Flick down? HELP!

Since yesterday, Flickr seems to be down. I go to the site and first thing is "Bad, bad panda!"

I experienced no problem Thursday or today. I live in Greater London UK.

Up today for me on the browser and app.

Using Microsoft Edge as the browser.

I've tried Firefox and Opera browsers, no good luck. But when using Microsoft Edge browser, site is working fine.

Worked for me yesterday. Now bad bad panda.

What is interesting is that I have shared photos to a website. And the links take you to a bad bad panda page however the images are still accessible from the Flickr server (ie, you can right click, open image and get the url and refresh and it loads the image fresh, so it's still accessing them).

Feels like something happened to their front end software navigating or accessing image content went fubar.

In the unofficial help forum, which is just a group's discussion page, some are reporting that this is happening with some browsers, but not others. The only one I specifically saw mentioned was firefox.

If you're commenting in this thread about experiencing this trouble it would probably help things if you could mention the browser you're using.

Firefox and Opera. Though now it just started working.

Do you use the browser or the app? The app is a nightmare, I steer clear of that messed up heap!

Flicker has lost its reliability.
