I PMed the person who reported the missing follow button because I suspect it has to do with the reports of hidden download buttons, and indeed, they wrote it was Adblock Plus causing it.
<DasSkelett[m]>
Although I wouldn't recommend anyone to use Adblock Plus for a few reasons, I'll try to find out if we can do something about that.

It seems to be the "Block Tracking through Social-Media-Symbols" option. I guess they trigger on everything that has "Follow" on it.

certen sized elements are blocked by adblockers because they crospond to usual banner sized
<DasSkelett[m]>
Seems to be triggering on the class `.follow-button`
<VITAS[m]>
we could rename the class and see what happens
<DasSkelett[m]>
Yep, checking if it also blocks on localhost, then going to try that out
<DasSkelett[m]>
Renamed to `follow-mod-button`, works
<RockyTV>
make the change and recommend the user to switch to ublock origin :P
<DasSkelett[m]>
I'm planning to do exactly these two steps 😄

huh...weird... I run NoScript and ublock, and no issues with the follow button vOv
<RockyTV>
that's because ublock is an adblocker that works
<RockyTV>
adblock+, adblock origin and simply "ublock" are rip off ad blockers that have an ad whitelist
<RockyTV>
ublock origin is the best adblocker there is
<KineticSloth8StoneBlue[m]>
oh wait... ublock seems to not like a bunch of the fonts
<KineticSloth8StoneBlue[m]>
ok.. fixed by allowing the blocked objects 😉
<KineticSloth8StoneBlue[m]>
oof..wait.. not loading the title image 😛
<KineticSloth8StoneBlue[m]>
ok.. fixed that... page seems to look fine, but ublock still shows 3 elements blocked? vOv
<DasSkelett[m]>
I think Adblock Plus is older than uBlock Origin (not sure), but I remember some very sketchy things going on back then (whitelisting ads for money and stuff)
<KineticSloth8StoneBlue[m]>
in the log
<RockyTV>
DasSkelett[m], it is, but then they started selling ads to users
<VITAS[m]>
sorry i had to come in here: buahahahahHAHA rolling on floor
