Hello. I’m still unable to download videos from Reddit. Is there something I’m doing wrong?

If you end up changing stuff then please support links like these as well:

https://reddit.com/comments/1fx0f4y
https://redd.it/1fx0f4y

Normal expanded link:
https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimalsBeingBros/comments/1fx0f4y/waiting_to_pounce_on_our_bedtime_walk_he_doesnt/

These two at least have the same identifier (1fx0f4y) so it might be easier to fix?

@jslberto if you click the link you posted above you or just open it in a web browser then you get the full link:
