Having technical issues on Reddit? Ask here.

Are you guys actually serious right now? Is port 80 really wide open?

Anyone here actually know their stuff enough to give me a straight answer?

Google is down again. Typical.

btw that Facebook like script is absolutely nuking your page reach, just saying

What is the point of this? Why? I used that search tool constantly, mostly to find threads where I had personally commented since notifications for replies don't even exist anymore.

Reddit has been circling the drain for ages; it’s only a matter of time before it dies completely. I can't remember any significant investment in the layout, design, or features for over a decade. Back then, this was one of the most influential sites on the American internet. It's a massive waste because an incredible amount of collective knowledge is archived here. There is zero reason for this site to fail—Reddit is basically the only competition left, and even then, it caters to a different crowd.

Correct. Most forums have a like/dislike button (or thanks/angry), but this site never implemented one. Those buttons improve content quality because people crave online karma; even someone like a McDonald's regular would feel embarrassed having tens of thousands of posts and only single-digit thanks. This Facebook button nonsense is disgusting and nobody will actually use it.

The site is absolutely ruined.

I find myself returning to this particular thread quite often, as the discourse here tends to oscillate between profound insight and complete absurdity. It is truly fascinating—though perhaps a bit exhausting—to observe how certain individuals navigate these discussions. I was reading through some of the previous commentary earlier, and I couldn't help but reflect on what Casey Bennett mentioned regarding the current state of the industry; there is such a palpable sense of uncertainty hanging over us all right now, isn't there? It reminds me deeply of those long, drawn-out debates we used to see back when everyone seemed to have an opinion on every minor regulatory shift. Even when someone like Justin Morales5 offers a perspective that feels somewhat disconnected from the practical realities we face on the ground, one cannot deny the passion behind the argument. There is an earnestness here that I genuinely appreciate, even if it occasionally veers into the overly dramatic. I believe we owe it to ourselves to maintain this level of rigorous, albeit spirited, inquiry if we ever hope to reach any semblance of clarity. kaže:
Does anyone have any insight into why the ability to search through my own past posts and active threads has been disabled under the profile and statistics section? I find it quite perplexing that such a fundamental utility for navigating one's own contributions is currently unavailable. 🤔

wearybison63 said:The search engine functionality has been taken offline once again.

And when exactly is this going to be activated? I’m asking because I am currently dealing with the exact same issue myself.

It’s anyone’s guess, really.

Is the search function still down? I’m honestly wondering why this is happening and when we can expect it to be back up and running. It feels a bit pointless to have a forum without a working search tool, especially since I can't easily track down my own threads or find specific posts I've made in the past.

Do you honestly believe you can just wander into any discussion you please? That’s exactly what subscriptions are for.
You subscribe to the specific threads that actually interest you or that you intend to participate in.

Well, since the search function is clearly broken right now, you're basically out of luck. Unless, if you can actually remember what I told you before, you should just start manually hunting through the subforums for topics.

And look, I already pointed out a few days ago that the system is incredibly hit-or-miss; it works one minute and fails the next, and nobody seems to know when it'll be back up, when it'll go down again, or how long this whole mess is going to drag on.
When it actually decides to function, just make sure to subscribe to every single thread you're active in so you won't have to rely on that useless search tool ever again.

Just click on Options in the top left corner and you'll see a full list of all your subscribed threads and subforums.

ok

I don't see any message either. 🕺

Alright, I'll cut to the chase,

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 100663296 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 349079 bytes) in /var/www/html/forum/public/showthread.php(2171) : eval()'d code on line 133

So, we've got like 4K people hitting the site at once... is that why we're seeing those 503 errors?

Also, Port 80 is acting super glitchy—it keeps bouncing back and forth between 80 and 443 whenever someone tries to log in or drop a post. Total mess.

Later,

Look, I'm not trying to drag this out. I have every intention of passing this along, but for heaven's sake, give me a little bit of context first.

I can't get anything to show up in my signature—can someone please fix this? ☕

Based on those symptoms, I’d say the diagnosis is that you’ve basically signed up for a lifetime of permanent self-isolation.

You the server admin? Shoot me a DM.

I don't even know where to start with this one. Seriously. It’s just... wow.

Server admins don't exactly mingle with the common folk out in the streets. You can shoot me a DM whenever you want, but please, for the love of god, just lay out the details—what, where, when, and how long this is supposed to take...

Today, I’ve attempted to log in about five separate times, and yet, nothing. It simply refuses to recognize my credentials. Eventually, I manage to get through, but the moment I click on a new thread, the system kicks me right back out, forcing me into this repetitive cycle of logging in three or four times just to stay afloat. Essentially, every single time I try, the interface gives me that polite little message thanking me for signing in, but if you glance at the top of the page, it clearly shows I'm still a guest. Then, after all that effort, I actually compose a post and hit submit, only to be met with another notification claiming I'm not even logged in.

Is there any way this can be rectified?

bluesurfer66 said:Man, I tried logging in five times today and nothing. It just won't take it. Then finally, I get in, go to click on a new thread, and boom—kicked right back out. I'm having to log in like 3 or 4 times just to do anything. Basically, it keeps saying "thanks for logging in," but at the top of the screen, it still shows me as a guest. Then I try to post a reply and hit send, and it tells me I'm not even logged in again.

Can someone please fix this?

Just hit "remember me"

It says here that the search function has been disabled. When certain threads really start picking up steam, I find myself constantly missing out on seeing who’s actually quoting me. Would it be possible to put together some kind of list or feature where you can easily see everyone who has quoted you on the forum?
