Tell HN: Reddit is a nightmare but a dream for bugs

6 points by xaxaxb 4y ago ↗ HN

From my personal experience, Reddit.com is full of bugs. Right now, I'm trying to write a reply and copy some quote. The quote is getting pasted like thrice upon doing it once. CTRL + backspace is deleting words like a thresher gone haywire. Every now and then, my karma count fluctuates. Sometimes it's even 0.

I really didn't want to write this here and defame a site but I am really bound. People from Reddit Inc., if you're seeing this, please do something about it. Really it's taking me a lot of time trying to write a reply. I'm not saying this happens all the time when I open reddit but that's the point, I don't know when it'll go haywire. It needs fixing.

Are you experiencing these bugs while using old.reddit.com, depending on which front-end you're using you can try switching to the other one?

No I use the current interface. It's really buggy, I swear. The karma fluctuation (normal to 0 and back) has been happening for more than a year infact. I didn't bother to write about it much, but today, I couldn't even reply and paste a copied text properly. That's what prompted me to write here.
