Something broke. I think there was no problem when I last visited a couple days ago. Today all posts have only a down arrow for the spillover actions, no icons. If I move the mouse above where the icons /should/ be, the pointer turns into a finger. So the actions are still available but just invisible.
(edit) when I use Firefox and enable displaying images, only then can I see icons. I normally use Ungoogled Chromium with images disabled (images dramatically increase my Internet costs). So I wonder if someone tried to get fancy and install images instead of icons from fonts.
Upon seeing your edit, I don’t know what the problem is, but @[email protected] might know how this works. slrpnk.net didn’t upgrade to a new Lemmy release in the last few days, so that wouldn’t be the problem. Did you upgrade your browser?
No I did not change my browser. But today it works so it seems they fiddled with an anti-ai-scraper mechanism and now it works again.
