I have tried a number of other things to fix this myself, including disabling my anti-virus temporarily, stopping the “firewall” built into my anti-virus. I have now added a specific permit into my pfsense firewall rules and that is looking a bit better. Although thinking about it the newblur web server will be responding to my port 443 requests on a high port so I’m not sure if it will turn out to have fixed the problem permenantly.
Nice to hear from you Mr Clay. Have really enjoyed using NewsBlur over a few years now. My “fix” turned out not to be. I’m convinced there is a misconfiguration of my network at home and I’ll drop a line back here when I work out what it is. My android devices seem fine.
I have apparently sorted this out. I cleared the browser cache and removed all cookies and that seems to have sorted it out. I didn’t do this to start with as I have the problem on both Brave (it’s a browser) and Chrome. I also have the same problem on my windows desktop machine.
I suppose this is something I should try earlier next time.
