I don't see anything different either.

@koahnig, @kshegunov
Bugger (as we say here...). My first reply this morning all was as it has always been. Now, I see the same page as I used to/you do initially. But once I pressReply
it no longer leaves me on that page as I type; instead, it completely replaces the whole page with a "Replying" page, you cannot see anything else, you would have to browser "Go back" to see what was there, losing this new reply page... :((I have just tried logging in from a different PC, and sure enough I do get the old interface. So I guess that must mean I have accidentally pressed some button here which has changed an "interface preference", but I have no idea what that might be.... Aaarrgghhh :(
P.S.
The original page, when I am just browsing, also shows something new related to this. It shows a "blue bar" at the bottom of the original page, showing which number post in the thread I have scrolled to. That is in the same 2style" as the new Reply page. What could I have done?? Help!! -

Hi,
The blue bar makes me think you might be getting the mobile version of the web site.

@SGaist
Ah ha!!! What has caused that, and how do I get out of it??!! -
@kshegunov I no longer get what you show in your screenshot, to be able to click that "down button"!
-
I don't know, maybe you activated the developer tools of your browser which is pre-set for mobile rendering ?
-
Then probably what @SGaist said. Try clearing the cookies for the site from your browser (a long shot).

Hmm, no, I did not. It was fine for my first reply earlier this morning, now it is not. I haven't done anything like that, nor installed updates, nor changed my Firefox, or....EDIT Yay! Told Firefox to clear the (just 2) cookies it has for
forum.qt.io
, and now I am back to old interface! I wonder what changed what cookie to make it mobile....EDIT2 Nightmare time :( That held for a few minutes. Now the new "mobile" interface has returned. I didn't do anything special. And this time I'm not having luck with clearing out all the cookies. WTF? :(:(
EDIT3 Now clearing the cookies is working again. It's possible I had not closed all Firefox windows previously. I'm going to monitor this for a while before deciding whether it's solved or not....
EDIT4 Well, seems to be behaving itself so far today! I'll re-mark this as the solution, and keep my fingers crossed... :)
