Is DU4 "broken"?

Everything is displaying very strangely for me, I don't know how to describe it, but it looks really weird. I don't even know if this post is going to work, but we'll see.

TL/dr: Help!!! Wtf is going on?

It looked bizarre to me for several hours today. I was so relieved when it finally loaded normally again!

Everyone will get used to it in a few weeks, but I get it—it looks different.

It didn't look anything like the new OR old version of DU on my tablet for several hours today, but it seems fine now.

one of those options should work, EarlG has clearer instructions, I get that problem a lot, but usually restore it with some version of loading this link https://upload.democraticunderground.com/styles/style-main.css

and then reloading with some option (clik with shift option, etc whatever the windows equivalent is )

I tried reloading several times to no avail, but I didn't know the other tricks you just posted, so thanks for this.

In the meantime it seems to have sorted itself out...for now!

Of your post is obscured by the “Rec” feature. It happens to every post on my iPhone. Don’t know why.

Fine in one browser, completely exploded in the other.

Shift/reload worked like a charm.

Thanks 'Blues Heron'.

Fortunately, it seems to have gone back to normal without me doing anything.
