I appear to have temporarily lost the ability to react with anything other than "like" when on mobile.

It acts as a right click when tap and hold is applied.

NewsBlur, an RSS and news feed aggregator, is having issues retrieving this site's front page news RSS feed located at https://www.techpowerup.com/rss/news. Samuel Clay, admin and chief developer of NewsBlur, says that this site is rejecting requests from NewsBlur's feed retrieval servers because apparently, it's being detected as a bot of some kind (which is technically true).

He's provided a list of IP addresses that belong to NewsBlur's feed retrieval servers to be whitelisted by this site. The list is located here.

Added pingback for @W1zzard regarding my issue I posted above.

Thanks for the heads up. This should be fixed now. /rss/* has been excluded from the bot detection

Everybody else who reads this and has similar issues: just email me, w1zzard@techpowerup.com

In forum threads with polls, page navigation buttons at the top are not shown when the window is too narrow. The buttons at the bottom are always there. On my Android phone with a 720 x 1080 resolution, I don't see those buttons either.

Narrow vs. a bit wider:

Looks like that's how the XenForo people designed it

Download server #4 USA was pinned in the high 90+ now down to zero.
Is there an issue with that one?

Seems fine, thanks for reporting

The source links for @Nomad76 articles aren't hyperlinked. The other news posts links work fine. Is this intentional?

When only a text without URL is provided, only text is displayed. On the newest post it's clickable just fine

What the useless duffel bags is this new hell?

I was trying to hold to get a sad emoji on a post, all I get is this...

Edit - well that disappeared fast. Working as it should now. :kookoo:

I just liked/unliked/liked again your post without any confirmations. Maybe with your great power comes great responsibilities.

I'd like to think you're joking, but based on my experience here I'm pretty sure you're not.

It seems to happen occasionally. For me it was on mobile.

Just out of curiosity - how many times to have have to tell the forum software that NO, I DON'T WANT PUSH NOTIFICATIONS.

I have clicked on the never ask again dozens of times, yet the software doesn't seem to get the message.

Same here. Reported before.

I figure it has to be a browser side cookies issue or something. I've grown numb to it at this point

This happens when you have JS disabled or open the like link in a new window

yeah, it's a known issue, hopefully the next xenforo release addresses it or i'll just write a plugin for it to improve the experience. remind me after the forum upgrade (no eta, probably this year, depends on when they release new xf)

I did neither of those. Perhaps JS was glitching? Pages were loading slower than normal, although this was really only on TPU. It's fine now.

JS loads after you see the content, so depending on network/device speed, there's a small window when you click a link that its JS handler isnt registered yet and a click will execute the fallback that you saw.
