goto first new post broken with Chrome on Windows?

That is funky. Whenever Chrome acts weird for me, I just clear cache and browsing history (and everything else) and it starts working again.

I experienced a similar issue with Firefox on Windows 7. I'm not sure how to fix it; it seems to work when it wants to. Though Chrome probably isn't the best browser for Windows because of the tick rate/power consumption issue...

Having the same problem on Chrome Windows 10 and Android. No such problems in Opera* on Android

I just rooted and blocked ads in my hosts file - works system-wide, and I don't need to use Opera.

I'd like to bump this thread. I'm still having the issue on a clean install of Firefox on a clean install of Windows 7, and also on Chrome on Android 5. I'm thinking it's some kind of server-side issue in vBulletin. When I click the go to new post button on a thread on the portal, it takes me to things I've already read, in some instances, days ago. What's the fix?

Yeah, I've seen the Microsoft data on that also. It's honestly not an issue for my Windows 10 machine, though - I've probably only used it for about 3 hours unplugged, cumulative... and that during meetings. Plus, our conference rooms here are all setup for wireless ChromeCast, which makes Chrome a must have. And it's nice having the synchronization across devices (as I use Chrome on multiple devices) when it comes to history and bookmarks.
