I was participating in a thread and somehow during the upgrade / maintenance window, something strange happened to the posts that were posted during a specific period of time.
See this thread (post number 857). Posts 841 - 855 are just gone. But I posted one of those and if I go to my user dashboard and click on "My Posts" and navigate to it, it loads a version of the thread that has those posts again (here's a direct link to one missing post). But every time I load it directly from subscribed threads they don't appear.
Cache consistency problem?

SIgned in / signed out. Incognito / not. Mobile / not. I just tried it on a brand new device and same thing!
Maybe... some sort of CDN at play here?

Sorry, content delivery network... i.e. edge caches that cache content near users (though dynamic content is less common). Just a wild theory that would explain a correlation between multiple devices / etc. on one ISPs or in a specific geographic region.
Or maybe there's something strange about all of my devices. *shrug*

This has become a massive mess in an awfully short time, clearly something that was not planned and executed as well as it needed to be. Oops, that was the SFO runway haha. Seriously though, Monday morning downtime likely wasnt ideal.

Not sure if my image uploader disappearance was caused by the update, but at least that is why I've never seen the outline before.

Firefox 69.0 on the Mac.
I was unable to respond to any posts or send any private messages -- the reply boxes were always greyed out. If I tried to quote, the text would briefly display before the box greying out. I went into my settings and changed from WYSIWYG display to simple text, and it seems to be working for now.

When I select "New Mentions" ,"New Post Quotes" ,.... I first see the top of the relevant report page and in a few seconds it bounces down to the bottom and I need to scroll back
(Might be related to the added display of the info on the far right side (friends, recent visitors, ...)
FF 69.0, W10, laptop, no helper apps
Does not happen in other browsers
