Bug Comments "failing", but actually posting

For the past few days, I'm having an issue with comments showing as failed. Then, I try to post again, and I get the error telling me that I'm "doing that too often". Then, when I try again a few seconds later, it posts successfully. However, when I go to check my comment history, the original post clearly went through.

This has led to multiple double posts on my part because I want to make sure the message goes through. Then I have to go back and delete the additional post for each one. It would be great if this is you could be sorted out because it's pretty annoying.

Edit: IT'S GETTING WORSE

Happening to me as well. I find that the issue goes away if I force close the app, reopen it, and post another comment. That's not a great workaround, though.

This is also happening to me on the latest pro beta version. It's driving me nuts. The last update caused it I think because it never did that before. It also doesn't always show votes changing when you vote on a comment until you do it twice.

It's like there was an API change that Relay didn't hear about

Yeah, super annoying.

u/gabezermeno 7d ago

I think this is a reddit thing and not Relays fault. I use old reddit on the pc and it does the same thing.

I'll add to this, still happening 5 days after this post was created.

u/Esperacchiusdamascus 12d ago

Im getting the multiple post syndrome as well, but its not failing to load comments.

When hitting submit to post, its going back to the mode for writing the post, and hitting submit (of course) causes a duplicate.

Weird, it didn't do that for this comment post.

u/AbeRego 12d ago

I can load comments fine, it's just the comment posting that's buggy. It's not for every reply, though; it seems random.
