I use bromine as my browser on Android and when I navigate to the lemmy.nz homepage in bromite the "All" button does not work. Works fine on lemmy.world, issue with latest update?

Weird. Have you tried a hard refresh? I'm not familiar with Bromite but often you do this by long pressing on the refresh button in a ... menu.

Have you tried any other browser?

Edit: also, I went to install Bromite and the only thing I can find hasn't been updated in two years. I presume you aren't using a browser not updated in two years (massive security risk!) so are you able to clarify where you installed from. Are you using the Chromite fork of Bromite?

first things first i really appreciate the effort. going to be honest i wasn't really expecting a response. to answer you questions.

I only had bromite installed so i tried some other lemmy instances to test, but not another browser. I did check it on the desktop as well (which worked fine).
i use f-droid to install most software on Android.
i had recently re-installed my phone and assumed everything was up to date.. i guess it was, doesn't help when the repo hasn't been updated in 2 years.
i just learned that bromite's main developer got bored and basically left. so yes, i was using a 2 year old browser 😳

So i installed Cromite and Firefox and all works well. I do appreciate having the lemmy.nz instance so thank you. and apologies if i created any work for you.

It's no trouble at all! Glad to hear you got it working, and that you updated your browser 🙂
