Problems with our browsers (SM & FF) with bitbucket.org
« on: July 11, 2021, 12:36:41 pm »
Is bitbucket.org now unusable with our browsers too?

It worked when I tested some weeks/months ago. But this was on another OS/2 system. Now pages are left blank. I can log in and some direct links from my history work. But navigating to root projects or workspaces don't work anymore :-(

Just tested: https://bitbucket.org/ starts with normal layout.

Firefox ESR 45.9.0 (firefox-45.9.0.en-US.os2-Pentium-m-9.9.2-08112020 from Dave Yeo)


Reagrds,
Mike

Can you log in and navigate? Or take some direct link like https://bitbucket.org/Andi_B/os-2-wpa_supplicant/downloads/ and do you not only see the downloadable files but can navigate to the source code and commits?

I can see the pages and download the files, but I can't see the text on the left, with Firefox or Seamonkey.
But with simplebrowser it looks perfect.
Attached photo of firefox.

It's pretty broken now, even with a new profile. Not surprising as JavaScript gets updated and more sites depend on the Google crap and customElements. Too many sites also only target the last 2 releases of a limited set of browsers. Reading the SeaMonkey newsgroup, it's a problem with the latest releases on quite a few sites, even some like Youtube which still works fine here, as well go browsers such as PaleMoon Brave and other forks.
SeaMonkey's newsgroup is now at alt.com.software.seamonkey, Firefox and Thunderbird are nearby as Mozilla has dropped their newsgroups.

I just discovered that web.telegram.org is unusable too now. :-(. They also don't send SMS anymore to logon from a new browser. So without a smartphone and installed app it's not usable anymore. Even with a rather new browser on Win.

Github is no joy, either.

That was the reason why I choose bitbucket.org instead for my work years ago.

I chose Bitbucket as it supported Mercurial at the time and besides being a CPU hog, worked fairly well. Then they got bought out by Alsation and went downhill, eventually not only dropping Mercurial but also deleting all Mercurial repositories instead of setting them read only. Also at some point, uploading broke, even on other platforms with up to date browsers.
Now all these sites are implementing Google Web components and Custom Elements with no fallbacks,only supporting the latest 2 versions of a select number of browsers.
