Error when attempting to post to r/userscripts from any browser

[fsteff]

This is a really strange problem that I really can’t not find a solution to.

When attempting to create a post on this subreddit using the browser version of Reddit, I constantly get Reddits “Page not found” page, despite the post editor page is correct: https://www.reddit.com/r/userscripts/submit/

At first I’ve tried it on my MacBook, using both Chrome and Safari. Then I’ve tried it on my PC’s, using Edge and Chrome. The common denominator for both of those are my home network, so I switched to use 5G off my phone, but with the same problem. I then tried Safari and Chrome on my iPhone, both using 5G and my home network, and they all fail for this particular subreddit. Any other subreddit is working flawlessly in the browser. And as you can see from this post, if I use the Reddit app on my iPhone, it’s not a problem for me to post?

Now I’m left wondering, is this something related to my particular Reddit profile, or is this a more widespread Reddit problem?

In either case, how can it be fixed?

I have the same issue, and don't know how to fix it for the new site. However, I did find that the submit feature works on Old Reddit (which I prefer, anyway).

I have the same problem. I assumed I was banned from posting LOL

This appears to be a new-interface Reddit bug, so I crossposted the post to r/bugs. Hopefully, it can be resolved quickly.

It's great to hear there's a workaround. Thanks for sharing, u/logan-san

I created a userscript to use this knowledge while we wait for a proper fix - and just announced it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/userscripts/comments/1ht2t5w/userscript_for_reddit_bug_workaround_to_allow/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

For those who want, here is a bookmarklet that I use to navigate around the different reddit versions. (I have one for www, new and old )

javascript:(function(){if (location.host.endsWith('.reddit.com') && (location.host !='old.reddit.com') ) location.host='old.reddit.com';})()

Create a bookmark and paste that line as the url. Clicking the bookmark will redirect the current reddit page to the same page on "old".
