I've followed dozens of badly formatted links from AtBC to UD.  I know how to repair these links so that they work.  I've never seen this particular symptom before.

I've followed hundreds of well-formatted links to pages at UD that loaded properly.

Using Chrome, I encounter mountains of slippery horseshit, most emitted by a small collection of perseverative gasbags. The bald, unrepentant fuckwittery is very clear.

Using Safari the picture is similar, with subtle differences. Both load the horseshit more quickly than I can cart it away, although Safari leavens the outgassing with a hint of nutty finish I find hard to resist.

FireFox discloses better balance than either Chrome or Safari and, at least on paper, probably yields the best fidelity. But Firefox never quite rises above the plodding cephalofecal stupidity of UD to capture the shimmering shit-for-brains mist that engulfs UD at its best.

So I keep looking.
