Answered Mod Application Link Not Working
I'm on desktop, trying to share a mod application link for my sub r/askteddit. For some reason, the link appears to be telling users "You can’t apply to moderate this community right now." I've double-checked that I have the correct link, and tried closing and re-opening applications several times. It gives this error on my own account, and some of our users have shared that they get the same error too. Is there anything I'm doing wrong?
This is the link that I'm trying to use, copied directly from the mod tools interface.
EDIT: I just checked mod mail and it appears we got one application several hours ago, so perhaps the applications are working for some users and not others. I'm not sure what's happening.

This happens sometimes. Your link works fine for me on the web. It didn’t work on the Android app, but I can get to the application from your highlighted post on the sub.
You will get a message that you can’t apply cause you’re already a mod.
