Button to follow thread missing on desktop

There used to be a button to follow a thread at the top of the page. Little small lad that would turn blue when you pressed it. Seems to be gone on desktop. Is there a way to follow a thread now without having to comment in it?

The bookmark button is still there for me. Can we see a screenshot of what you're seeing?

Used to be there at the top. Looks to be linked to ads someway and an ad blocker will hide it

It's related to adblock and trackers being blocked. Using Ghostery and adblock+ will hide it. On chrome with Windows here too
