Issues with Reddit

Unread post by Shadeclan » 2019-03-14, 18:31

I'm having issues posting anything in Reddit with Pale Moon. I have tried running in safe mode and, since I had a similar issue in Blogger, I changed the user agent from native to Gecko Compatibility to Firefox Compatibility with no luck (Blogger works best with Gecko Compatibility). Any ideas? :coffee:

"New" (redesign or how it's called) reddit or the "good ol' working" one?

Didn't know there were multi-versions.

I would assume it's the new one then (if you don't see the "get new reddit" button https://i.imgur.com/yGQWeBT.png ).

I think this should use the old one for you too, just to make sure where the problem is: https://old.reddit.com/r/MotoG/comments ... n_moto_g4/

Used the "old" link you gave me - got an error 503, which is what I got on the new Reddit when using Firefox Compatibility mode.

Any other ideas?

I would bet this is some sort of strange browser sniffing issue except I seem to be the only one having this issue.

I guess I'll have to try a blank profile, see if it's something on my end.

OK, found the issue - it's my firewall / certificate setup at work :problem:. Somehow I can get to Reddit but I can't post with Pale Moon there. I have no issues at home.

I will need to acquire the proper security certificate in order to post from work. Not sure how to go about doing that. Even if I could ask the network people at work, I'm sure they'd have no clue. :think:
