Major connection issues

It started on the weekend. Two devices won’t connect or drop out and my desktop takes forever to connect. It was very difficult to reach this point and I had to reload pages several times. Typing this is glitchy too.

If you folks don’t hear from me anymore-- you will know why.

The site appeared down the whole weekend. Last week I lost two posts as I was typing them. Something went Bloop and they just disappeared. The pop-up ads ate them.

Even this morning was slow,just getting back up around now.

Page load time is over 11 seconds. I saw lot’s of timeouts over the weekend. No doubt some of the downstream ad networks are causing issues - finescale content represents less that 1/4 of whats being requested/rendered.

Ditto Saturday and Sunday. Just got a Timeout error.

Had to cull the url down to “finescale dot com” to get here.

It’s way snappier now. Way better than it was before the weekend actually. [Y]
