Device limit reached

Your account signs its reactions with a key, and it takes a new one for each browser profile you sign in on. There is a limit on how many it may hold in a month, and this message means you reached it.

While the limit holds

Nothing is lost and nothing is suspended. Your account, your reactions and your history are untouched; only new keys are refused.

  1. React from a browser profile you already signed in on. Its key is issued, so it keeps voting normally.
  2. Wait for the date the popup shows. Keys are counted per month, and the count starts again on that day.
  3. If neither fits - a shared machine, a profile you cannot get back to, a number you did not expect - get in touch and say which provider you sign in with. The operator can see the count and raise it for your account.

Where the 2 messages come from

On the sign-in page. Signing in on a new browser profile makes a key for it. Once the month's keys are spent the sign-in is refused and the page says so, which is why an account that works everywhere else can fail on a machine you just picked up.

In the popup, on the Account tab. A profile that is signed in still needs a fresh key each month. If the count is already full when that month turns over, reactions are refused until it starts again, and the note carries the date.

Why there is a limit at all

Emojery counts 1 reaction per account per item, and the key your browser signs with is what ties a reaction to an account. An account that could keep making new keys would be able to sign as many reactions as it liked on 1 item while the log still read as 1 account.

The limit is per month rather than forever, so an ordinary reader who changes machines, reinstalls the browser or clears a profile runs no risk of running out permanently. It leaves room for all of that, which is why reaching it is unusual enough to be worth a message rather than a silent refusal.

What the operator sees

The count against your account, the provider you sign in with and the month it belongs to. Not the profiles, not the machines, not what you reacted to.
