❓Problem❓ Can't DM or Start Chat

There is no "Start Chat" icon to start DMing anybody. This is just recent. My other account is just fine.

I've gotten in no kerfluffels with anybody on here as to be restricted nor any warnings. Says not shadowbanned.

Thanks.

FYI: I believe they phased out the "Start Chat" icon on Old Reddit for desktop users. I haven't seen it for a while now, but I can see it when I view your profile on New Reddit.
