Is it just me or has Vimeo been broken for about 3 years now

Post #357,778 by Another Scott 5/21/12 9:35:14 PM Reply	Is it just me or has Vimeo been broken for about 3 years now It hasn't worked right for me on Firefox on Winders for around that long (with AdBlock+ and FlashBlock installed but disabled). And it doesn't work for me on a newly installed copy of Opera. Apparently it works on Ashton's iMac. This old T41 ThinkPad doesn't like it at all, though. It never loads the controls in FF, and under Opera the progress bar updates ungodly slowly and the image changes maybe 3 times in the few minutes I gave it. But it hasn't worked on a recent Win7 laptop either. Oh well. It's hard to complain when it's free. Cheers, Scott.

As to FF (por moi) ... merely wading through the first third of the config menu for NoScript, changed with each new frill, caused me to believe that, Yes, you Could... achieve a level of er, control granularity? that a One-note Accountant might lust after.. if you're mad as a Hatter. But I already buried Doze and its perpetual, pewling diapered-Neediness on all scales --I want a seamless, intelligent and "don't bother me, except: occasionally" raison d'etre. FF demands more tinkering than ... up with which, I shall put. iMac: 3.3 years and counting, of entirely satisfactorily sparing me the liff of a fucking bookkeeper. And even the Pwned interlude was a lark--imagine The Beast getting out a patch (with no discernible side-effect, yet seen) --within a couple days! Thanks Stevie!

Despite other problems with the Google-owned service, for playing video, Youtube wins hands down. If it ever fails, then the blame is clearly Flash throwing a fit. Vimeo, on the other hand, I have often found to be flakey. Only in recent months have I seen it "okay" in 32bit Opera on Linux, but the UX still leaves a lot to be desired. It has never worked for me on 64bit Opera on Linux. Wade. Just Add Story http://justaddstory.wordpress.com/
