Pages taking an age to load - anyone else?

240 replies

PunishmentRoundupWithJoon · 05/06/2022 12:30

Is anyone else finding that some pages are taking an age to load? And a message keeps appearing, something like "page taking ages, do you want to wait?"

It's only happening with mumsnet, no other sites.

Awful. Same issues here, it’s almost unusable and I’ve been here 10 years.

Snoopsnoggysnog · 12/06/2022 23:49

Even that message took ages to type and post.
MNHQ you last commented on this on 8th June, what’s the update?

NoiceToight · 13/06/2022 07:09

The site has become basically unusable for me, it just won't load. The app loads quicker, sometimes, but I don't like the app - it doesn't refresh very often.

SpindleSheWrote · 13/06/2022 07:33

Unusable - yes.

Gave up last night. Actually every problem mentioned above is something that I have experienced.

Along with the massive glitches, and what I presume is increased DDOS activity, is an increase in non-genuine and bad-faith OPs and other posters on the site.

Snoopsnoggysnog · 13/06/2022 08:53

totally agree, the number of troll OPs is ridiculous.

And of course a lot of posters are now reluctant to report them, because of data protection concerns that still linger in parallel with the new platform having these huge technical and management issues.

This is true. I am usually a regular reporter, but I won’t do it since the recent data breach.

SwankyPants · 13/06/2022 15:21

Still taking ages to load, and I can't navigate. I can still scroll the post but I can't go to active or watching. Just nothing happens and I have to close the page and open another. I'm really put off being here. It's just too much like hard work to do anything

SoupDragon · 13/06/2022 21:38

And again...

SpindleSheWrote · 13/06/2022 21:51

This is absolutely ridiculous now. So slow. Unusable again.

SpindleSheWrote · 13/06/2022 21:54

Fuck's sake, this site's a shambles tonight. Again.

Igotjelly · 13/06/2022 21:55

Happening again. I keep getting a message saying checking my browser…. Checking it for what exactly? 😑

MNHQ very quiet on all this nonsense.

Sidge · 13/06/2022 21:55

Jeez it is beyond shit tonight.

Zampa · 13/06/2022 21:57

It's affected me around the same time tonight and last night. Assumed it was a DDOS attack last night but weird it was at 2125 both nights.

TaranThePigKeeper · 13/06/2022 21:58

Yup, same again for me when I came on to the site just now.

YewandOak · 13/06/2022 21:58

Having the same problem here. WIndows 11 and Chrome. Tried using Edge but same problem there. The app (android) isn't working either.

Starseeking · 13/06/2022 21:59

There’s something really wrong with this website, I can only get on with my browser, not the app, then it said it was checking the browser before letting me in?!?

Thethreecs · 13/06/2022 22:00

This is painful. Think I'll watch Netflix

Cantstopsneezing2022 · 13/06/2022 22:01

Yep it’s terrible. Taking ages to load, error messages, randomly refreshing.
I also thought it was my phone but everything else is working fine

TattiePants · 13/06/2022 22:01

I have no problems during the day but it’s always after 9pm (tonight at started at 9.20pm) where pages take an age to load, then I get a 504 message. It’s been going on for at least a week.

HobnobsChoice · 13/06/2022 22:02

I really hope you kept the receipt for the update MN as the site is almost unusable. 11 years habit broken in just a few weeks.

SunnyShiner · 13/06/2022 22:03

It’s shit. The app won’t load and the website is crap on a phone. The last update is going to kill this site off. It’s unusable.

Same for me, the site is unusable

IroningBoardz · 13/06/2022 22:05

Same again for me tonight.

OokSaidTheLibrarian · 13/06/2022 22:07

Same issues here, cloudflare errors, chrome on android
