[Help] NSC slow?

[Sheebo]

Seems I wasn’t the only one - had visions of nobody having the same issue!

Yep, been playing up for the last couple of days. Freezing and not scrolling.

That happened to me once today but other than that it’s been absolutely fine.

wobbly line advert a right pain, always gets in the way of replying to a post

Yes that’s what I should have said, computer fine but iPhone (Chrome), really playing up for the last couple of days.

It’s taken me a while to be able to type this message as it keeps freezing!

Yep. Me too.

 

[BBassic]

I've had freezes and slowness too on mobile, Android with Firefox browser.

 

[Jahooli]

Has stopped working for me using safari, annoyingly slow with chrome on my iPad.
Most times it’s easier and quicker to close the tab and open a new one.
Manifests as a delay between keypad and display typing this.
Clunky on android mobile but always has been in my experience.
Fine on pc ,

Really starting to get annoying now, freezes for ages, you click on a thread, it hangs for ages, then opens the wrong one. Or the bloody advert.

Samsung S22.

You're having visions now

Yep agreed -
shall we all strike?

On my iOS the slowness appears to be linked to a pop-up ad at the bottom that has a wavy line top to it and an X to get rid.

Very slow on my iPad, same happens as described in post #27.
Yeh let’s wait for the advert at the bottom to load before I can attempt to read a thread.
When the wavy line ad at the bottom first appeared it was annoying but the thread pages seemed to still load ok, but the last week everything has been really slow.

Exactly the same with my iPad using Chrome for the past week.

Yep happens to me too, I thought it was just a matter of my mobile browser (Internet Samsung) because on PC it works fine. It's not too bad, just have to wait a bit more for the page to load.

 

[Happy Exile]

Same for me on Android phone and tablet but fine on Windows laptop. It's not just NSC though it's most sites with Reddit particularly bad - can be 15 seconds between clicking a link and it opening. Unfortunately we're with Virgin so I've assumed it's them.

Board's just about unuseable this morning

@Bozza is it just too rich in features now (e.g loading tweets) to support the number of users? Have you tried turning some of them off? The features, that is, not the users...

 

[BLOCK F]

It’s in a right pickle on my iPad today. Same yesterday.

 

[jcdenton08]

I’ve been having this problem on Safari (iPhone) for a few days now, where I’m typing a reply and suddenly the page will refresh by itself and I’ve lost what I was typing. It’s a bit irritating.

 

[LamieRobertson]

No issues at all today

 

[Bozza]

Is anyone who is experiencing "slowness" getting it on a laptop/desktop device, or is only on phones/tablets?

Not had any issues with laptop / desktop but is an issue on iPad using Chrome and has been for a couple of weeks. Definitely linked to the adverts but not all of the them.

If an advert is slow to load, it stops you doing anything until the ad has loaded - sometimes up to 10 seconds. After that it seems to have some buffering which would explain the comments about opening different threads and losing typing.
