On two different browsers, Safari and Brave

I cannot see the DU home page. That is, I can see parts of it, but the main body with all the recent articles and links, it's just a blank white space.

Does anyone else have this problem? I can see it on Firefox and on Safari on my phone.

I see that you are not a star member so I suspect that it could be a placeholder for ads. You might want to purchase a star just to avoid the ads, there is no minimum amount. Click the My Account link at top.

Yeah for a while I was seeing this on one of my two Macs (the one I don't actually use with DU, I just happened to notice). It's working fine now, but fyi it was Safari on latest OS, but with Pihole-dns blocking ads.

I haven't had a problem ever. Just the rare failure to post. All kinds of browsers and operating systems.

I really suspect cloudflare messing with connections for reasons nobody is saying, like hackers who knows where, or some malware running on a computer in your vicinity, causing a block of addresses to be blocked ( pun unintended)

I did have a safari problem with my credit union's website but I didn't want to test different things. Banks take a dim view of repeated logins in a short period.

I do sometimes turn off/on "hide my address " in iCloud plus. Not sure if it affects anything. Time will tell.

Every day is different. Last night DU was working on FF. This morning DU site does not load on FF nor Edge. Nor Chrome. Works on Brave.

Lord only knows what will work tomorrow, if anything.
