I've also been asked to verify I'm human several times this evening! Surely once is enough?

I'm getting this too!

Hi all

We're aware of an issue with loading times and we're investigating now - we'll update as soon as we can.

Same, on Android phone.

SabreIsMyFave · 21/02/2025 22:18

Pheweee! I thought it was just me, (my internet or my laptop playing up!) Even when I clicked on a 'thanks' and a 'love' icon on somebody's post earlier on, it took about 30 seconds for it to activate. Even when I clicked 'preview' on my post here, I got a whirly circle for about 30-40 seconds.

MuddyPawsIndoors · 21/02/2025 22:17

Yes, very slow.

Even bookmarks are taking ages.

lavenderlou · 21/02/2025 22:16

What is a DoS attack?
A denial of service (DoS) attack is an attempt to overload a website or network, with the aim of degrading its performance or even making it completely inaccessible.

In case I'm not the only one who didn't know.

Yep same must be an issue. I wondered if it was a connection issue due to weather

Divastrout · 21/02/2025 22:11

Same issue here

AnneLovesGilbert · 21/02/2025 22:09

It took 35 seconds for my post above to show.

AnneLovesGilbert · 21/02/2025 22:08

Same

JanesLittleGirl · 21/02/2025 22:08

Looks like a Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) attack.
