Martin Brinkmann at gHacks reports

Users of Stylish [a web browser extension "that can apply a user-supplied style sheet to a web page, in addition to the Cascading Style Sheets provided by the website itself"] who have set their styles to auto-update may have noticed that they become corrupt in the process since October 6, 2016.

This is caused by an infrastructure move after ownership of the project was transferred to another party.

[...] Probably the biggest issue right now is that users are reporting that styles are not delivered in working condition during updates. It seems to be a transport issue and not one of storage.

[...] It is highly suggested to turn off automatic updates for userstyles until the issue is resolved.

[...] The issues [share] similarities with how the then-popular userscripts.org website stopped working from one day to the next. Lets hope that this is not a repeat of that.

    I completely agree. Reading this white text on black background this very moment.

    The Reader view in Firefox is a weak attempt to make it so for the masses. Too bad the column width can't be easily manipulated.
