Day before yesterday links to NY Times articles etc. quit working. I can open the site itself, but when I click on a link within it, it very briefly flashes on, then disappears, leaving a blank screen. I had not done any updates etc. Any ideas out there?
Mac mini
Just tried https://www.nytimes.com/ on M1 Mac Mini running Ventura 13.5.1 with Safari 16.6 and then duplicated with with Firefox 116.0.3
All is working fine
FYI on Firefox as this was first time to NY Times on that Browser and hit the continue
Did get a Pop Up as per below image.
Ok so How Exactly were you able to arrive at this website to see my above reply
Please provide very specific details, if you would.
From the Apple Auto Notification of your reply via e-mail to my computer

If I click on an Link which the NY Times site I get the below image.
I can not see any Article in their site without having an account with them or Subscribe ( $$ ) to their site
It is only links from the NY Times. I can go to the Times, but if I click on a link to an article, it flashes onscreen in a new tab, then goes blank. I can open Spelling Bee, but from there cannot see Hints: the tab opens, the page flashes, then disappears.
No other site behaves this way. Only the NY Times!
Welcome
With the advent of the Internet, Computer, Tablets and Cellphones, News outlets have found people no longer Buying the Paper Version of their papers.
So they have found a way to Monetize their content
Like any other business, they have to make $$ to survive and thus the blocking of reading their material for Free
EDITED - spelling errors
I got the solution courtesy of the NYT chat. He advised me to clear the Firefox cache, and bingo.
Thank you for the post.
Mine is an M2 Mini, same OS and Firefox. Cannot open the links.
Thank you for looking at it!
Ok
Though un-asked question from me - Do you have an Account or Subscribe $$ to NY Times On-line ?
FWIW, Firefox 117 is available.
NY Times links don't appear
