users.

    RiF just kicked me out. I think reddit is trying to do another sweep to break unofficial apps/plug-ins/etc.

        I’m temp banned for reporting spam

        Funny how that works, isn’t it?

        I got perma-banned for “mod abuse” for reporting too much misinformation.

            this shit happens here, too. capricious bans not for breaking the rules but for hurting mod feelings, OR, literally just reporting each spam comment. swear to god, i got banned for reporting all the copy-pasted comments left by a user and the reason was abusing the report button.

            peggy lou baldwin wasn’t happy.

      It was still working for you until now? I uninstalled it several weeks ago because I couldn’t get anything. Kinda makes me want to reinstall it and try again.

        My RIF hasn’t worked for months, but I think there is a way to patch it with Revanced? IDK, I haven’t tried it. I do miss the porn though.

        Infinity works last I checked, it just gets rate-limited really hard, so it’s hard to read comments. You also can’t sign in anymore, so no more interaction.
