Page freeze

I find it hard that MN can't be bothered to update.

And here too, I have almost left MN now after being here so many years.im finding it impossible to read a whole post without the white page then appearing. It's a miracle I can actually post this ! I think I have almost given up, then I say to myself " I'll just try once again " it's def the adverts because until the adverts load I can't do anything at all, then I click on thread I want and a line appears under it, then another wait and if I'm lucky thread will open ( or not )

still happening here too.

Same here. While I'm on site stuff can I ask how to delete notifications you've read and are no longer active on?

Same issues here. Blanket white pages, not refreshing, freezing. I have actually started using DuckDuckGo which is better but still not working normally like other pages

Exactly what happens for me, last few days it’s been really awful again it’s taken me over five minutes to type this out &as what I type each letter takes an age before it appears it’s incredibly frustrating

Just dropping in to report that I'm still getting issues. Any progress being made on fixing it @JoMumsnet and @LilyMumsnet? It's incredibly tiresome.

Same.

It’s simple to download the DuckDuckGo app, and I only need to use it for MN, interestingly.

Mine is on my laptop, using Chrome, page unresponsive. It happens on all and any threads I pick from Active, it's been happening for days.

I didn't bother to report it, because I know from experience nothing is ever done about these issues, but I saw the thread so thought I'd add my voice.

@JoMumsnet and @LilyMumsnet is there any progress to report on this?
Are you waiting for more details from posters?
I can't pinpoint which ads proceed the blank white page as it happens so fast.
And I pay no attention to the adverts.
And of course it's anyone's guess ( unless you have more info)., whether it is the adds causing the problem.

Same here. Have to use Duck Duck Go to use MN now.

Mine is on an iPad. I can usually read about 4 maybe 5 posts then it just goes white no text. No posts. No adverts. Nothing. Then I give up. I have no idea how long threads are… I can’t read them.

I think I have to agree and why all these ridiculous responses from them to screen record when they could see exactly what’s happening on their own mobiles/devices.

That bloody advert at the top of the screen that as a matter of course now needs constant closing… the site reminds me of the early 2000s, clunky and unusable.

It's just occurred to me that MN isn't rushing to solve this issue because they know it's the adverts and they want us ti subscribe to the "no adverts" option .

I've come on here to see if it was just me. Chrome, on laptop, get "page unresponsive" pop up. Yesterday, any and all threads.

This.

Also, my phone is running really hot and the battery haemorrhages power at a rate of knots since we’ve had those video ads at the top of the screen. I’m afraid to say this means I have used MN A LOT less because I can’t afford to let my battery drain so fast. I don’t even use it for 30 minutes a day now when a few weeks ago it was at least 2+ hours a day.

I can help. It happens ALL.THE.TIME. as usual, it's on the iPad where the problems are. As always. No change there.

Still, i only find myself back on here out loud habit and it sends be away again.

Good description wee donkey.
I wonder why it can't be fixed.

I've come to Site Stuff to check if it was just me, but clearly not. Several threads, blank white pages, page freezing, won't refresh, have to come out altogether. Chrome on Android phone.

Still an issue on my. Android phone.
Seems to be worse in the evening.

Same issues here although doesn’t seem related to adverts. iPad safari latest version. Desk top. I select a thread & blank white page. Sometimes it will spring into life after 30 seconds or so. I’m trying the app but I hate the app. The site is becoming unusable again

@JoMumsnet it could be any ad. As irritating as the constantly moving ones are (especially the little video pop up thingy that appears randomly in the bottom left of my screen) I actually manage to ignore them a lot of the time and so the ad content doesn't register with me.

MN is now practically unusable on my iPhone. I stopped using the App because it was so clunky, but now it’s useless on Chrome as well. I can’t be using different search engines for different sites. The ads freeze everything after about 30 seconds. Hopeless. Am having to find other entertainment now.

It could be any advert for me. I tried a couple of days ago and it was the same with the freezing so I gave up and came back to the app
