Why? I'm using Firefox browser on a Win11 Desktop. Do I need to remove the Reddit cookie from Firefox?
Why is Reddit doing this to me: Rate limit exceeded???

This is the universe letting you know you spend to much time on reddit and that you should step back and away

That message means Reddit thinks you're sending too many web requests too fast to their servers, so they're slowing you down a bit with a short timeout. Deleting cookies won't help with that.
Do you maybe have any addons in Firefox, or userscripts, which might be accessing Reddit's API? Maybe they're broken and just spamming. Because I don't see how normal browser usage could trigger this. Unless Shreddit is really THAT badly designed. It's a shame I can't recommend Old Reddit anymore, now that they killed access to it for anyone not already using it.

I have the account for more than 2 years with 218 karma if that matters. I usually am able to post comment replies successively but not anymore. I deleted my other account with lots of karmas because of this issue on replies/comments/posts.

I think the most likely causes that spamming is associated with your IP or another IP that is on the same network. The cleanest way to avoid Reddit IP based limits is to use a cell phone data connection
