BTW, I noticed recently that the Content Server also doesn't like my desktop browser anymore - Waterfox Classic.

Now I'm planning to migrate to Waterfox current or maybe Vivaldi.
I know I should upgrade as well but I just can't give up on ol' BLU. After I went though 1/2 dozen different phones/tablets to replace my PW4, I found my old BLU Advance 5.0 stuffed in the bottom of a drawer. I flashed the ROM, replaced the battery, and now, it's my ideal e-reader. Its size is one step up from a mini, it's lightweight and the screen can fit more than two paragraphs of text.

It's the only device I use for reading and this is the first real hiccup I've had with the content server, so I'll just have to forego any future upgrades and keep ol' BLU happy.
