Kinja issue -- does anyone else get the "screen has been shifted upwards" issue?

Talking about this:

There’s this giant white rectangle that blocks half to all of the screen, seems to appear at random both on Oppo and Jalopnik, both on my PC running Google Chrome and on my phone running Safari. The whole window seems to have shifted upwards (within its own browser window?) so I can’t scroll all the way up either. Like aggressive stance/bro-truck wheels, there’s a negative offset.

Has anyone else had this problem? I can’t recall any posts complaining about it lately but it’s been happening to me for a while.

Yup. It’s made getting to specific comments on Chrome for me completely impossible. It even covered up part of the main page. If I try to reload the page, it just skips to the next article.

It seems to be something with the comment section, ugh. As soon as comments start to load, there goes the entire page. When I tried to access my notifications page, this happened:

The address suggests that it’s part of a failed A/B test, so hopefully telling Helpdesk to knock it off actually does something. I put in a Kinja helpdesk ticket about this and the stupid newsletter pop-up, FWIW. I suggest following suit since it affects the main page, too:  https://kinja.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000106393

It even covered up part of David’s Tourareg article, although that at least fixed with a reload...........on a different browser. That supports my A/B test theory, though.

Ah good point on the A/B test, that makes a lot of sense.

Ugh. Now I’m seeing ads on Oppo too with “G/O Media may get a commission. ”
