Why is MN so slow?

I'm not moaning - honest!

But Mumsnet s very slow - all the time. There's definitely nothing wrong with my internet, I have 200MB download and all other sites are fine.

I just wonder why this is? Are you throttled?

Really slow for me too. About to give up and go browse around Digital Spy!

Maudlinmaud · 16/01/2017 23:02

Ah so it's not just me then.

SealSong · 16/01/2017 23:03

Terribly slow, barely loading.
Both on ipad/safari/desktop site
And on laptop / chrome / internet explorer / desktop site.

Can't be bothered to use MN if it's as slow as this

SealSong · 16/01/2017 23:04

Other websites are fine.

TwatteryFlowers · 16/01/2017 23:06

Mine is very slow as well and has been for a few weeks. It's not my internet because it's the same whether I'm in my home bb, phone 4g or on other people's/public bb. I'm using chrome browser on my Android. It's bloody annoying!

Ankleswingers · 16/01/2017 23:07

I'm back to check if it's any faster and if anything, it's worse.

I am offsky.

Can't be arsed tonight

AutoFillContact65 · 16/01/2017 23:10

I may have to go to sleep Sad

Or read a book or watch the TVShock The horror.

AutoFillContact65 · 16/01/2017 23:11

I saw those weird icons too a few days ago but they disappeared.

MiddleClassProblem · 16/01/2017 23:13

Mine have just reverted back now too! I've had them for a good hour this evening

ginghamstarfish · 16/01/2017 23:15

Yes very slow, sometimes freezes, due to add I suppose.

TooStressyForMyOwnGood · 16/01/2017 23:17

Super slow for me too. On iPhone.

Atticmatic · 16/01/2017 23:23

Me too. iPhone. Safari.

Going to sleep instead.

ilovesooty · 16/01/2017 23:25

Thought it was just me.

maddy68 · 16/01/2017 23:26

Painfully slow for me too to the point of me only using the site spasmodically whereas I used to use it all day at least im doing so,eyeing constructive with my days now
I'm using mainly apple products both the app and website bad also ie

All are very very slow compared to other sites

AutoFillContact65 · 16/01/2017 23:27

@MNtech what are you up to?

NoraDora · 16/01/2017 23:27

Slow here too.

Android using Google chrome

IvorHughJarrs · 16/01/2017 23:34

Slow for me too today (laptop, windows 10 and chrome) I have an adblocker on, don't know if that helps or hinders

I sometimes get those weird icons when the site is loading but not all there, they change to the normal one when it is complete

CockacidalManiac · 17/01/2017 00:13

I'm awaiting the 'we've been hacked' message

JaneJeffer · 17/01/2017 00:37

I've had to use the app since December because the site is not working. Mumsnet have done nothing about it. I don't like the app so I haven't been on here as much.

FookyNell · 17/01/2017 00:49

The last couple of days have been all about the waiting to load. Not good.

Chrome on W8.1 with AB+

EstelleRoberts · 17/01/2017 00:56

Slow for me too. Definitely not my end, as other sites that are usually slow are way faster than MN currently.

SoFedUpOfPeople · 17/01/2017 01:43

Just adding iPad safari slow too.
