Problems with viewing threads on ASR with Android?

[Everett T]

And out of nowhere the issue seems to be resolved on Android and Chrome for me. No updates, no flushing, and tonight it seems to be working fine. Will report back in the morning.

It was short lived, back to the same this morning.

What's going on? Formatting and URL/picture/smiley options in post textbox suddenly disabled. Everything greyed out.

I can't post a screenshot because that's... disabled.

I can post an image but not emojis. Seems kinda all over the place. I'm just gonna keep chugging along for know.

Attachments still work.

Are we getting hacked? Lol

It's getting worse. Now the quoting/reply mechanic is affected and displays in plain code instead of processed view:

@amirm Have you considered asking your host to turn the server off and on again? ＼⁠(⁠°⁠o⁠°⁠)⁠／

Huh. That fixed it all!

Nice, thanks.
Now I wonder whether I activated that (plain code
mode?) function by accident, or it did by itself? More mystery...

That has been my experience as well.

Still not working from my mobiles.... unless I use a private tab. Weird.
I tried everything, notably clearing all browsing data, checked various VPN settings (incl. VPN off), different DNS, etc.

I don't think any of that helps. And erasing caching may make it worse. Once the page is fetched, like the home page, caching helps it come up rather than hit the same bug. This may be the reason my issues started to become less and less.

Please report if you are still seeing the problem starting today.

 

[Chr1]

Seems fine with me now. As of earlier today.

Today has been good, no issues. Do you have an idea as to the issue?

I was having the issues this morning but it seems to okay now. I haven't been on the site much however.

 

[Ropeburn]

Problem seems to be gone right now, what did you do? Ask the host to turn the server off and on again?

Will report if it happens again. Hooray for now!

 

[KSTR]

Working for me now Thanks!

Haven't experienced any problems for a couple of days now.

Problem seems to be gone right now, what did you do?

Something someone suggested earlier: reboot the server! I looked deeper at the bug that was reported regrading Android and Chrome. At the end, it wasn't related to our issue even though the symptoms were the same. I searched and searched but didn't find anyone reporting what we are seeing. Since it was unique to us, I decided to reboot late last night.

I am unhappy that I could not find the specific bug but at least the problem is gone.

Didn't I suggest that very early? Come on my dude, you're an engineer, you should know it's the very first measure!

Haha! No seriously, glad the solution was so easy loool (the whole thing really is too funny in hindsight, I'm cackling)
