Impossible to reply to some thread even not marked locked

It worked for me. I got the Reply section and I was able to reply.

It might be worth retrying in a private browsing window to see if there’s something wonky cached.

Does not work for me. Unlike this post, the linked one does not have the Your Reply textbox below. Also pushing the Add a comment link does nothing.

I tested on a lot of browsers and different Mac, none worked. On iPad, I got the reply section, but ended with unauthorized access…

I think I found a hint to the issue. It seems that I can't reply on any thread with the WWDC20 tag. Maybe threads with this tag are "locked" for non Apple-person accounts, since WWDC20 ended...

It seems that I can't reply on any thread with the WWDC20 tag.

But the thread that Claude31 referenced doesn’t have that tag.

Perhaps the thread allows only Apple-employee accounts to comment

That’s not it. I was able to reply to the thread from a test account (justkwin) that’s not associated with Apple in any way.

I’ve got no explanation as to why folks aren’t able to reply on that thread. I’d appreciate one of you filing a bug about that and posting the bug number here.

For me, it works now. I successfully replied to the thread.

Yes, it works. I will close the FB ! And this thread as well (still hoping to have some insight on the root cause…).
