Is Fluther really slow today?

Asked by _zen_ (7857points) April 29th, 2011

Or is it just my pc. Chat especially – but also just reading and posting…

Maybe, my internet connections have been messed up for the past several days and I was out of town for a couple of day and the motel wi-fi seemed kind of slow, maybe it wasn’t the wi-fi but fluther that had the problem.

It’s been VERY slow for the past few days.

Slow as in page-loading speed? I haven’t noticed a problem with that. I’ve been getting a weird lag in my typing for the last few days, but it’s happening everywhere, so I assumed that was a Firefox issue.

It’s been running adequately fast for me.

I’m using about 60% of my available RAM and I’m using Firefox 4.0.
4.0.1 is available but I haven’t updated yet.

Not in speed, it just seems as though people are dragging lately.

augustlan's avatar

We do seem to be in a bit of a lull. Springtime/final exams, maybe?

@augustlan It doesn’t stop me. ;) Hehe

Perhaps you’re just too fast.

It seems OK now, but it is now 8 hours after your question was asked. People were probably sleeping when you asked it.

Well it’s now 10 hours after the OP question was asked and it’s still quiet on Fluther. I would venture to say everyone is busy doing whatever….guess I’ll get busy too! Let’s all meet back here in say 5–6 hours and see what’s going on. Have a wonderful day to all.:^)

Quiet on Fluther plus my internet connection seems very wonky. Time to go read a book!

I denno, I just got up. But it was slow as heck yesterday, prolly more or less at the time you asked this yeah, so I mostly just played around on stumbleupon and draw my thing. Thanks, Vunessuh! :D

Yes, a little dry. No offense to those who have tried, what has been posted has been Ok. Besides the tornadoes ruining crap, it’s been nice outside and I’ve been out whenever possible. No more winter prison – work, home, work, home. Summer is just about here. Once that wears off, or it gets far too hot out, it should pick up right ?

I think @augustlan is right. Time of year. April and May are busy months with those in school and those that like the outdoors and gardening. (Me personally, been too depressed to really care today. A family friend passed away over the night. I’m hoping Fluther will kind of help me forget about it right now.)

@jonsblond I’m sorry to hear that, blondie. {hugs}

chyna's avatar

@jonsblond I’m very sorry to hear of a friend of yours passing. Much love to you.

Lurve ya guys.

jonsblond's avatar

_zen_'s avatar

It’s tomorrow here – would you like me to tell you your future?

jonsblond's avatar
