Update: the bug was rescheduled to 0.173.
@eransharv After talking to Gildon, it appears like the docs are wrong.
the field events
should be replaced with tags
.
However, there still seems to be an issue with broken links that doesn’t reproduce 100%.
WIth my account, it reproduces 100%.
WIth Eliran’s account, it reproduces 100%.
With Gildon’s account, it never reproduces.
When not logged in, it also never reproduces
After further investigation, it appears like reddit’s “new reddit” UI has an encoding issue.
communicating with gildon over best solution
OK so please update if anything else should be fixed in the docs or in our side, except changing events
to tags
in the docs (already fixed).
thanks
@eransharv bottom line, reddit’s new UI has a bug that we need to either have a workaround for (via the platform) or have reddit to fix.
here’s a sample share I did to show the case: Reddit - Dive into anything
Quoting gildon’s explanation to the problem:
the issue is the spaces
it re-encodes%20
to%2B
this is the redirect URL reddit generates

Gildon said he’ll discuss with Tom & Dudu regarding what’s the best solution to the problem.
OK, thanks. Keep me updated here (or more accurate - let’s both of us keep this ticket up to date).
afaik, the fix from your end was introduced in 0.173
we’ve tweaked our solution accordingly and the issue was resolved
