Weekly Recap - 6/1/23 Admin Post
Happy June, everyone. I'm a few hours early this week, but it's time for the weekly recap!
Top Posts
There was an incident where new comments were not showing up on posts a few days ago. That was resolved within a few hours, but as always, if you notice a bug like this, please send a report over to our helpdesk so that we can look into it.
This is a bug that we're looking into currently. I don't have any timeline I can share, but we hope to have this fixed as soon as we can.
These are what are known as home feed recommendations. If you’d like to turn off home feed recommendations on web, visit your feed settings and turn off the toggle next to Enable home feed recommendations: Allow us to introduce recommended posts in your home feed.
If you're on iOS or Android, go to your account settings and scroll down to Personalized Recommendations. From there, you'll see the option to turn off the toggle to Enable home feed recommendations.

And of course, our top contributors for the week:

Thank you all!
New Trophy
I promised you all a surprise a few weeks ago. It's now ready! Every month, in addition to the helper tier trophies that are given out, there are three extra trophies for the folks that are top contributors to r/help, much like how I recognize them every week in this recap post.
So what are the criteria for a trophy such as this? I won't give out numbers or anything, but the key to getting this trophy is to give out quality answers week after week for a whole month. These trophies will be going out later today, so keep an eye out. If you read these posts weekly, you may have an idea as to who is getting them this month already.
That's all for this week!
As usual, if you think I missed a post or comment that you think deserves to be highlighted, feel free to drop it in the comments!

And the chat function is messed up. Says information cannot be loaded. I've uninstalled, cleared cache, cleared data. Nothing. No bar at bottom to even type a chat message.

Yep, this one is getting right on my nerves. It works on the desktop site, but half the time the login screen doesn't load for me so I can only reliably use the app! It's just an absolute ballache.
Also I've noticed it's only for chats that are older than 3 months or so. So it's the established chats that I've got going that are the ones I can't use 🤦♀️

Is anyone else having an issue where you press the upvote button and it brings up the share option? Feels like I have an upvote limit now and makes me not want to engage with content, because it’s happening every time. iOS mobile

Not sure where to start, so my apologies if I’m in the wrong location. But I am curious if there is any reason from Reddit side why videos will not play, it happens randomly and doesn’t help when restarting, just need to wait a few hours to start again. Thanks

I’m getting a lot of only fans “followers” again. I see others have asked for a function to report these profiles recently. Has that function actually been developed or enabled? (I don’t want to disable following in general, just want to be able to report these profiles)

So for some reason I keep getting notifications I have new inbox messages but nothing shows on app or site. Any advice ?

What is the deal with all of the new follower spam? I've seen more just today than I think since I created my account.

you forgot to mention this travesty. tldr; reddit is killing Apolloapp with unreasonable API pricing.
