Removal of RES Account Switcher

With the recent issues of the account switcher no longer working due to Reddit changes. We have taken the decision to disable the account switcher from RES and migrate people who have it enabled to be turned off.

With the endpoint no longer working and no option for us, we do not want to set expectation that it should work.

We will be releasing 5.24.9 today with this and a few quality of life bug fixes.

The module can still be found here.

switching accounts / auto-login broken

What's up?

A day or two ago RES stopped being able to switch/login into reddit accounts. If I click and choose an account it gives me an error:

"Could not switch accounts.  Reddit may be under heavy load.  Please try again in a few moments."

The only way to switch or login is to click "sign up" and the choose "login" from reddit dialog box that pops up.
