I’m happy that Slug/IDW seems to be working properly now but there could be a possible downside I’ve observed. On my older, un-updatable (IOS-wise) iPad, Slug now crashes the Brave browser. It’s not the first issue I’ve seen with the old iPad. I’m getting Slug fine on my phone but looks like a new iPad could be in my future. Not sure if the issue is related, but the timing of the “fix” is coincidental.
Just a reminder, intel companies don't like you to use older OS when you won't buy the new one and media companies love to give you tracking cookies to dominate your browser, so it's clean the crap and try before you buy a new one.
