New cookie management seems to have made it impossible to connect to ResearchGate
I appreciate the brand new cookie management/privacy measures with the cookie jars and all, but the immediate effect has been to make it impossible to reach through ordinary clicks or browsing. I can get to it through private window browsing, but I can't reach it through clicks on emails from ResearchGate. This site is an important part of my professional life. Please work it out with them.
Thanks,
Vinton Thompson

Hey VThompson, thanks for reporting this. I made a report myself about this new cookie privacy feature affecting banking sites.
What happens when you click the link from the email? Nothing happens at all or is a blank page opened?
I'm curious if you get any kind of error message at all. Or even told that something has been blocked.
The Shield icon can tell you if anything was blocked: https://snipboard.io/pOQaCf.jpg
To see if anything was blocked, you can click the Shield icon to the left of the url bar and under the Blocked section, can you see if trackers or cookies were blocked?
If you do, click where the 2nd red arrow in that screenshot points, you should be able to see the names of what was blocked. If you can copy down what you see there, then I can give this information to the developers to get ResearchGate working again.
