I found myself thinking that OTOH, these kinds of things are the only ones really forcing development priorities to shift and hunt for additional resources. We might otherwise be stuck on ESR78 for another decade.
It is always positive when something that is so behind the “current” versions of things get updated even a little bit, and I’m happy for the upcoming update. I just don’t want to people to think this is some kind of magic bullet that solves the issues with Cloudflare.
When comparing how long it took to get from ESR 78 to ESR 91, and how fast the ESR 102 is coming out after ESR 91, it is a positive surprise at least for me. With this rate we might catch relevant (actively supported) version of ESR in couple of years.

Let’s hope that Jolla will keep this phase or even accelerates the development! Catching the supported version would be so great
For the sailfish browser (whichever version) it is easier to maintain a list of sites that do work. As long as you can get aurora or f-droid and have app-support you do the usual sailfish-thing … work around it!
Did Twitter stop working for anyone else?
Edit: nevermind, my problems don’t seem isolated to ESR 91
To clarify, esr102 is very far from being release ready. I see it very unlikely that it would hit the first Sailfish OS 5.1 version. What’s good is that it can be rather easily be pushed to 5.1 update release when it is release.

Good clarification, as non tech person it is hard to estimate the amount of work still required. But definitely good use of the resources to push the browser to be up to date once again. Of course it will take time which is understandable.

Rule of thumb: The last 10% of the work takes 90% of the time.
Let’s hope, that Jolla is already in the last 10% of the work.

These sites report an outdated browser and do not show anything else but the warning:

So, there seems no way to use the phone (JollaC2) for public transportation in Paris.
On my Xperia 10 II, these sites display a warning the first time they load. But when I reload the page, they render correctly.
Reloading the page(s) helps, indeed.

This works for me on an X10III.
The other site is the same for other users.
