Black areas on mobile

[AGHHHH]

Anyone else get this? If I'm browsing the site on my phone if I've come back to my browser from using another app the thread will be all fuzzy and have random black blocks all through it before I refresh.

Simple fix but still annoying. :s

This is getting REALLY old now.

Hi All,

Thank you, so much for sending the URL's- this really helps.

We are looking into the issue, please do bare with us and we will update you as soon as possible.

It's driving me mad too - happens on all threads I look at - if I reload the page, it goes but may come back again even on that page, and definitely the following page.
Mine is chrome and android too -

chrome 69.0.3497.100

operating system: android 7.0.0 EVA-L09 Build/Huawei

If i turn my phone to airplane mode, then the black box vanishes and all goes back to normal - then happens again as soon as I take it off to go on to the next page.

Once again, a huge thank you for helping us to investigate. And apologies for the frustration of using a broken site.
Apparently, this has happened on other sites and we're in touch with Google to try to get a solution.
We'll update you as soon as we know more.
Thanks again.
M.

I have adblock as suggested upthread. It makes no difference. I still have the problem.

What other site's is it happening on as only MN is affected for me

I'm also getting this problem. Samsung edge.

@fishesthatfly it has been happening on diply. Com as well

Literally every thread this morning. It's unusable. I'm.going back to sleep :humph:

www.marksandspencer.com/l/women/coats-and-jackets?extid=PD_P_IM_B_WW_320x50_ROS

Yup - is worse this morning. Are you really unable to replicate this Mn? S7 on Chrome so pretty standard stuff

It's a conspiracy to force us onto the app, that's why it isn't being fixed eh, mumsnet?

Chrome 69.0.3497.100
Android 8.0.0

Just FYI, although I'm getting the black boxes occasionally this morning, after clearing my cache (as suggested yesterday) it was better for the rest of the day.

It bloody infuriating.

And the words then move from different posts and blend to others.

Maybe this is what I need to stop the MN addiction. Absolutely hating it at the moment.

Clearing the cache has sorted it - for now!

Considerably worse this morning. The site is unusable because of breaks and black boxes on threads.

It started in the last few weeks for me, getting worse and now almost unusable - only Mumsnet.

Chrome: 67.0.3396.81
Android: 7.0.0

Now I'm not able to post on threads properly. I start typing then the letters start not appearing (but are still there, the cursor moves) then they end up overlaid multiple times. Is it better using the app? I don't use it because it's crap but I do have it, so could try that I suppose. Screenshot of invisible text attached. You can see the blue cursor where the text actually finishes. And the black square at the top where an ad should be. If I do the airplane mode thing it all loads correctly so can't do the link paste thing.

Another update.
Apologies again - we're still working out what's going wrong and how to fix it. We're in touch with Google and one of their specialist teams is investigating. They've said it will probably be tomorrow - but we'll keep you updated.

And another thank you for posting screenshots of the operating system and browser versions. And for the long click string links - it all helps.

I've been getting this over the last week too. I can scroll down a thread and there are black blocks and repeated bits overlapping each other but if I scroll back to the top they disappear when I scroll back down again.

I'm on an android sony phone.

Still no news in what is going on, very very annoying, still happening !!!
