    Default Forums “Not Secure”

    On iOS phones I get a “not secure” warning on my address bar for the forums.
    Is this a cause for alarm?

    That just means it isn't a secured site. IE not HTTPS. Considering what is here, a comic and forums, not much to worry about.

    IIRC, the forums use some alternative security features to the normal https, and that means that a lot of browsers inaccurately see the site as insecure.

    Sheriff: I suspect that's it. It's the usual cause of this kind of message. I'll lock this and Rawhide can chime in, if need be.
