method not allowed when subscribing to a newsletter
paraphrasing a bug report received by email from @smith
when I click on the confirmation address in your email to me, appears: "Method not allowed" and "Must be one of: OPTIONS"
to reproduce:
- head to the newsletter page
- fill your email address and the captch, hit "join"
- you'll receive an email with a link looking like: https://donate-api.torproject.org/subscription-confirm?token=REDACTED
- then you'll get "Method not allowed", if you reproduce the bug
In my case, however, I get a "Subscription Confirmed", so I'm not sure what is going on here.
In any case, we're seeing a drastic reductions in the number of new subscribers since at least december 2020, but maybe as far back as november or october 2020.
