Can't load deals due to "We have released a new version of slickdeals click ok" but it's just a json response.

I am getting the same. I do not even have an "OK" button to click. All I want to do is see the deals and go to them on a normal website. I do not all this fancy stuff that big corporation keep trying to force to users. I do not need everything created for mobile users. Heck I don't even take the time to use third parties for extra cash back. You have a great user.

This should be resolved now but let us know if there's any further instances of anyone encountering the error.
