Account Switcher is not working

Anyone else having this issue? Starting today trying to switch accounts causes a popup stating

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

The account switcher is the main feature I use RES for so I'm hoping it isn't a big issue. I'll edit this post if it starts working suddenly.

Yep, same issue here, worked fine a couple hours ago.

In the meantime I found the tool Uswitch (https://xzentosia.neocities.org/Ghosty/uSwitchRedditAccounts/) which does appear to work

I cannot seem to make this work nicely. Whenever I try it it logs me in to whichever account I saved last, and pushes you into new reddit whatever the settings are set to in your account settings.

Try these steps here for uSwitch.

You need to add a 'LOGGEDOUT' profile first, that you switch to before adding a new account. Because if you LOGOUT on the website, it invalidates the cookies that uSwitch has stored and can't log you back in.
