Google photos doesn't work in latest build (Linux)

Post by snorkelface »

Seamonkey 2.53.7
Kutuntu 18.04 fully updated

Go to Google photos.
Upload photos.
Create new album.
Shows a blank screen with a circle that keeps going round. Never creates album.
Worked in earlier versions of Seamonkey.

Update: Tried Seamonkey 2.53.1 Did the same thing.

Uploaded and created a new album with Firefox. Everything works like it should. Opened photo album in Seamonkey and all thumbnails are blurry and can't click on one to make larger.

In console I see this:

Confirmed.
Fire 750, bring back 250.

Thanks for confirming this.
I tried Chromium, Firefox, Konqueror, Chrome and all worked. I can only assume that it has something to do with Seamonkey. Tried Seamonkey on 2 other computers with same results, all blurry.
I tried to install an earlier version that did work, but for some reason, it also showed blurry photos. So, is there some setting that even the earlier version of Seamonkey is picking up even though I unzipped it in a new directory?

Shows a calc error when I hover over an image. Might be https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1350857 which is basically not fixed in the Gecko style system. Needs Stylo or new code. Bot are not around the corner for 2.53.

Could someone please explain how I should reinstall an earlier version of Seamonkey? As I mentioned in my previous post, I downloaded an earlier version into a new directory, but when I stated it from the command line in that directory, it displayed the same symptoms.

I backed up my profile from my previous version. I don't know what I need to delete or backup beyond that. I don't understand why installing an earlier version didn't work. Was it using the new profile in ./mozilla/seamonkey?

Thanks very much for you knowledge and help.

Never mind. I just tried an older version of Seamonkey on another computer and it does the same thing, so it must be something Google did very recently. I guess I can't use Seamonkey on Goolge Photos anymore. Sadly, more and more websites become unusable with Seamonkey. I guess web developers have never heard of Seamonkey and don't know how to program for access by all web browsers.
