I noticed that too. It looks the entire front page is winning articles and hundreds of tags.
-edit- I just refreshed it and it is much better behaved now.

I have refreshed several times, but always landing in Web04... where the problem persists.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Web01 and Web02 looks the same for me.

Both issues fixed

Some of them are just pure clickbait:
 Nothing about the "story" at the other end, even if you do go through the tracking system of "adclick.g.doubleclick dot net" which uBlock rejects automatically.

They're one of the reasons uBlock is set to "kill" for all new sites!

I use my hosts file to block sites.
I get my hosts file from here: Blocking Unwanted Connections with a Hosts File[^]
If an ad sneaks through, I modify my hosts file to include the url, notify the people at this site. On their next update, their hosts file usually includes what I sent them. They update frequently.

I was on this thread, Cos x + cos y = 1, cos 3x + cos 3y = 0. Find value of x and y!, and I was flagging it as off-topic since it was primarily a homework.
The response returned "Success". Great. But it wrote success on every post and comment as well. When we highlight the solutions, or the replies and comments. They all contain "Success". And I did not vote for them, only the question.
Needs to be checked.

I did a search for my messages (dated oldest to newest), and none of the old links that I clicked on took me to the selected message. Instead it took m to the latest lounge post made by whoever made it.
How can I relive my glory days when I can't see the messages? HOW!? BOB, THOU HAST FORSAKEN ME!!! I AM NOT AN ANIMAL!!!!

Can you please send me a link that failed to work?
We need to look up the message by message ID to get the location of that message, and from there we get the forum. Everything's cached so there shouldn't be any issues. Database loads (the way we did it a few years ago) have a limiter that stops you going back too far in order to limit the pain on the server.

There were several that I tried, and when I tried newer ones, the newer ones worked as expected.
I'm probably hitting the limiter. The messages I was trying to load were from 2001. However, if they're in the list, I should be able to see them when I click on them, correct?
In any case, here's a link to a message from 2000.

There shouldn't be any limit. A message from 2001 is something dark and dusty. If you have the ID I'll put on my Stetson, grab a torch and enter the archives.

Lately I have noticed some questions tagged as "C++14", or variants of that, appear on the main page when the "All" option is selected but when I click on "C++" those questions no longer appear. I think they should appear in the C++ category also. I noticed another one just now that I answered.

Done. The change will take a bit to propagate.

Trying to vote for this answer[^] reloads the page, and displays a validation error for the "new solution" box. The vote is not recorded.
There's also a problem with the display of the rating control, and the dreaded "f.tabs is not a function" error:

Yes, all working now. Thanks.

I'm really getting tired of being downvoted on my Q/A answers because the OP CHANGED HIS QUESTION after I posted my answer, rendering my answer in some way invalid.
Is there any convenient way to resolve this? I'm sick right now, so my mind ain't workin' at full capacity, otherwise, I'd offer at least one way this could be addressed.

You have been voted "smaller 5" in about 5 answers from total about 100 in this year. Where is the Problem?
Btw: Of course, I can understand the Frustration to get negative points while trying to help.
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

I'm not complaining about the points. I'm complaining about being downvoted *after* the OP changes the question, with that change rendering my solution invalid.

I think to understand you. The question is, was it really OP? I hope not!
Whenever I asked a question and somebody tried to help me I never voted below a 3, except it was obviously a spammy answer.
