The mystery of the missing sharing buttons

Hey, what happened to all the sharing buttons at the bottom of each post? I don't know. The plugin I use for those things updated itself last night and removed them. I went into the settings page, and sure enough it listed no active buttons. It told me to drag and drop the ones I wanted, but there was no list of things to choose from.

I'm sure there's an answer to this, but I'm a little pressed for time this morning. If it hasn't magically repaired itself by this afternoon I'll dive back in and see what I can do.

FALSE ALARM! It was all because I had changed my AdBlock settings. Everything is actually fine.

    while you're working on the website, up/down vote, sorting comments and edit comments features would all be appreciated. thanks!

    I've never seen any sharing buttons, but that's probably due to all the gizmos I have to prevent me from ever seeing things like that.

    On the other hand this would be a wonderful opportunity to initiate some ability for us plebes to edit comments so we don't always sound like dunks on blender.

    Doesn't everyone block all of that crap?

    There's even a political angle - Facebook, while not as bad as Fox by magnitude, is indeed algorithmic poison, and is the future-Fox, when everyone older than me (~50) kicks it.

    Block them. It cuts off their oxygen, a tiny bit at a time. (Think you don't make a difference? It is the same argument as voting.)
