Ask HN: Is commenting broken?

1 pointlucb1e4 comments

I can't seem to comment on anything. Looking at comments, the most recent was 9 minutes ago. Before that one, the gap between comments is at most 2 or 3 minutes, not 9. I personally get a 502 error from Cloudflare when I try to comment.

Yes, it was broken for a few minutes. Sorry about that. I was just collecting usernames from the logs so we could email the dozen or so users who were affected.

I clicked on this link expecting a conversation about commenting in code, which is broken for several reasons. Commenting on this post seems to work for me though.

Ah yes, it works for me too now. I guess I can delete it.

Edit: Delete button is there, prompts me, I click `yes` and it doesn't work...

We'll fix it. Edit: should be fixed now. Sorry for the inconvenience.
