COVID-19 pandemic in Ontario
Hi there, I understand your frustration with not being able to see the statistics on COVID-19 pandemic in Ontario - but I can assure you they are working fine, and it must be a device issue on your end. In any case I hope you figure it out but I'm not going to bother replying to you anymore. CaffeinAddict (talk) 16:07, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
 * What kind of "device issue" could possibly so selectively affect one short section of one web page? Wikipedia pages are just static images and text, modulo the odd video or audio embed here and there. There's very little that *can* go wrong with their rendering. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.12.80.118 (talk • contribs) 00:58, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Not really - you can include LaTeX, maps, and graphs.  Silikonz  ( 💬 &#124;  🖋 ) 01:02, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Server-side fanciness. All the client sees is HTML with image embeds and maybe a light dusting of CSS on top. Nothing that should provoke device incompatibilities, let alone suddenly *start* doing so out of the blue one random January day. IOW, perhaps the last major website that's "the web as it should be", where links are just links, images are just images, text is just text, and there's no misuse of scripting shit to deliberately break things for people who try to block ads or whatnot, because there's no goddamn ads people might try to block. HTML as Berners-Lee intended, compatible with any browser with no need for any plugins. Should even work in Lynx, modulo images of course. There literally is no possible explanation for what I've observed other than a cack-handed edit that someone is too embarrassed to revert ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.12.80.118 (talk • contribs) 21:04, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
