Default browser shows NOT SECURE

At the top of my screen using "edge", it shows not secure, only when I am on this site. I have also experienced problems while using this site and believe it is some form of censorship? I am not computer savvy and wanted to report this to you for your awareness. Please advise. Thank You

To the immediate left of your address, there is a warning symbol and the words "Not secure"

Look at address below:

Means traffic to and from this site is not encrypted. For most internet forums, its a budget issue - either the admins are not paying for the newest/greatest version of the forum software, or they are not paying the extra costs from the hosting company. Completely normal and not a sign of anything nefarious by the admins or by anyone else. Just be sure not to use the password for this site anywhere else and don't post your financial info on this forum and you're golden.
