I wonder if they blocked saidit from accessing their video media server or something?

Very possible. Or they just see an ip that's not theirs requesting data so they blocked it. I guess this is technically hotlinking, and it does Reddit no good to let people view their videos on other sites.

Yeah that makes sense. They seemed to have worked very hard to disallow direct linking to the videos, I've never been able to figure out how to do it, it always just links back to the comment section associated with the post

    Good analysis. Link still works for me right now, maybe it needs 100+ hotlinked views to have that IP get blocked for that file or something
