Inline Links and Many Images Not Appearing
Now a new problem - when someone (or myself) posts a link or an image, I can't see it on the desktop version of FT, it's just invisible with an open white space where it should be, but I can see it on the mobile version

I also noticed this issue the other day when someone posted a Youtube video and it appeared to me as a blank post. When I quoted it I was then able to see the link and copy and paste it into a new tab to watch.

It's been like that for a while for me. My circumvention (I assume mine is an adblocker or something issue) is to quote the post in a reply, then I can see everything in the quoted post. I don't know if it is related to the changes that I seem to be experiencing now where I get messages saying "checking if your conection is secure" and then having to click on a Captcha image verification screen or two. Perhaps it's just my updated FF browser. Anyway, it doesn't affect me to any great degree as yet.

Ah, I'm not the only one that is constantly getting that?

Here is an example https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/35421881-post4853.html
I can see the link when I quote the post but not otherwise.

I still can't see links and I have disabled Lazy Loading. Using Safari (desktop) on an ipad.
