Any problems on SD right now?

Question

Some people are having problems right now on SD.

I'm not but is anyone else having problems?

Nope. - rac1, Jun 16, 2016

No problem with mine amigo. - Nickelbackfan1, Jun 16, 2016

I use Chrome and I'm not having any problems. Hope I don't either. - rac1, Jul 21, 2016

Answer 1

I just got a dialog box claiming that my ad blocker was interfering with the site's functionality and instructing me to disable it. I suspect that's coming from an advertiser rather than from the site administrators, but I could be wrong. Anyone have the insider scoop on that? I don't intend to disable my ad blocker on the say-so of a dialog box.

I get that too, I ignore it. - rac1, Jul 19, 2016

Answer 2

It's been very, very slow using Chrome. I've just downloaded Firefox, so I will see if that is any better.

Yesterday, it wouldn't let me use it as it said I was using an adblocker (I wasn't), but that cured today.

It's been almost unusable, waiting a minute just to see the cursor appear.

Answer 3

Yes guys Safari just froze on me so I had to download Firefox which is working OK ,thanks .

iOS or PC? - Nickelbackfan1, Jun 16, 2016

Apple ipad mate. - ray76, Jun 16, 2016

My Ipad is running slow on the site and froze a little but I just thought it was mine. - Nickelbackfan1, Jun 16, 2016

Apple MacBook/Firefox - really slow and kind of jerky - has been bad for about a week. A bit better when using Safari. Brand new laptop and other internet sites working fine, just SD is problematic, and very irritating - margarita1943, Jun 16, 2016

And it posts replies twice!!! - margarita1943, Jun 16, 2016

Margarita, I have been using safari for 6 years no probs but it has just disapeared, so I am left with firefox. - ray76, Jun 17, 2016

Today for me this site is almost unusable. Very frustrating! - margarita1943, Jun 18, 2016

Answer 4

I use Chrome. Firefox always gives me problems but only with SD. When Chrome freezes. I just exit the site and when I come back, it's OK. Yesterday it was very slow.

When Firefox freezes, to exit the site I have to hit the "control/alt/delete (AKA the Vulcan pinch) to get the Program Manager and get out that way.

I think it's due to all the ads coming on and taking up bandwidth.

I am experiencing exactly the same problem with Firefox, Dani and I frequently have to use Ctl alt and delete tô bring up task manager so that I can delete any open Firefox pages using Spanish Dict. :) - FELIZ77, Jul 18, 2016

Very frustrating as it wastes do much time and I prefer Firefox to the other browsers I am not sure why there should be a conflict at all ! - FELIZ77, Jul 18, 2016

I agree. - rac1, Jul 19, 2016

Answer 5

Whatever I click on the page goes blank then comes back slowly .

Answer 6

hmmm Ironically, we live in the country and have a very slow connection but SD is never an issue; I use firefox.

Answer 7

SD has been really jumpy, and very slow lately. Also the page goes blank every couple minutes and won't come back.

Maybe you just need to re-boot. - rac1, Jul 21, 2016

I tried logging out and shutting my Ipad down, but I'm still having problems. - Nickelbackfan1, Jul 21, 2016

I tried that but to no avail. - ray76, Jul 22, 2016

Feedback is still not working either. - Nickelbackfan1, Jul 22, 2016

Answer 8

I am still having problems , I cannot get "feedback" to open so cannot complain.

SD is jumping around and so slow , I shall try firefox

Answer 9

Oh oh ! Same trouble now on firefox, have had to go back to safari. SD is

not behaving itself for me anymore ,I have now sent feedback.

Mine is doing the same super jumpy and lagging like mad. - Nickelbackfan1, Jul 21, 2016

I still can't open feedback. - Daniela2041, Jul 21, 2016

Ray, you did report all of this to SD, right? - rac1, Jul 21, 2016

Answer 10

I'm on Chrome on my PC and it's been working fine, although just now I can't seem to post. There may end up being 10 posts by me tomorrow in Picture of the Day.

Esto es un R.D.T.I. (roedor de tamaño inusual).

This is an R.O.U.S. (rodent of unusual size).

Ok, that just posted here, so maybe it's that thread? - Findy, Jul 21, 2016

Signed out. Tried again. Still can't post there. I'll try again tomorrow. - Findy, Jul 21, 2016

I have gone back to safari and it is all OK now . I managed to get feedback working so now it may be OK. - ray76, Jul 21, 2016

Answer 11

I have just changed over to " firefox" and it appears to be OK.

But still cannot open "feedback.

I cant open feedback either and it's really slow. - Daniela2041, Jul 20, 2016

I can't vote either. - Daniela2041, Jul 20, 2016
