I can't reproduce this on any of my devices, so I can't effectively investigate it. But I suspect that it's a recently-introduced bug in Chrome's hardware-accelerated rendering. Disabling hardware acceleration might fix it; maybe chrome://flags/#disable-accelerated-2d-canvas ? (NeuroticFish reports this isn't it)

If anyone can figure out exactly what causes it or whether I can change anything on my end to fix it, let me know.

@iasenko, I'm like nc, can't go to sleep unless all my chrome tabs are shut Smiley.

@cabalism, you can scroll down or hit home and reopen the browser other than that, nothing else apparently works...

Have you already solve this problem? It's kinda irritating you know, even if it doesn't show pure black, it loads very slow, some posts ended up being cut in the half just like sa cropped image. This happened after I updated my chrome in my phone.

I already cleared the cache, set the settings to default but still nothing happens. Does anyone of tried to re-install chrome browser?

Also present in my android device.
But it will disappear after swipe/scroll.. not a big deal though.

Well, it really is a big deal for it is quite a hassle, instead of waiting it to appear it just go blank, so dark that I feel even chrome doesn't likes me Sad

If you scroll down it works ok but.. sometimes you need to wait to scroll down.
-snip-
What the.... you have 37 tabs in the background (38 total)!
Hitting Back or Home button wont totally close the browser's pages, I'm surprised that you're not lagging at that point. (At least swipe the 37 unused pages.... ugh my OCD)

By the way, if you scroll up a lot, the page will refresh and you'll have to wait for it to reload [🔃] to scroll down again.

It sounds crazy but I usually use most of them, instead having bookmarks,I just open the tab I need.
Like I have a ready search for shitposters which I need only to refresh to start reporting, have the brainwallet ready to verify messages, have some important thread I refer to often, as the rules, search tips etc, have some other not crypto related tabs as well. Very easy for a quick action. So I guess it's not the best option but it's working fine for me Wink
I've never experienced any lag or issues, I have Huawei p10 lite and I'm quite happy with it Smiley

Same thing happened to me that's why I end up posting here. And yep, kinda annoying when every thread loads, black screen appeared. Though never encountered while using brave browser which has almost the same features, I bet much better as a fork of Chromium.

No big deal at all, but can be annoying. I played with the settings a little and no black screen til now. I could't find the delegated-renderer in my chrome flag list so I changed some setting I thought might be related to the issue. After a half day without the issue I set back to default settings. Let's see what happens.

The advice by iasenko was also suggested by a Community Specialist on Google Chrome Help Forum. A user was experiencing the black screen on his tablet and this was the advice that was posted:

I appreciate the information you've shared. Do you face the same issue on the Stable version of Chrome? If yes, please uncheck Use hardware acceleration (Menu> Settings> Show Advanced Settings > System menu) to see if that helps. Having done that, if the issue still persists, please check if adding a new user to Chrome makes a difference.

If the issue still persists, please let me know if you face it on another device as well.

Weird thing is lately, it started happening to me as well,  I'm experiencing something similar when browsing the forum using a samsung tablet, so android OS but not sure about the version will check it when back home, but the screen I see is blue and not black.

Will try the tricks and see if they will work.

I've disabled the Hardware acceleration in Chrome, as suggested by Theymos and I'll test it a bit today to see if there is any difference.

If someone else what to try, here some useful links for chrome >

Paste this in your mobile chrome to see what is hardware accelerated >
Code:
chrome://gpu/
a link to it > chrome://gpu/
To tweak the settings go to >
Code:
chrome://flags/
a link to it > chrome://flags/

Edit, the insert hyperlink function is adding automatically "http://" to the settings and the links are not working, just copy-paste them.


Here is how it looks like the problem, I made a video yesterday >

I'm having exactly same problem all day long on my Android 9 phone with nevest version of Chrome. I was nervous because I thought that problem is on my phone side and it's getting slow. I already wanted to throw my phone into the wall Cheesy. But I didn't faced similiar issues on other websites.
Looks like the ads are not (the only) problem.
Right now I got the black screen on the "show new replies to your posts" list, which contains no ads.
Seems more puzzling that I thought in the beginning.
Strange, so far I saw black screen only after opening a thread. Show new replies to your posts and forum boards lads fine for me.

I don't.

It loads up fine for me... Probably an issue to do with the forum ads.

I think the problem are the forum ads:  https://imgur.com/gallery/GzKBVUj
The Cryptex one for example and cryptoTV have black backgrounds, we have to check it, because it happens quite random same as the forum ads

You're right it's the cryptex forum ad.

Are ads in their own div with separate ids to other ones on the page? I'm guessing its something to do with how mobile apps work.

This used to be more prevalent in the windows xp / 98 days and with internet explorer.
Basically, it's a graphics / low ram issue.
1. Just disable hardware acceleration from the settings and you'll be fine.
2. Get better hardware.
i dont think so its really the cause of low ram .. because its a glitch in selected apps.. when a new android app updates comes out it dose not customized for every model of android devices.. thats why this error is hapening .

It's a glitch in the html parsing rather than an issue with the actual operating system.
The scroll approach works.
I don't think updating from a 4x2.3GHz+4x1.3GHz processor is going to do much. The ram is only 6gb but I have desktops with less than that.

I'm on android 8.1 and chrome 72.0.3626.105. I think it's an issue with the browser but it only happens on this forum? Does anyone know of a way to solve this as refreshing the page doesn't work.
Same issue faced by me.
I am using google chrome 72.0.3626.76 on android 9 and once i reload forum pages, black blank screen appears.
First i thought it is issue with my device but reading OP, i think others too are facing the same issue.
Maybe the latest chrome version is not supporting forum reload or maybe something else is the issue.

I put pmalek on ignore and it didn't do it again with this thread but my conscience will lead me to unignoring him soon enough.
Hmm that is strange. But you were already experiencing the problem before I posted here, hence my posts trying to figure out why it's happening.
Can it be my signature or the dark logo?
You probably can't see what I am writing since you have me on Ignore but try to check if you are experiencing the same issues for other users that wear the FortuneJack sig/avatar. Maybe visit the Signature campaign thread or their ANN page.

Yeah I got it again with you on ignore just now so it's probably not you/fortune jack.


Maybe I'll try disabling signatures if it gets too naooying but otherwise I'll have to use one of the workarounds.
