Error retrieving comments over HTTP instead of HTTPS

I experienced similar issues. Was it error fetching data?

Seems to be a simple fix

Weird, it should request everything over HTTPS by default.. wondering if maybe reddit was temporarily downgrading requests to HTTP. Can't reproduce right now anyways.

I get the same issue when I want to load some Posts.

Can you please provide me with some console logs and network requests? Also what commands were you typing? I can't seem to replicate this myself so I'm having trouble figuring out what the problem is.

My only theory is that the "view comments" command is requesting "https://reddit.com/r/subreddit/comments/4dthkd/etc..." instead of "https://www.reddit.com/r/subreddit/comments/4dthkd/etc..." (missing the www) which seems to result in a 301 Moved Permanently response in certain cases and then forwards to "https://www.reddit.com/r/subreddit/comments/4dthkd/etc...". Not sure why the request would be downgraded after the 301 response, but it's possible I guess.

I addressed this issue in my latest commit - hopefully this helps 4323c5e
