The site has been having difficulties loading, for me, for days, but tonight it went down for hours… Cloudflare said “Internal Server Error”, but even earlier in the day I was getting 500 Errors…
NNN seemed to go down as well…
Timing is super, super suss.
Or was that on my end?? Seems unlikely, given both my phone AND both computer browsers I use couldn’t load it, and had the same error…
It was all of the site. Probably just because the admins changed something before Christmas and didn't check if it broke everything.
MGTOW was first to go and C said they did something to fix it, but a few hours later everything went.
We've had three outages in the past day, (two being partial) all of them are unrelated to eachother.
One of them was because of a change that we made. Any community which had not updated its settings in the past month or so was unable to accept new posts.
The main outage was due to a network issue which was not in our control.
You should drop the new rollout, its slower in every way... what are the benefits of using more code to run the site??
Client side rendering is a big one. That's possibly why the site seems slower, although it's not a complaint which we have heard a lot.
Rendering the site on the client side (consuming the API) rather than serving up the complete HTML for every pageload is way better for us.
There's really a million different benefits to the newer stack.
Is the slowness that you're referring to when browsing on a desktop device or mobile? I do agree that the site is slow on mobile, but we have our mobile site for that.
