## Raised on Codidact Meta Thanks for raising this. It turns out this affects other Codidact Communities, so it's not specific to Software Development Codidact. There's a post on the main Meta community: [Incorrect raw JSON failure message on posting a comment](https://meta.codidact.com/posts/293281). I've mentioned your report there to highlight that it is affecting more people. ## Workaround Although the error message suggests failure, the comment does save successfully. This is misleading and needs to be fixed, but in the meantime you will still be able to add comments. You just won't be able to see that they succeeded until you revisit the page (by pressing back and then refresh, or by visiting the post in a different tab). If you follow the link in your Meta question, you will see that the answer has 3 comment threads from you (presumably due to you understandably retrying when you were told that your attempt to add a comment had failed). If you open one of those threads and click on "View the whole thread", you'll have the option to delete the comment, which will then automatically delete the empty thread, allowing you to remove any duplicate comment threads that you don't want.
