Did Skinner mode just stop working for anyone else? It suddenly is in Default mode, not Skinner mode. UPDATE - fixed [View all] highplainsdem Nov 2023 OP

I am using Skinner mode (on my Kindle). It is working. tblue37 Nov 2023 #1

I'm on my Fire tablet now and do have Skinner mode here. But not on highplainsdem Nov 2023 #5

I'm using my desktop computer and Skinner mode is working fine. CaliforniaPeggy Nov 2023 #2

Thank you! I just checked to see if it somehow got turned off. DU suddenly looks very foreign to me. Rhiannon12866 Nov 2023 #3

Yeah, it was an instant switch. But on my tablet I still have Skinner mode, though highplainsdem Nov 2023 #6

I'm on my laptop - and all of a sudden everything started looking very different. Rhiannon12866 Nov 2023 #7

Mine is still working Glamrock Nov 2023 #4

About ten minutes ago... 2naSalit Nov 2023 #8

I finally restarted my laptop, but when I came back everything was still weird. Rhiannon12866 Nov 2023 #13

Same here. highplainsdem Nov 2023 #14

I'm back using my Chromebook - DU4 is too hard to use on my tablet - and even after rebooting, I still highplainsdem Nov 2023 #10

I experienced that using one browser, but not others. Eugene Nov 2023 #11

Well, I hope this goes away soon. DU4's Default mode lets me see almost nothing of the board compared to Skinner highplainsdem Nov 2023 #12

Yes, that's what it looks like to me now, too. I'm disoriented. Rhiannon12866 Nov 2023 #15

Me, too. highplainsdem Nov 2023 #16

It hurts my eyes now. That's what my friend who is also on DU said when we first switched. Rhiannon12866 Nov 2023 #18

DU4 definitely seems to cause more eyestrain than DU3. highplainsdem Nov 2023 #22

I've got all these big things highlighted and blinking at me, it wasn't that way in Skinner Mode earlier Rhiannon12866 Nov 2023 #23

My understanding is that night mode doesn't work on DU3. sheshe2 Nov 2023 #17

What the problem is, which is affecting me as well, is that Skinner Mode suddenly went away. Rhiannon12866 Nov 2023 #19

Got it, thanks. sheshe2 Nov 2023 #20

Do you mean Skinner mode, sheshe? Since it looks a bit like DU3, but isn't. You're right that there is no highplainsdem Nov 2023 #21

I just tried to switch to take a look see. sheshe2 Nov 2023 #24

Sheshe, I'm guessing you're using large fonts, and with that setting you can't use Skinner mode. highplainsdem Nov 2023 #27

Yep, I was. sheshe2 Nov 2023 #29

I'm still seeing Default mode on my Chromebook this morning. :( Haven't checked the tablet yet, but highplainsdem Nov 2023 #31

Maybe check to make sure you didn't get signed out? n/t jxla Nov 2023 #25

That was actually my first thought when I saw Skinner mode had changed to Default. But I'm not signed out, and highplainsdem Nov 2023 #26

My friend who had the same problem said he signed out then signed back in and that worked, but it didn't work for me Rhiannon12866 Nov 2023 #30

Try clearing recent cookies/cache/history in your browser. I just did after seeing the reply from Eugene here highplainsdem Nov 2023 #32

Working for me mahina Nov 2023 #28

This is almost certainly related to the other issues we've had with CSS files not loading EarlG Nov 2023 #33

Thanks! I was just going to edit my OP with an update about clearing RECENT cache/history, back to highplainsdem Nov 2023 #34

I added a pinned thread with the workaround (nt) EarlG Nov 2023 #35

Thanks! Just recced that and posted a reply mentioning it might be necessary to delete only recent history, cookies, highplainsdem Nov 2023 #36
