Site continually crashing and reloading

I started using it after they put the mobile phone ad on the app flashing all over the place and making it impossible to use. Never had any messages.

Also having lots of crashes and reloads on an android.

Never had this.
You download it on laptop and phone, and open the app or browser. It is like firefox, safari , explorer, chrome, vivaldi, …. the list is endless. It is a browser. You don’t use it for 5 min by visiting a website. You install it, and open it to use a specific site like MN or as your default browser.
It is great for airlines. So rates won’t change as quickly.

Ah, I see - but it still brought up endless "please delete" and then blockage messages during the brief period I used it, and it must have been that as I don't have any adblockers and I'd never had them until then?

Am I right in thinking it doesn't result in these any more then?

It is not an ad blocker @Puzzledandpissedoff , it is a private browser. There are no messages, no ads, no limitations. Try it.

Same for me last night first time it’s happened to me on the phone.

Just download DuckDuckGo and use it for Mumsnet. Problems solved and you can experience it like it was in 2006

I thought that, if this was used, you get several messages about takiing it off and then it locks the page,@ILoveDuckDuckGo? Or has that changed?

At least that's what happened when I once tried it, against my better judgement admittedly as I appreciate MN needs the ad revenue

But surely not if it's like this and trashes the site ...

Android device and since last night keeps crashing and getting reload messages s

That is so intrusive.

I've resisted ad blockers till now, as I've been happy for MN to have the ad revenue rather than me pay a subscription. But given the length of time we've been left suffering this, and that level of intrusion on what should be my private activities, I'm going to give it a go.

Ain't that the truth!

I see they're not so bothered that users have suffered this abomination for weeks and weeks without resolution that they've switched off the ads until they can guarantee a reasonable user experience.....

Just opened a thread on the phone and the app duckDuckGo blocked 19 companies who were trying to access my data to then compete with each other to offer me ads.
The site is slow because you are not alone when browsing it. External companies are going through your past searches or sites you have access to tailor ads.

The last few days it’s been even worse than usual, the constant fuckwittery with the loading & freezing it’s driving me up the wall oh & the battery draining is even more prevalent.

Still having to load pages five times to be able to scroll them.

😂

Unbelievable bad today. Still the world is back to normal tomorrow so mumsnet can go back to ignoring us in the normal way rather than the special Christmas way.

No idea what Mumsnet has tweaked these past four days but the reloading nonsense is out of control. Add to that if I dare leave a tab to find a link to copy for a poster (-ie a link to Women's aid website) my entire draft post has been wiped out and I have to retype it. I'm getting to the point where I won't be posting and yet again it's the ones who are vulnerable or needing help the most who are going to be impacted the worst. Shame on MN HQ 😠

Every so often this pops up with notifications and I can’t believe 7 weeks after it’s still posted MN ever pretended they were investigating it. What a waste of time

Yes to phone getting hot.

I've basically given up on using MN on my phone as it doesn't load, I then have to close safari and re-open it, then it works for maybe a couple of links if at all, then it just stops loading again and I have to close safari.

Even if I then try to open a different website on the same tab that I had MN open on, that website doesn't load because MN is still throttling that tab.

The other night I tried to look at MN on my phone because my iPad wasn't to hand, and I got this message which I've never seen before and I had to turn my phone off. Like, what the actual fuck. @BeckyAMumsnet ?

And why is this issue always affecting my phone now? MN never works anymore., it's not sporadic, or glitchy, it is literally broken.

Shocking!! And I believe it

I was so sick of it I paid for premium and as if by magic it stopped, it also stopped my phone getting red hot, and now my battery lasts twice as long. I’m also not getting tracked by a million websites!

MN know exactly what the issue is, they just don’t want to fix it.

It is the trackers. Download DuckDuckGo and use it for MN. All the issues are gone. The website is fast, no freezing, overheating, battery draining, no ads of any type. MN as it was back in the old days.
There are way too many trackers. At any given time, there are more than 15 companies competing to show you an ad.

For weeks now, I have the site freezing/reloading/crashing-ipad on chrome. It wound let me scroll down long threads, just keeps re-loading and going back to the first post. Anything over 100 or so posts is pointless trying to access them. So frustrating.

DuckDuckGo doesn’t make any difference for me.

‘Narrowed down’ my arse, of course it’s the ridiculous video ad. It’s always the ads, I had a similar long running thread a few years back about something similar and many mumsnet made all the right soothing sounds while doing bugger all to fix the issue.

I’m on Chrome on an iPhone and the constant reloading is driving me nuts.

So far, it’s been fine. I used to have the Adblock thing turned on and used Safari fine, then the messages started from MN about having to turn my Adblocker off if I wanted to continue using MN so I turned it off. I thought DuckDuckGo was just a different browser, rather than an ad blocker?
