Reddit no longer loads after update other than in Icognito mode

Post by chelonian »

Today I updated Slimjet to version 37.0.3.0 and immediately after that I found I could not load Reddit. It just gives the Reddit logo in the tab and there is a spinner around it, but the page stays white.

If I put the browser into Incognito, then it loads.

I have tried it with all my Chrome extensions on and all of them off and in both cases, Reddit will not load.

On this same computer, Reddit does load using Firefox. It also works using Chrome itself, Version 108.0.5359.99 (Official Build) (64-bit).

Just checked. Seems to work for me.
More about you set up (see my sig for example).

Still doesn't work. My system is:

Windows 7 on a 64-bit system
Slimjet: Version 37.0.3.0 (based on Chromium 107.0.5304.62) (Official Build) (32-bit)

Yes, I see the mismatch between my 64-bit system and this Slimjet, but could that be the problem? If so, where can I get the 64-bit version? I just updated based on the built-in updater when it prompted me today.

I do not want to write over any of my bookmarks, history, installed extensions, settings, etc.!

the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit will not be a problem for loading reditt

Mostly my replies are about Windows OS. If not I try to remember to specify Linux.

How about the adblocker? Have you messed with turning that off for the website or domain to see if it may be an issue?

Yes, toggling the ad blocker (if it is off turn it on; if it is on turn it off--either on site or domain) does then allow the Reddit page to load, but there are problems:
  • No matter what I do, the spinner in the tab keeps spinning forever, even after the page is loaded
  • If you then go to a new page, you have to do it again for each new page (yes, even if you toggled it for the whole domain
  • If you go back to the page you already just "fixed" this for, you have to do it again. Every time.

Hi,

i have got the same with site ceneo.pl.

When i go to the site for the first time is ok.

When i close Slimjet and start again, the page is not loaded.

On the Firefox and Edge i haven't got this problem.

The solution to the problem for me is clear cookie from this site, but it works for first open the page.

I don't have any cookies from Reddit, so that is not an option for me.

Can confirm, I have broken icons and reddit links on Windows 7x64.This just started today. Rolled back to 37.0.1 and its still broken. Help please.
