Why can’t I see notifications unless I turn on push notifications… this update is really annoying

This whole thing is so frustrating… now I have to enable push notifications just to see my notifications?

I’ve had push notifications on, and it worked fine until today… now I’m just seeing the same prompt to turn them on. Tried turning it on and off, but I keep getting an error. Guess the servers are down?

If you’re curious, this site lets you check if there are issues going on:

Looks like you’re right… here’s what they’re saying:

@Weston
Six hours later and still waiting… thanks for keeping us posted though.

@North
I’m getting the same thing… tried to toggle it and keep hitting an error. Seems like it’ll probably get fixed soon.

Honestly, I’d rather have no notifications than be forced to turn on push. Had this issue before and it fixed itself, so maybe just wait it out.

Opened the app, saw this post… glad I’m not the only one dealing with this.

Looks like Reddit’s having a rough day:

Bet Trump’s got something to do with this

It’s probably because the site’s flooded with posts from the left melting down

Wake me up when the left storms the Capitol… not holding my breath.

This just happened to me…

It’s trying to get me to sign up for email updates… hard pass.

Can’t believe this… I checked my notifications right after seeing this post and sure enough, same thing.

Good to know I’m not alone on this .

Just stumbled across this post… looks like others have the same issue. I tried turning notifications on, but it didn’t help.

Is there a way to roll back to the previous app version or is this just a server thing?

Nope, you’re not the only one dealing with this.

I noticed this today too. Can’t see any of my replies… just that prompt asking me to turn notifications on.
