INGO Slow loading recently?

[Drewski]

I’ve noticed a substantial slowdown in INGO pages loading over the last few days, particularly threads with pictures. It’s much slower than maybe a week or two ago. I’m talking dialup speed reactions. It’s unlikely to be on my end; my wired connection is 700Mbps and wifi devices are 400+. I don’t see this with any other site. Anyone else seeing this?

Not VPN, adblocker, “clear your cache”, etc., slowdowns.

Those 30 second long gifs do give the server a beating.

30 second long gifs, ok

I've had them take several minutes to load and I'm on fiber optic.

I've noticed pictures are taking way longer to load than normal

Russian hackers I hear have slowed down INGO because freedom lives here.
well then again maybe the bandwidth needs an adjustment

Text loads fine, it's the image threads that are taking the hit.

Maybe a Russian cyberattack

They hate our meme freedom.

Mines has been so slow ive said eff it and found something else to do but 70% of the time its a bearable 5-10 seconds to load anything here. That’s just how XenForo forums are, I said that when they announced the switch.

Super slow.... I am guessing they are throttling image loads. Xen is generally pretty quick as it is still runs on PHP, and we have seen them load faster.

yes, pics are taking a lot of time.

it's like being on dial up again

Id say 90% it all loads quickly (normal 1-2 seconds) other times not so much 15+ seconds)
Always using my phone. Don't see any reason for it when it takes longer

Same problem here and I'm on fiber.

Yep. Scared me. Xfinity has started doing bandwidth caps here. The first time it happened I was ready to scream at my teenagers for exceeding the data limit. Then I did a speedtest and it was fine.

But yeah, some of those load like dialup.

Slower here for me as well.

It isn't just ingo, it's significant chunks of the internet. I think it has something to do with geopolitics.

INGO is in a Russian data center?

More like tons of DDOS attacks going through networks from various hackers going after various targets, choking everything.
