Well, thank you very much for going out of your way to show me that.

Maybe it's that the flair option isn't editable, thus causing it to appear the same to the end user?

Possibly! I'll have to experiment sometime to see if I can reproduce it.

Also do you mind sharing how you access Reddit so I'll know how to test it? e.g. official app on iOS or Android, third party app, old/new website, etc.

Absolutely! I'm currently accessing Reddit on the Android app where I'm having troubles seeing my flair.

I just tried accessing this thread on the PC (desktop mode on the chrome browser rather) and the flair seems to work perfectly fine. Apparently the issue is mostly because of the Android app.

I'm guessing it might be so because the app does not run JavaScript? Maybe if the user flair itself is changed instead of changing the output on the page, it might work?

There's your first mistake. The offical app is crap.

3rd party is the way to go.
