If you want to test a SLOW-loading site, just try pulling up one of Sweet Sue's grow "tours"! 
Go make coffee, visit the facilities, etc.

Sweet Sue has posted more photos than the next two highest photo posters combined! LOL
It’s getting frustrating trying to compose and being bounced all over the place when I attempt to do anything in the compose box. I do hope this glitch gets worked out.
Thats the Issue Ive been seeing since the begging.....
Least Im NOT the only One. It has been terrible today and yesterday
Maybe @420 can enlighten us on changes that took place yesterday and Today that may have drastically effected this

Are these problems with touch screens? I'm having no issues on a keyboard, but have noticed what you describe on the iPhone or ipad.
I figured it was me touching a linked to something text by accident and it takes me there.

Does this, randomly freaks out and pics letters, tosses curser around , backwards, and makes it a challenge to post

The compose box jumps all over for me too. Often when I press the camera icon the menu slides out from the left. Or when I press the smilie button the search box appears. It only seems to happen when the top bar is hidden. Also sometimes when inserting photos the gallery popup box doesn’t scroll but the stuff behind the popup does. I can’t imagine how hard it would be to compose on a smaller phone.

I saw the cursor do about the same thing on a desktop computer just yesterday. It's almost like the text box script is scanning for something. I watched it carefully, and it looked random until I noticed the pattern it was using. From top left down to the bottom right.
It only happened once, and not for long.
I may be wrong, but the occurrence was strange.
I’m having some of those issues too. Was waiting to test if it was my phone, but it happened on my iPad yesterday as well - then in the last couple of days others have noted they’re getting issues too.
On on top of some of what’s been mentioned, I find I have to hit the panel buttons more than once for them to engage, the auto text feature sometimes stops working and gives me garbled options based on what I have mistyped, and since about 24hrs ago, auto capitalistation only functions intermittently. Also when deleting text, the function that usually switches to ‘word at a time’ after holding the delete button for a while (so you an go faster) - now switches to ‘letter at a time’. I’m running iPhone SE - all up to date, but it seems others are experiencing ‘buggy’ behaviour in the compose box so it doesn’t appear to be problems on particular devices.
I can say that sometimes it’s fine and then goes haywire for a bit - this can happen during one composing session - and is then ok again.
Rob, I’m there with that other list - got caught up in life outside 420 (go figure
)... coming today

The developers are running more scripts today to resolve more things, it might be slowing the servers down as a result. I've got half a dozen guys working on a plethora of issues, thank you for your patience everyone.
I'm going to complain....I came here, paid nothing, invaded your home, will complain about your furniture, the free food you gave me, and everything else that doesn't meet with my approval.
Just joking.... I can deal with a little slow loading. You guys are doing great!!!

Love the Top/Bottom page arrows in the bottom right corner.
Love the "Expand" feature when a person replies with a quote, it makes pages much easier to navigate and stops duplicate images from eating up a page.
I never used the mobile app, can't comment from that perspective.
I think the pages load faster than they did prior to the changes.
Still finding a few things, but overall, this change is an improvement IMHO.
Using Chrome, Edge and Safari, and all render the HTML well.
Peace

Yes they are.
My greatest respect and appreciation to the team behind the office doors. We can't even imagine...
Will we be seeing an end soon to the snail's pace of composing? On the plus side, it's forcing me to be more concise.

We lost the edit feature in private communications. Any reason for that?

We're still running scripts and fixing things, performance should be increased once these scripts are all done working their magic.
Editing pms were disabled, should have never been enabled. People could use them to send in false reports and cause trouble, nobody gives that access anywhere.

I’d wondered about that function in PMs. Thanks for fixing it.
