It seems to be sporadic. I wanted to post a thread this morning, and gave up and went and did some errands. I was able to easily post the thread when I returned.

But for most of yesterday, FR was slower than Mitch McConnell advancing a conservative agenda.

It's as bad as I've seen in a long time.

Have problems on and off. As one FReeper put it “Slow Function Junction”. Some days it works, some days it’s like a Sid and Marty Krofft puppet..it barely moves!

I can just imagine what it is like for some of the very rural users on dial up. And there are more of these rural dial up conservatives than one would think.

As slow as it gets on high speed...It would indeed be completely unusable on dial up.

>>Consider running on AWS or Azure.<<

Changing the color of the number doesn’t make the runner run any faster.

Thanks very much for the advice.
Just went over to another browser, still had no luck.
When I came back a moment ago, FR loaded properly and even showed the helpful sidebar.
Love FR and appreciate all the helpful hints.
Thanks again.

Other web pages not associated with FR are also slow for me.

It used to be wonderful, and now it isn’t. It’s bad, period. After all the times it has broken, and after all the money asked for and given, it should be bullet proof by now.

But don't forget to donate to the freepathon

We have to be the last site left on the planet that doesn't have ads. Why not I ask, are we not Capitalists? Daily Kos (shudder) has ads. If this site loaded faster than ad filled sites, FR might have a case for relying solely on donations. Look at how fast Instapundit loads, for instance.

I find myself on the FR facebook page more than I do here.

It is not a herd of turtles. Nor is it a gaggle or a brace.

A group of turtles is a bale, nest, turn, or dole.

I wouldn’t care if they bothered to update us, at least on Facebook.
