Description

Reddit verification fails despite following the instructions and [the verification post](https://www.reddit.com/r/KeybaseProofs/comments/191mk9l/my_keybase_proof_redditlaserlemon/) existing. Via web, I get a "failed; retry?" message which isn't very informative. Via CLI, I get an error message telling me that the post can't be found.

Research direction

Start with the Reddit verification entry points in the web client and CLI, reproduce the failure using the linked verification post, and inspect log ID 046ca35cf3bd042f40630f1c. Done means the existing Reddit proof verifies successfully through both web and CLI with an informative result.
