Is DU super slow for anyone else?

[liberalla]

taking forever for pages to load, etc...






Edit to add: Thank you all for the replies. I'm glad it's not just me, but hope it's resolved soon.

The iPad has issues anyway.

[2naSalit]

56. A few minutes ago I saw

one of your double posts. It's working fine now.

I got offline and did a maintenance sweep and threat scan and came up with no issues, came back and it was still doing it until a minute two after I saw this thread.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

28. Slow as mole asses

[dustyscamp]

29. Vile people out there are probably straining the servers that run this site in preparation for what

they plan to do this November. They already took the site down before in 2016 they'll probably want to do it again

[Polly Hennessey]

30. Yes.

[Sedona]

[Dem2]

[panader0]

And over 30 after I hit reply. What's up?

[mwooldri]

[EarthFirst]

44. Seems like things are moving along again... nt

[Yonnie3]

45. Yes. It's Saturday night and everybody is staying home

It could just be heavily loaded.

[sheshe2]

46. GD has not budged in an hour and a half.

I made an OP that has enough recs to be on the front page. It is stuck in latest.

Gah!

[sheshe2]

47. Fixed!

[Demsrule86]

48. Mine just got better don't know why

[iluvtennis]

51. Yes. I thought it was Safari on my Mac, so I tried Google Chrome and same thing. nt

[captain queeg]

52. It's pretty slow, been that way for days.

[jimfields33]

53. It was. I had to change from my house internet Comcast

To Verizon on the phone. Much better but of course I’m eating data.

[Raine]

55. Yes, I couldn't even get in at all

for 10-15 minutes.

[c-rational]

57. Yes it was earlier and I was also going to ask but went elsewhere. I came back to this post and

now all appears to be working fine. Reading all the responses made me feel better, but I wondered why...one of the last posts I read was about the dumpsters family loosing a court case and I started to wonder....

[Blue_true]

58. Yes. I was having a massive problem.

I could not have run a marathon, before a page opened, but a 50 meter dash was within reach, maybe I would have finally beaten the turtle that has been kicking my butt. Things are back to normal now.

[Baclava]

61. I think i broke it, oh wait, its back!

[DFW]

62. It definitely was here a few hours ago. I gave up

It's now after 7:00 PM here (we are 6 hours ahead of the East Coast of North America).

My wife just made an unbelievable Easter dinner. Norwegian skrei in a garlic-lemon-black pepper sauce with a few shrimps in lemon-garlic-olive oil sauce, grilled Wolbecker white asparagus in garlic and oilve oil, arrugula salad with pomegranate and balsamico, and for dessert, the neighbors brought over a huge portion of thick dark chocolate mousse. It was the warmest day of the year so far, and we ate outside, finishing just in time for it to cloud up and get cool.

I had better things to do than wait for DU to get back up to speed. Tatort with Thiel and Börne starts soon, so I won't be lingering too long now, either. I hope things are/will be back to normal soon!
