More Updates to Blurt.Blog | Dev Update 2021-07-10

Thank you for everything you are doing.

Are there any plans to make Blurt friendly for Safari again? It refuses to display comments or replies, or follow lists for quite some time now. I really miss the replies option, as I enjoy reading my replies the most.

I wasn't aware that there was a problem with Safari. I've been using Brave and Firefox almost exclusively for quite some time.

I'll look into it. There could be some quirk with Safari that needs something added in the code to make it happy.

Thanks for letting me know!

Wanted to give you an update. I cleared all of my cookies to see if maybe you had made progress on safari and now it refuses to even load the site, saying it can't make a secure connection.

I can't replicate the issue on my end.

Which version of Safari are you using and which operating system?

Right now, I'm logged in with Safari 14.1.1 on Mac OS Catalina (10.15.7), and it all works correctly.

I've replied to a few comments (including this one) with Safari and I haven't run into any issues.

I'm using Safari 14.0.1 on my phone. I just commented this to Jacob.

Whatever occurred was during the last hard fork. It changed to where you could only see your posts, but nothing else. No one elses posts, their comments to you, your follow list etc. I tried clearing my cookies the other day and now the site wont even load in my safari browser. It says it can't establish a secure connection and refuses to load it. Ironically, Blurt World will load for me, but like the other it only will display my own posts and nothing else.

I'm wondering if it has to do with it being through a phone now instead of a computer. Everything displayed correctly for me though until the last fork.

I’m posting this reply from Safari on my iPhone 6.

Everything seems to work as it should for me.

I wonder what’s different on your end. What is the model of your mobile phone?

I wonder if it’s your mobile carrier. Does this happen regardless of if you’re using wifi or cellular data?

It all started at the last fork. I get alternating messages that say either the connection wont be secure to the latest one saying the site is timing out. Here is a link to the "connection not secure" snapshot.

Here is one for Blurtworld where it only allows you to see your own posts, no comments replies or follow lists for anyone including oneself. This was what I was also getting for Blurt blog before I deleted my cookies and now it says not secure and refuses to even load.

I'm using the Iphone SE that was released last year, so its a fairly newer model.

I'm only using the cellular data as I don't have the patience to put in the long string passwords due to the small size of the buttons coupled with my not so great old eyes.

It's not a deal killer but I do miss being able to see if someone responds and look for others posts while not on my computer.

You could try using the full URL to force it to connect securely (https://blurt.blog).

Blurtworld.com is owned and operated by @yehey. It’s not an official site and I have no control over it. I only have access to make changes on blurt.blog.

Yes, I tried using just the URL typed out to no avail.

I shared the Blurt World pic because the issues it is showing were also impacting Blurt blog before I cleared my cookies and it refuses now ot even load the site.

Thank you for your prompt replies.

@practicalthought I used it everyday, but I will try to replicate your issue.

I remember it now. I switched it back to my old copy, without the notification update.

Will play on it.
