ST community site often very slow / unusable

[debugging]

The ST community site is often extremely slow, even time outs occur . You access a few pages fine and then it takes a minute or more , time out or error occur.

Often trying to Edit a port, it often fails with an error message. Accessing other website is no problem at all.

Hello @debugging , 

Thanks for reporting this and I am sorry you are facing those issues.

Can you share more about the performance issues you experience? This would help to further investigate:

• When this behavior started for you?
• If possible, share the URLs where it occurred;
• Additional screenshot of errors, if there are others than you shared. 
  
  Just so you know, the timeout window is set for 200 minutes of inactivity, so I do not think it is the case here. 
  
  Thanks a lot, 
  Lina

Can't say I've noticed any worse behaviour in recent days.

If posts are moved or edited whilst you're doing something or responding, the original post / context can change, and at that point actions cannot be completed.

Some times if you past in content you can get HTML errors and warnings, but those can usually be cleared by retrying or removing formatting/style.

Noting your location and ISP might be helpful to isolate more localized issues. The browser and extensions can also play a role.

The more specifics you can provide the more likely ST is to look at and resolve them.

Nailed the issues down. This unresponsiveness occurs when selecting "Edit Reply" in a post. Somehow the ST site remembers something for the session. A cookie or something. After closing the browser and login the site response normally again. Firefox Ubuntu 23.10 and 24.04. it is not 100% reproducable.
