Somewhat of a Luddite, here,

But why are many of the older photobucket posts blurred with a water mark when viewed in my laptop web browser, but these same photos are crystal clear without the watermark when viewed on my Android phone?

Boy thats a good one. And your viewing the same exact post ? Sometimes when viewing a post with pics on  my desktop, the pics are blurry because it takes longer to load than with my android phone. But watermarks on one and not the other ? I think maybe the chi-coms are in your laptop boris.. Joke . thats a new one to me  :o

I've noticed it also, did a google search and found this:

"Photobucket currently hosts over 130 million photos for over 11 million free users! Effective June 1, 2019, new hosting limits will take effect that will impact a small portion of our image hosters.

What Are the New Limits?
Free hosters will be restricted to 25MB of hosting bandwidth per month. YOUR CURRENT USAGE IS OVER 25MB PER MONTH SO THIS NEW LIMITATION WILL AFFECT YOU.

What Happens If I Go Over My Bandwidth Allowance?
Free hosters, like you, who use more than 25MB of bandwidth will have all of their hosted photos watermarked and blurred."
