Blue border on Android sporadically?
Every once in a while, I get a blue border (gradient) around FT on Chrome on an Android phone. Is this some sort of holiday theme?

It just happened to me. Second time. Randomly in the last 2 days. When I refresh the screen, it's gone.
Any ideas?

Very odd. I haven't seen anything on my own device. Could some please post a screenshot?

I'll try next time it happens. But it could be a while since it's so random and sporadic.
Thinking about it, both times it happened was upon opening a thread initially, and as I said it's gone when I refreshed the page.

Just happened on the Forum Trending Topics page.
Here's the screenshot

Weird, huh?

Oh yeah, that's our new lightsaber skin for the new Star Wars

No, but that is odd. I'll ask tech, thank you for the screenshot.

And thanks for following up. I'll keep a look out for any ideas.
It's only a curiosity, since I can refresh it away. Actually looks kind of cool, tbh.

One more data point. I got the border again on the same page and before refreshing, I tried to access the drop down menu. No go. The icon was inert. Worked fine after I refreshed the page.
Edit - happened again, different page. The border locks the entire FT page. Nothing functions until the page is refreshed.

Thank you. I have tech on this, but it sounds like this may be a secret ad.

Not just browser
I also see that gradient flash sometimes, exclusively when I am playing a full screen game.
