Description

I've noticed some interesting behavior:

  1. Open page with remark comments, for example https://radio-t.com/p/2020/01/14/prep-685/
  2. Login (GitHub in my example)
  3. Page didn't refreshed
  4. Try to vote for comment, that already has my vote
  5. Error on screen "Voting error: Can't vote for comment"

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the login flow and voting mechanism. Check the frontend code for page refresh logic after login (likely in JavaScript). Look at the backend voting endpoint to understand error handling. Consider if the issue is due to stale token or missing state update. Refer to the repository's documentation for architecture.
