I usually used DSF from my phone, so the new mobile interface is great for that. But yeah, once you get used to the new design, and once everyone is settled I reckon it could work pretty well. Thatās just my initial impression though
from a purely mechanical point of view, itās actually much easier to use than I first thought. takes a day to get used to everything, but once you get the jist of it, everything makes sense and is very intuitive. however, with the small avatars etc. itās also very unpersonal, which kinda sucks. hard. thatās what made dsf cool, innit. when I look at the names of the posters, I still know who Iām dealing with. but somebody new to this place will be fucking lost forerver. everybody is reduced to a couple 12pts letters instead of being alive.
It took me an hour to figure out most of the things, I love the new platform, good job. I think I still need some time but it seems very intuitive and the change was definitely a good step.
I think that we all experiencing this loading errors tonight and it has to do with too many concurrent connections (500+). Is it because of crawlers or a small DDOS attack, Iām not yet sure, but we will optimize our server for this kind of āhitā.
Was wondering about the possibility of DDOS attacks as the reason for the occasional fuckdiculous load time. Wish the wannabe hackers would go bother a Goa Trance board instead.
After some tweaking of server settings and introducing automatic IP ban services for hostile clients, there should be a noticeable change of speed in the page loading. Or do you still experiencing the same slowness?
If your phone is Android, then this can be the issue. In that case, I cannot do much. But on the other hand I own Android phone too and I didnāt notice slowness
