Is anyone else having problems with cards in Google Now not loading? I'm getting a message saying cards could not be displayed due to low storage space. However I have all sorts of space still available...?
 
I believe it is bugging out lately -- Mine today started saying it couldn't refresh it. I am on the 7.1.2 beta on my Pixel XL but it was fine before today.
 
I'm noticing the same issue on my 5x after installing the February update but use other ways to open the now cards
when swipe right opens a blank page displaying the won't load message.
I'm on 7.1.1 using The Pixel Launcher as default launcher.
 
Still seeing it on mine...

Delete your card preferences... Settings-your feed-delete card preferences

I was fighting this for a bit, cleared that and it's been functional ever since. I'm guessing there was an update that introduced an incompatibility with an older setting.. clear the old setting, clear the problem.
 
I had the exact same problem. To be fair, my phone storage was a bit tight. I cleared the cache, moved some apps to the SD card and uninstalled some apps until I had more free space than I'd had in months, but the problem didn't go away.

Then I tried going into settings in the Google app and went into the "Your feed" section and turned the feed off. I didn't delete my feed preferences. Then I restarted my phone. As soon as the phone restarted I had a screen come up automatically which suggested that I opt into restarting my feed. I clicked on "Yes I'm in" and the problem was solved. My feed was restored with my preferences intact.

My theory is that once the cards stop working due to low storage space, the app doesn't do a good job of reassessing the storage situation without this reboot. I hope it works for others. It is certainly a lot less drastic than deleting your card preferences and/or doing a system reset.
