@M-- If you have concerns about a specific user, you can always send in a ticket to community support. Just detail out your specific concerns, especially about why the user's PII access is a concern. Input about mods, mod permissions, and elections is always welcome and my team does discuss concerns that are raised.

For the moment... let's remember that the election dates and timing are all things that have come into place in the last month, people have vacations planned much longer in advance, and real life stuff happens too. It's only been 4 days since "last seen" and 2 days since the election ended. I def understand the concern (especially around lack of any communication).

@MurtuzaZabuawala Noted, and I am checking with my colleagues to see if we have any precedent to refer to (e.g. "if the election winner has not replied in X days..."). I will update you here today if I have an update. I am out of the office next week so one of my colleagues will step in next week if needed.

For these reasons, we'd usually look site mods -- familiar with the topic, norms of the community, and the members of the community -- to determine whether something might rise to the level of a CoC violation. To be clear, I am not looking to evaluate that specific instance, so please don't provide more details :) And I recognize that there's the x-factor of this being about a nominee in a mod election. It's a tough situation.

@cocomac My thoughts are that there's some subjective logic there to equate "validating a bad answer during review" with a CoC violation. Which doesn't mean it's incorrect, but (like most things) it really depends on the situation, and the details. How bad was the answer, or how likely was it that it was spam? What was the perceived (and actual) intent of the reviewer? Is it a pattern or was it a one-off thing?

Results are posted

Technical issues are preventing me from wrapping things up at the moment. Please stand by.

@FranckDernoncourt Yes, it was from Dec 17.

@FranckDernoncourt I can confirm that there is an Answer Bot answer on that question, visible only to the site's mods. I see on your question that Jeremy did some digging and more or less confirmed that as well, but wanted to follow up here.

Well said!

@Willeke We require that elections be competitive, so technically the election is "canceled" if there is no other nominee at the end of the extension week

@Willeke Yes, the current nomination phase will be extended

Hello! With only one candidate, the election will be automatically extended for another week (unless someone happens to declare themselves in the next few hours).

@MartinSleziak Thanks for the nudge to do it!

This general discussion chat room gets frozen for inactivity pretty frequently, and has the feed when it's not frozen. Now is a great time to start a convo about how the community might better leverage this chat room.

Welcome to your new mod roles, @BharatMane @dvniel @ThomasOwens

@Laurel I do wish I had better news for you about this. Or alternatives to suggest. Will any other browsers work? SeaMonkey maybe?

How have things been for you these past few weeks? I know you were coming up against this on both mobile and desktop/laptop.

Hi @Laurel. I am sorry to let you know that we will be status-declining the Safari 16 bug report, since 16 is no longer supported. I just heard back about that today. The team did assess usage numbers. But they ultimately determined that we are not able to extend support to 16.

The detailed investigation you did is really appreciated, and will hopefully be to your ultimate benefit. Have a good weekend!

I've noted that in my bug report, and the dev also commented that we do declare support for the last two stable versions of browsers. So this may be something that gets addressed, especially given the recency of the change that is the apparent cause. But I can't promise anything, not today at least

Ah, I see you updated the post and noted the specific change

I'll let you know how things go about this, and I won't update the Meta post status until I get a clear answer. But I suspect this may be a version support thing and so won't get a fix. But this is pretty severe, and seems like it was a very recent update that did this, so perhaps there is something to be done.

I held on to my original iPhone SE for a long time as well. And then got the newer SE. I do like the small size.

Ah, so it looks like we do not support 16 any longer.

I think sometimes you can get the newer version of Safari in the app store even if the OS update isn't possible on the machine. That might be one option for the Mac anyway.

It's 10pm his time so I don't think I will hear back today

Everything I have is using Safari 17 so that would explain my inability to reproduce. I asked the dev to take another look at your post, and asked if we dropped support for Safari 16 or something along those lines that would explain this.

I assume you've cleared cache and all that? When was the last time things on Mac Safari worked fine?

I do appreciate that you see it on two iPhones, and now your Mac. And on different networks.

I'm still not seeing it myself though, on iPhone or Mac.

That's what I imagined from your description. And the error codes are helpful to note.

Can you get one on the iPhone and email it?

A screen shot would be good, if you can get one to me one way or another

I just tested on Mac Safari and I don't see any issues there either. I was able to review the question and it's ready to post. No weirdness on the editor toolbar or text display

Oh you see it on Mac Safari too?

Do you have any Safari extensions running on both devices?

Do you see it when not in incognito?

Even in incognito and logged out, I'm not seeing any issues. I could have posted the question on English SE

It didn't seem like anyone else in the chats yesterday was seeing it, so I wonder if the issue is specific to you?

This is with a non-staff account

I'm trying to reproduce the issue on iOS Safari and so far I am not able to
