This is odd indeed.
How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

@Opolork You might want to open the developer console in Firefox e.g. and look at the network logs:

As you can see I get a 304 Not Modified and to the right its marked as being sent from cache. Would be interesting to see yours.

Also bear in mind that we are using cloudflare for caching, so static content might not get synced in the cloudflare network for every proxy at the same time.

@Opolork yes, Developer Tools can be a little bit intimidating

Please see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Network_Monitor to understand the basics about how it works.

No. Gremlins are at work, I think.

I had the old version, then I hit Control+Shift+R in Firefox to reload ignoring cache. Now you're V.
