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.

    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.

          Probably best for people like that to never be in charge of anything
