mumsnet keeps freezing

Is anyone else having this problem.

For the past 3 days when I go to mumsnet and for instance start by looking at notifications, everything is fine.

Then when I see that a thread has quite few new posts so i think I will go and have a look, links are not longer clickable, and then I get a message saying web site is slowing down my browser.

This is not happening on any other web site I visit.

Is anyone else having this problem.

Mines been freezing for days now - it’s really bloody annoying

Skippingads · 15/03/2026 19:47

Yep. Been going on for a long time now but they don’t seem to want to fix it.

Yes, happening to me - Safari desktop.

Is posting on Site Stuff the same as reporting, or is there a reporting process?

I think 3 days is quite a long time, but then if not reported they wont know.

Yes, same here. Very annoying. Only Mumsnet.

Thanks.

I should have added that I am using Firefox.

So not just me.

(Added to which it has just frozen while I was trying to start of new thread and the totally pointless AI title generator went into panic mode. But I fought back and got the title I wanted posted.)

Anyhow, it is making using mumsnet quite difficult and really irritating!

Yes

Gribouille · 15/03/2026 19:36

Yes, same here.

I have to keep closing down the Safari app as it slows down or crashes the whole lot, not just MN

Yes, I am. It's repeatedly crashing the Safari browser.
