I've just had a new phone handset and now using a Samsung galaxy S22 instead of a S21. Both set up in exactly the same way.  Apps and website setting transferred over automatically.   However,  when I'm trying to view every single  post on any board on this forum I get a pop up asking me to allow cookies.  Every single time.  I have allowed cookies until I am blue in the face.  Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong.  I never had any trouble with any other phone.

    I'm getting exactly the same. Thing is, I'm using the same phone I've had for years, galaxy s8. One day no cookie popup, next day, every new page throws the"accept cookies" popup.
    It's driving me mad to the point I'll be avoiding the site soon.

    i am also getting this using Samsung browser on galaxy s21 handset android 11

    Edit: the recent update to the Samsung browser may be to blame. I have gone into settings then 'browsing privacy dashboard' and turned off 'smart anti tracking' and the problem has gone away.

    I have the same problem using a Samsung A5 (2017) with Android 8.0.

    Not an issue until recently.

    I've switched over to Chrome and the issue has gone so it's looking very much like an android update issue.
