Hi Team
Our infra team has set up a test site for a documentation forum, based
on the documentation mailing list. The documentation mailing list
history has been imported to it. Please have a look at
https://communitytest.documentfoundation.org/c/documentation/195
And let us know if you have comments and suggestions on the new forum.
My default browser is "Seamonkey" and using that browser I see nothing.
The link opens in a blank page.
I do not want to change my default browser, because I like the
integration of mail, browser and chatZilla client. So I would need a
notification about the forum posts per mail.
If I then want to answer or post myself, I could use Chrome. But I do
not want to make Chrome my default browser.
Latest SeaMonkey is based on Firefox 91.9, so relatively recent. I
looked into it and apparently there was a regression in Discourse:
https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-not-loading-on-legacy-browsers/221412
As TDF is running the latest release of Discourse, 2.8.3, it seems that
the fixes have not yet hit a stable version. However, Regina and other
SeaMonkey users could test how https://meta.discourse.org/ works. It
certainly works for me with SeaMonkey 2.53.12
It is not the intention of Discourse devs to cruelly block visitors
using non-bleeding-edge browsers. Quote from a dev in the topic:
"Keep in mind, our biggest focus is on not breaking old browsers. A
blank page is simply not acceptable, not even on ancient browsers. A
readonly view is acceptable.
The tricky thing that happened here is that we have some browsers that
are in a twilight state, not exactly supported and not exactly not
supported, sadly they got a white page treatment.
We are thinking of better approaches going forward to avoid regularly
hitting these issues as our minimal browser version number creeps up."
