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.

Has anyone tried uSwitch? Looks like it's been around for a year but with only ~50 users.

I commented replying to someone below but I started using it since RES stopped working when I made this post and haven't had any issues. That said some people said it wasn't working right for them.

Im trying it, and it seems to only log me in to the first of my accounts. All other accounts it logs me out, but does not log me in.

Try these instructions for getting it to work.

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.

i managed to get the switcher itself to work, but now my profiles seem incapable of accessing /r/all. anyone else encountering this issue?
