Commit messages not visible on Github

Unread post by Mario Blunk » 2020-12-12, 20:05

Hello,
thanks for Pale Moon. Great work.
One issue: If I visit github, I can't see any commit messages but just a grey field where the message usually is. See the attached screenshot.

I'm running the Pale Moon version as provided here:
http://linux.palemoon.org/datastore/rel ... _64.tar.xz

My OS is OpenSuse Tumbleweed.

Thanks for your help !

Unfortunately GitHub has chosen to unconditionally start using Google WebComponents. Please see other recent threads on the forum for more information about it as well as workarounds in the form of a polyfill extension and userscript that restores most of the functionality.
