*smacks LJ with a dead fish*

[sholio]

Okay, seriously, LJ, WHAT. Spoiler-span code seems to have stopped working. I've tried it in two different browsers and in two different journals, and I'm pretty sure it's not me.

On top of that, people have already complained about what has been done to comment display in LJ's "light" style (and apparently for some people in the default style as well; it doesn't do it for me, but it does for some, possibly depending on your prefs) -- the gray separator bars have become much shorter, so that the icons overlap the line below. It's not only fugly, but makes the comments harder to read.

And on top of THAT, I noticed the last couple of days that the "expand" button in threaded comments doesn't reliably work anymore. Sometimes it does. Sometimes it just makes the whole comment thread disappear and the only way to get it back is by reloading the page. (The first time it happened, I thought I'd done something wrong. But it just kept happening.)

Is this happening to anyone else, or is it just me?

I have everything in style=mine, but my style is the site scheme, not a custom style. (I don't like custom style pages.) I might try switching to a different scheme. I still use one of the old ones, so maybe it's that they're trying to force people to newer site schemes...

I use the default style too ... and yet I'm not getting the narrow bars, which is weird. ratcreature suggested that it might depend on whether you use the newer or older styles, because I do use one of the newer styles and she's having the narrow-bar thing happen on style=mine in one of the old styles.

I'm not sure if it's a deliberate thing so much as just increasingly not bothering to support older styles and older and/or non-mainstream browsers. Which I find very annoying in general, but I can't really hate LJ for doing something that most of the sites I visit have been doing (or, well, it's more accurate to say that I just hate all of them equally *g*). It's very irritating to have something work and work and then suddenly break, though.

Just switched to Horizon from XColibur and that fixed the blue bars! Well, I prefer XColibur (especially the fact that the LJ banner at the top stayed plain blue and didn't change to these fancy seasonal ones), but that was utterly unworkable, so I will just have to get used to Horizon.

Ah, yeah, I can't ever remember the names of things, but Horizon is the one I use, I think. (Dammit, LJ, stop "fixing" things already!)
