I am probably very much the ONLY one to be impacted by this...but it seems we converted the back end to show SVG icons/images/page framework(s) and seeing as I'm using a fairly old OS, well, that's completely made the site unusable.

...yup, as in: I can't even REPLY/POST, which is a do or die thing, while I could overlook the missing notification icons otherwise.

Yikes man...
 
The English version please. What OS Flinstone1960?

I lost all the reaction icons, so I can't even give anyone a thumbs up. Idk what they messed with on the back end.

LOL...well, not quite that bad!

So this is more of a web browser issue actually, not OS, but for the record I am running IBM's OS/2 4.52 SMP (which basically means it is the last release which ended support ohhh, some 10-15 yrs. ago I think???).

The browser in question is Firefox 45.9.2, which indeed is a galaxy away from today's "latest & greatest".

Keep in mind that the benefit to me has been "security through obscurity", and it does help that I'm an IT guy by profession, so my setup has a boat-load of tweaks made to it over the years.

Anyways...not sure what everyone else is using, but judging the the feedback so far this may not be an isolated impact as I thought!
 
Good Lord, what browser are you using that can't render SVG graphics? If it's that old you need to be wearing condom when browsing the web.

I'm sure the place holders are still there. If you hover the cursor over where they should be the alt-tag should still pop up.
 
Reminds me of 'The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!'.
At least in the German synchronize said
I do safer sex (while wearing a full body condom...)

Is the hardware 64-bit?
I'm using Slackware 15 with latest Firefox 140.2.0esr, everything seems fine with this setup. This combination will run on most 64-bit machines. It comes with Linux kernel 5.15.x. My machine is more modern and I can use latest kernel version.
