Solved: Site has become very slow for me

[EvilC]

Still very slow for me on both phone and PC.

On my iOS phone, it’s running okay under Firefox but slow under chrome and safari.

For me too on most devices.It was working fine a few days ago after it being terrible.It's slightly better than it was last time round,but still very annoying.

[davids cross]

Very, very slow for me.

Laptop. Edge.

I stopped by here as just started to experience the same issues.

iMac safari it tends to hang a while and is noticeable. On my iPhone, I’ll write something and the text often doesn’t show and then pops up a few seconds later at warp speed.

Hope that helps in anyway.

Thanks for the reports. Our tech team are still looking into this one.

(Completelt unrelated aside, but is posting on here when on a mobile absolutely dreadful for anybody else? I've taken to writing anything other than a short response to a post offline then copy-pasting it onto here. Maybe it's just my phone but I don't seem to have an issue elsewhere)

Still f*cking awful on my laptop. Whatever somebody has done has completely ruined the experience of coming on here.
Was on Chrome - awful. Switched to Firefox - still rubbish.

Yep, that's what I'm getting Samba. Very slow to type on and text ends up playing catch up quite often. Only go on through my mobile so not sure if it's a more general issue.

Although this post has been oddly fine. I do seem to get it more on the pages in the General Discussion where there are lots of embedded Twitter posts or YouTube videos, wondering if it's linked to loading those up.

It happens on my desktop as well.

I often have to rewrite the first few words as they never catch up.

Everything has been fine for a while....but now having issues again using Chrome on Samsung tablet (Android)

Is still all good on Safari/iPhone and Chrome/Laptop

Have they tried switching everything off and back on again?
That's my top tip having done 40 years unblemished service in the IT industry.

This issue should've been resolved now.

If anyone is still experiencing problems, please advise your hardware (PC, mobile etc)/platform (Windows, Apple etc)/browser (Chrome/Firefox).

If you are having issues with a slow running PC/laptop etc, please also try running a check for malware/viruses (Malwarebytes is free and does a good job).

STill the same for me:
PC/Windows/Chrome and Iphone (x2)/IOS/Safari.

Painfully slow on iPad Pro running iOS 16.05.1 using Safari browser. All other sites run fine, just KUMB that struggles.

Takes an age to open a thread or post a comment. When typing, text fails to appear for 20 seconds then suddenly throws it all down then locks up again.

Same for me with an iPhone/safari

Pretty much unusable on the iPhone at the moment. Has been for a week or two.

Massive time lag when trying to type a post but the bigger problem is that you get a white screen when scrolling through a thread and it takes 5-10 seconds to actually render the text.

IOS 16.5.1 safari.

No significant issues on the iPad using the same IOS.

[Crouchend_Hammer]

Still have the same issues across all Web providers and on phone and laptop
Firefox is the best for mobile I find but doesn't always work

[HammerMan2004]

Still the same. It’s awful on Chrome on a mobile.

[Macca1973]

Same as above, Chrome on iPhone. Becoming unusable.
