comments in browsers in iPad (7th generation) (ios 15.4.1) suddenly lost “reply” and “quote”buttons in readers’ postings

Very strange indeed - reply and quote buttons suddenly vanished from all my browsers except safari, tho it then lost them also. One possibility is that I had deleted past history, as I occasionally do - in the past, this has caused no repercussions. 

I eventually restored a “history” and the buttons returned to safari then, with more restoration of “history”, they returned to other browsers. Can anyone offer advice?

iPad, iPadOS 15
