?? https://LinuxQuestions.org ?? SELQ ? :D


Is it just me, or is there some special reason why I am (suddenly) browsing LQ via Secure HTTP? This is the page I'm on right now:

No, it's just http here for me. I can specify https manually and it works, but it always defaults to http. Have you tried manually changing the URL back to http?

Hmm, yes I knew that I could manually select either/or (unless of course the site specifies HTTPS) but I hadn't bothered manually changing it/trying to change it back, I just left it.,.
Thing is, I never selected HTTPS to begin with, it seems to have selected itself, and I was just wondering what might have caused it maybe a browser glitch? (FF 1.5.0.11)

Maybe you clicked a link (possibly from me)? I always log into https since I stay logged in for most of the day and access LQ from different PCs. And I have shunted this over to LQ Suggestions and Feedback because it's a question about the site (sort of).

The default is http, but myself and most of the mods (as well as some members) use https.
