Recently I've found that the format has all changed and the maps are blurred and no longer clear. Does any one know what is the problem?

How are you using it - which browser to its web site, or is it via an app? And what device - phone, table, Windows PC, other PC?

Via Firefox on PC running Windows 10. Settings have not changed over the past few months.

The map display is fine with Firefox on Xubuntu 20.04. Nothing appears to have changed. It is hard to find the close button for the little area on the top left, but it always is with Firefox. Perhaps there has been a dodgy Firefox update on Windows. Chrome usually works better for Open Street Map, but is giving problems on my system since the last Chrome update.

I cleared the cache, but that did not make any difference. It turns out that the 'magnification' had become set rather high, but only for the OM page. A few Ctrl- 's has cured it and the display looks normal now.
