    Oh my god that was annoying! But yes. Now, I am okay.

    Firefox wasn’t letting me comment, reply to comments, or edit my comments. I even dragged my home instance’s moderator into helping me debug which I feel terrible about. (Especially because I originally described it as a federation error, only later realizing that the glitch was happening on reddthat as well as federated instances.)

    After various debugging attempts, he told me to deactivate my extensions… which I hadn’t tried for some reason… and it worked instantly. My Bionic Reader Firefox extension in particular turned out being the source of the problem. And now I feel like I’ve wasted my mod’s time trying to debug something that he had no control over, but other than that? I’m okay.

    Thanks for asking.

      That’s fine. Bound to happen sooner or later with other users anyway. Next time when the mod debug a similar issue, they’ll remember to ask the user to deactivate extensions first.
