Is anyone else finding MN unusably slow recently?

It’s taking forever to load the adverts on my iPhone. Is it just me? I keep having to give up because it’s just hanging for too long.

It seems fine on my iPhone. Is it the same whether you’re on WiFi/data?

I’m on WIFI. It’s definitely the adverts - I’m not against adverts btw - but there is a blank box with ‘advertisement’ in it for ages and then when it finally loads it frees up. I wonder if my phone is ok. 🤷‍♀️

I've been having problems for a few weeks now with Mumsnet freezing my phone or just big white pages taking ages to load. It's really annoying.
There's a big thread on Site Stuff about it. A lot of posters are having problems.

It’s become unusable on my iPad but on my phone 🤷‍♀️

*ok on my phone

ah - didn’t realise there was a thread about it - should have looked. It got on my nerves and I just fired it off! Poor etiquette 🙂

YES it’s been a nightmare lately, glad it’s not just me. Hopefully they will look into it properly because it’s putting me off

Oh, I hope that didn't sound like a dig. I just said about the other thread so that you know it's a big problem and not just your phone.

Yes. I'm on an android phone and about half the time I give up trying to look at Mumsnet because it takes forever to open.

Yes.

And my attempts to scroll past the massive adverts means sometimes I click ON the bloody adverts! And I've never yet seen an advert on MN that interests me in any way.

Yep, I’m one - For info I run an iPad using Safari and every couple of weeks or so MN begin to slow down (adverts) and eventually becomes unreadable.

Usual fix that works for me is deleting all browsing history.
