Same issue here.

When I clicked it the box turned yellow and the number inside was updated. I’ve never really understood that function but it appears to work for me.

but not others. The mods are working on it.

they said “we ain’t got a wrench big enough for that nut!”

Though

Or cell phone, or however you access DU?

I, oddly enough, do this on a desktop computer, and I just don't have the problems I'm seeing reported here.

For what it's worth, I do have a cell phone. I make voice phone calls and text messages, and that's it. All of my actual internet activity occurs on a computer. Not sure if that matters.

tried it using Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge and I cannot Recc.

Can't rec your post yet, but it's changed.. screen no longer jumps to top when I hit rec, it just remains still.

It is being fixed (Earl G posted it recently).

And the background is white. I am not sure what happened. Apparently Microsoft Edge was fed up with our frequent use of the Google app. Or whatever it is called.

Again, thank you for all your messages of comfort and suggestion.

Oh, well. Didn't really need that in my life anyway. I had an entertaining afternoon and early evening, killing time at ER. Fractured ribs, if you're curious. No reason you should be, really.

Just rest and do as little as possible. You have earned a good rest!
