Hi everyone, I just applied an update to the forum engine. Please report any new issues here.
@RichH and other iPad users please confirm that there are no new glitches. Thanks in advance!

There was a brief moment when a banner appeared stating that the site is in “read mode” that does not allow any modification of content, but it seems to be gone now.
The layout of the topic/replies/last post bar has changed (with Replies and Last being concatenated), but this does not affect function.

Hmm…
I thought I noticed a difference.
The home page looks a little different, but it’s not necessarily a bad thing. 
Yep, I would call it an improvement because they broke something in the layout of the previous upgrade 6 months ago. Now the post category and OP username are on the same line where they belong.
I may soon start testing a different mechanism for implementing the BLF theme tweaks, but I’ll try to make it as unnoticeable as possible.

What’s with the “Your browser no longer supports ----;; Update your browser” banner at the top of the page?

Hi there, what browser / device are you using?
Good eye! I was trying to locate that border in the CSS but I can’t figure out where it’s defined. It’s there in the expand arrow in quotes too.
It is not defined in the CSS, thus it uses the built-in browser style. You can add border: none to the btn-flat class to remove the border. But I don’t know if this class is used anywhere else.

Nice, thanks! This seems to work, slightly more specific to avoid affecting other flat buttons elsewhere:
.topic-body .btn-flat {
border: none;
}Same here. FF 115.27.0esr x64

It looks like Discourse will soon be dropping compatibility with some old browsers:
However they do support the latest Firefox ESR, currently v128.
Not possible to install on windows 7 x64.

Chrome on Android. Do I install Microsoft copilot?
I see. Unfortunately that’s a Discourse development decision that I can’t control (and also a Firefox decision, they’re ending support for ESR on Win 7 in September). In the previously mentioned thread this is what a dev suggests:
For users of Windows 7 and XP who are unable to update Chrome/Firefox, you may want to consider a third-party chromium fork such as Supermium or Thorium
And this is what I can find for Firefox builds / forks that may work on Win 7:
Thanks for the reply. Please try updating Chrome or installing a different browser such as:

Updated Chrome. Thanks, looks like that fixed it.

Excellent, thanks for confirming.

Interesting. I wonder what new browser features the Discourse folks decided they needed.
Firefox ESR 115 is one of the platforms I test with and support in my browser extension. It’s a little awkward sometimes and generates some warnings, but still works well enough for my purposes. It’s the oldest version I support though, because older versions lack the APIs required for some core functionality. And I can’t guarantee I’ll keep testing with it for long, because it’s getting harder to install old versions. Even Debian “oldoldstable” (from 4 years ago) doesn’t have it any more.
This is what the announcement mentions:
On the technical side, the features we’ll be requiring including relative color syntax, subgrid, lookbehind regex and import maps
