Right click and new tab works for me too (on a Mac). Another thing I've noticed is that notifications now only say 'somebody' responded to a post. As you imply, I'm confident AN are hard at wotk on the case ...

Same. The problem is that the web page doesn't have and can't get focus at least the first time the site is opened in a browser. This is likely to be an underlying javascript bug in the software they use and outside the direct control of AN I suspect.

Perhaps the desktop and laptop are different in the adblocking, cookie acceptance and spam settings.

If it was Windows, both would be affected.

Only the desktop is affected and only on the forums Newsletter. So I just use either my laptop or phone to read the Newsletter.

Compare the settings between the laptop and desktop...EG

 

Same Browser? If so compare Extensions, Add-Ins etc.

Try a different Browser.

 

Run CCleaner  (Free version is fine) on the offending machine.

Not if you set it up properly before running any of the options!

Another poster was talking about an anti-Australian bias in the algorithm, try to keep up.

Please read what I said........  "CC will remove all cookies by default " I do exactly as you appear to suggest in order to retain certain cookies! The OP appears to be something of a novice hence my warning.

That was a deliberate change made by the forum admins some months back... Nothing new with that change. And yes it was an intentional change, not a malfunction/bug that will be repaired.
