Signed in using Twitter - JS failed to load

[remy]

Describe the bug

I sign in using Twitter, and the JavaScript breaks causing a partially usable site:

To Reproduce

Steps for me to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to incognito window
2. Click on twitter sign in
3. See screenshot / Error getting user and CSRF Token Error: Couldn't find user data on page.

I strongly doubt if you can replicate using a typical account, and I suspect it's something to do with my twitter account sign in.

Screenshots

If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Mac High Sierra
• Browser: Chrome Stable
• Version: 74.0.3729.131

Additional context

I appear to have linked my @remy github account already, but I thought I had previous linked using '@Rem' from Twitter - but seeing as I could replicate in an incognito browser (only 1password extension runs) - I don't think it was local to my browser.

Hmm strange. We'll look into this -- it does sound account specific.

I'm seeing the same sort of CSRF error message, only im on linux seamonkey (latest), and I'm signed in via github. with the same result as in the screenshot above. (account icon is grey, doesn't open my user page, my followed tags don't show, only the top post even shows up at all.)

This may be the same issue I've been having. I initially signed up using Twitter, but then linked my Github account, and used it to sign in at work.

I'm using Palemoon on Windows 7, 64-bit at work, and Palemoon on PCLinuxOS, 64-bit at home.

same (or similar) here, I tweeted first, then remembered I can post a bug report :)

On FF 60.6.3esr, Debian 9.9 (stable) fully patched. I log in with Twitter.

@jessleenyc Sorry to bug you on this, but I have been unable interact with anything on dev.to (posts, people, my profile) for over a week now due to this regression. For me dev.to is now useless in Firefox, it of course works in Chromium (which I would rather not use thanks).

[jessleenyc]

Hey @phlash -- I'm going to send you a quick email. Wondering if you can help me troubleshoot on your end.

[jessleenyc]

Also, for everyone who's experiencing this: do you have any extensions installed that could be affecting this?

[jessleenyc]

@phlash did you change your github username recently? I can't find a DEV profile that matches your exact github username right now, so I'm actually unable to email you. Mind emailing me directly at jess@dev.to?

[ThomasTheSpaceFox]

@jessleenyc The only browser extension i use (aside from chatzilla and the DOM inspector which ship with seamonkey) is a gopher protocol plugin. Edit: disabling all extensions doesn't fix this on seamonkey in the slightest.

[remy]

I ran my original test and reproduction in an incognito window with extensions disabled.

I'm experiencing the same problem in Firefox, logging in via Github. The page works OK in other browsers (Opera, Chromium). Safe mode in Firefox didn't help.
Interestingly, visiting the page in a Private Browsing window displays everything while I'm not logged in, but after logging in, the problem reappears.
The console shows the following 3 errors:

Hello @phlash & @choroba , can you check if you can access dev.to now?

[phlash]

Works for me :)

[ThomasTheSpaceFox]

@maestromac I can confirm its working on my end too.

[choroba]

Yes, it's back!

[maestromac]

Seems like this is resolved. Please let me know if otherwise!!
