#31152 new defect Cannot make comments on Disqus
I was able to comment on Disqus using Tor until 2 days ago. My tor would not connect, so I upgraded to the alpha Tor, which connected, but could not comment. I tried going back, but my previous TorBrowser 8.5 could no longer comment. I was told to delete the TorBrower and download a new copy (which I did) but lots was left over. The last comment was if I could not delete the old version, start a new ticket.
On the Macintosh, a lot is stored in the user's Library. Under Application Support is a TorBrowser file with lots in it. A new copy of Tor has all the old bookmarks and preferences. New copies could not comment on Disqus, because the login tab could not communicate with the comment tab, so one could log in once (takes a long time because of the Captcha that does not like Tor, but one can eventually get through), then the log in tab closes and you're back at the comment tab that thinks you are not logged in. Clicking login again causes the screen to flicker as it checks the login page and finds you're logged in, but you're back at the comment page unable to comment.
I went back from TorBrowser 8.5 to 7.5, and I can comment. I then tried TorBrower 8.0 with all that was left in the Library, and could not comment, but I did get some interesting error messages (attached)
