I am using Chrome 87 on macOS 10.15.7 and I'm not seeing any scroll bars at all on your site, even though I have my Mac preferences set to always show scroll bars.

This is a UI bug due to formatting meant for mobile devices . The scrollbars are tiny in these instances. This isn't by design on desktop and is getting fixed as we speak.

Yeah, it seems like a firefox-specific issue. Replicated on windows here.
Works absolutely fine on Edge though.

They're so focused on privacy, they only tested it on a browser that spews 'telemetry.'

We've tested on a number of browsers but not often enough on some of them - like Firefox. We don't like all the data Chrome collects on it's users, but it makes up for the vast majority of usage on desktop and Android so it's important to test it most thoroughly on the most thoroughly used browser. We did the same on Safari which is a bit more private than Chrome, but not totally. We need to test more, perhaps something like browserstack needs to make it's way back into my toolchain.

It looks just fine on my Firefox instance on Android 11.

Hi. Found a couple bugs in the web app (also using Firefox). I can upvote my own post in the feed (which may or may not be a bug), but then if I open that post and it slides open from the right, it doesn't show the upvote there unless I refresh the page. Also I can upvote my own post in the feed a second time, Refreshing removes the upvote, so that's just a UI bug.
Lots of extra scrollbars. Latest Firefox on macOS 11.
