Lost capability to edit posts?

Seems to be recent, i.e. today sometime, but I have lost the ability to edit any comments I have made.
Moving over the 'cog' has no effect & is not accessible.
Using MacOS Mojave 10.14.6, Brave browser 1.57.64 Chromium 116.0.5845.188
Rebooted, cleared caches, but no joy. Weird.

OK, fixed. This was a weird consequence of fixing the Chrome bugs introduced by Google yesterday. Basically, Chromium-based browsers are currently all over the damn place - nothing's behaving the way it should, and I have no idea why. Especially on a version as old as 1.57.64.

What on earth happened? It used to be that Chromium-based browsers were the most reliable when it comes to standards, but...sheesh.

Thanks & sorry to have been adding to your unnecessarily overloaded to-do list

It's not you, it's the browser devs. I genuinely thought we were past all this shit over a decade ago, it baffles me as to how - with all the advances we've made in automated regression testing - it can possibly have started cropping up again.

I'm not deliberately so awkwardly outdated & update averse, but as I still have functional versions of apps like MS Office that are only 32 bit, I'm stuck with my old but still reliable & functional 2012 MBP.
That's progress, but standing still really isn't an option.
Conundrums eh?
