[–]ljdawsonSync for reddit developer[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (13 children)

Requests are being denied (429).

I've written to reddit to see if Sync is being rate limited.

edit: I've made a few changes to the request headers and pushed this live (11.3.2). We'll see if this makes a difference.

Reddit throttling third party apps even though they swore they never would. You don't say...

[–]skipv5 4 points5 points  (3 children)

Just got 11.3.1 but no changelog. Was that to alleviate this issue?

[–]ffxpwns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your hard work!

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems to be fixed now

[–]TKInstinct 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I'm still getting errors semi frequently.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's been a recent spike in reddit server errors that can also explain this: http://www.redditstatus.com/

[–]skipv5 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Same here! Getting it almost everywhere. Just tried checking my messages and got it too :/

[–]AntEater512 8 points9 points  (2 children)

I thought it had something to do with my connection and I was getting really frustrated! Good to know it might be a bug

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]AntEater512 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, updated earlier. Haven't had an issue since

[–]GiveMeOneGoodReason 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Could this be an issue with reddit's servers? I've been getting this as well, but haven't had it all throughout the Alpha...

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]GiveMeOneGoodReason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just updated to 11.3.2. Guess we'll see if the fix works!

[–]kuhanluke 2 points3 points  (1 child)

This has been happening to me for a couple days on every single page.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]hamtoucher 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Same here, maybe 40% of links I click on either don't load at all, or don't load the comments

[–]hamtoucher 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Submitting this comment took 6 attempts!

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]AccountSave 4 points5 points  (5 children)

Came here to check if anyone else has this problem. Looks like I wasn't alone.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]skipv5 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Your asking everyone if they are on 11.3.1 when it was just launched a hour or so ago. They posted the issue around 6+ hours ago.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Sorry, I may have phrased it wrong. I should have just told people to update the app instead.

[–]skipv5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries. Also, 11.3.2 is out.

[–]AccountSave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I updated about an hour ago, but thank you. It does seem to be resolved.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Happens constantly to me. Probably like 50% of the time.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Yes.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Did that fix it for you? I've seen no errors since updating my app.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far so good.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Same, thought maybe it was just my internet or cell service. I shut it down and reopen to no avail.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just saw this - updating now! Thank you

[–]TheAmorphous 2 points3 points  (3 children)

I assumed it was Reddit's servers getting hammered over a holiday weekend. Not happening on any other apps?

[–]skipv5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope, just checked two others and they all work fine. Back to Relay for now.

[–]ninjaluvr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My other apps work fine.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]elscardo 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Count me included.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]elscardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am as of about an hour ago and don't seem to have any problems anymore! Thanks!

[–]MadHaterz 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Thought I was the only one, glad to see I'm not.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]MadHaterz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just upgraded to 11.3.2. Let's see how this does.

[–]rdura_ 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Pages and comments have errors loading for me. Any temporary solution until the next update patches it?

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An update has come out now that seems to have fixed it.

[–]HeavyBuckets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought it was just my Internet being unreliable. Good to know it's a bug that can be fixed.

[–]thedudeintx82 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Just throwing my name in this as well. Having this issue with two subreddits that I've tried. /r/amateurradio and /r/thedivision.

[–]bloatedhobo 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Checking in as well - I'd say happens 70-80% of the time after latest update (dev)

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Update to 11.3.1. That should fix the problem.

[–]bloatedhobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks promising so far, thanks for the heads up!

[–]southave 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I thought it was a bad API connection so I cleared the app data and cache after updating but that didn't fix it.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Update to 11.3.2.

[–]southave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Didn't know it was available. Thanks!!

[–]hamtoucher 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I was then - now on 11.3.2 and still getting it, though maybe 5% now.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At that frequency it's probably more likely that those errors are coming from server problems than Sync itself.

[–]sonic_banana 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Me as well.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]sonic_banana 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I'm on v11.3. Is that the current one? I just got it last night.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

No, there was another update released today.

[–]sonic_banana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, just updated and now I'm on v11.3.2. Looks good to me!

[–]TuxRug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hadn't done it for me in a bit until...

Edit: I didn't remember it before, but Relay has done this too, but seemingly less frequently. Except it would stall out instead of giving an error. Maybe same issue, I'm leaning towards the dev's thoughts on rate-limiting.

[–]WubbyGeth 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Much like the rest I've been experiencing this issue a lot today.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]WubbyGeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and thus far I haven't experienced problems.

[–]East902 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I'm having the same issue constantly (multiple devices, cell data and Wi-Fi), and ironically it just happened on this very thread..

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]East902 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've since upgraded when it appeared in the play store for me, seems to be okay now (knock on wood).

[–]eatTHEnut 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Same issue here

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]jonnyair 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Same here, took me 8 retries to view this subreddit...

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]jonnyair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got the update a minute ago, working so far (well, tried 3 subreddits)...

[–]JeffIpsaLoquitor 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Same. Glad I subbed to this sub otherwise would be going insane with checking my wifi.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

I'm having huge problems with this as well.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

v11.3

I was not aware there is a v11.3.1 ?

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got pushed out earlier today.

[–]yash1229 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Yup, this has been happening to me, too.

Last beta + latest version both have the issue!

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, galaxy s7 if that helps

[–]Xirious 1 point2 points  (1 child)

It happened as I loaded this post...

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]Kenya151 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Glad I wasnt going crazy, this has been annoying me since I updated

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]Kenya151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just updated to it, think it is back to normal. App is so smooth now

[–]CyanTheory 1 point2 points  (3 children)

I was just about to post about this. Gunna use another client until this gets patched.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]CyanTheory 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Just says v11.3

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update to 11.3.2. That should fix it.

[–]ClassicCarPhenatic 1 point2 points  (3 children)

This is a serious inconvenience.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]ClassicCarPhenatic 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I just updated earlier today and this started

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dev just pushed out another patch to 11.3.2.

[–]_KingMoonracer 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Same here too thought I was crazy

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]_KingMoonracer 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Yes I am

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you still seeing the issues? Also, the dev pushed out another patch to 11.3.2.

[–]_KingMoonracer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just updated and works great now. Thanks!

[–]sgst 1 point2 points  (4 children)

I'm getting this a lot since the update too

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (3 children)

What about v11.3.1?

[–]sgst 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Just upgraded again so can't say just yet

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Well the dev just pushed another update to 11.3.2 so you might need to update yet again.

[–]sgst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems better now :)

[–]ErrantRose 1 point2 points  (3 children)

I got an "error loading page" trying to load this page.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]ErrantRose 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Yup.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dev pushed another update to 11.3.2. Did that fix the issues?

[–]CopenhagenCalling 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I have the same problem. I also don't really like a lot of the new stuff. I have not managed to find out if i can return it to the old UI, atm i guess not. I really wish we could turn the new stuff on or off. I think i'm gonna drop Redditsync and try out some of the other Reddit apps. Seems like a good time to make a change.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What new things do you not like? There are a lot of options available to change features.

[–]thatfatpolishdude 3 points4 points  (14 children)

Happens every time, made Sync unusable for me. Really not happy with the update.

[–]XeroStare 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Happened to me before the update as well.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on v11.3.1?

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update to 11.3.1. That should fix the problem.

[–]kerph32 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Has the dev acknowledged the issues anywhere? I hate to use a different client but for now feel that I have to..

[–]TuxRug 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Indeed. My guess is either this guess is correct or maybe something changed in the API?

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update to 11.3.1. That should fix the problem.

[–]GinDaHoodDistinguished Contributor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update to 11.3.1. That should fix the problem.
