All day today, Meh has either been very very slow to load or has not loaded at all. I’m starting to worry I’ll lose my button streak for reasons outside of my control!
Navigating inside the forum is hard now too - getting from one topic to another takes forrrrrever. Is it all the big AI generated images bogging things down?
@Lynnerizer I did the same! I have had things slow down with my phone since I installed iOS 18.5, so I thought this was connected. I’m relieved that I’m not alone with this!
@heartny@Kyeh
Isn’t it crazy how much it affects us when our phones mess up. I always remember the first thing to do is power off and reboot, then go down the list from there. It’s like the checklist of CPR for our phones. 🛟 Lol
Spent the day yesterday trying to recover a hard drive from a desktop the motherboard failed on. Was intermittently on and off the site as well. I also noticed that it was slow as molasses. Seems to be doing well today though. File that under “s*** happens”, I guess.
First the site was down at midnight… and then my computer started beeping and my roomba started beeping back- and then it tried to kill me. I think this is the start of something sinister.
@fjp999 So maybe someone at Meh quietly found and fixed the problem?! I noticed it being faster too sometime late last night.
Thanks, mysterious IT person …
The issue I’ve had for several days now is if I try during the first hour of a “New Meh-day” it won’t load. When I try the next morning it loads right up.
It seem the forum shenanigans might be back, at least for me over the last couple of days. Sometimes it hangs for 10 to 15 seconds when navigating between topics and the main page.
@Cerridwyn And just like that it seems to be back to normal. Guess someone found the can of WD40 and sprayed it into the hard drive to loosen up the heads and bearings.
Thank you for confirming it is not my imagination this time.
@yakkoTDI And to top it off my interwebz provider started doing maintenance right after posting this.
@yakkoTDI eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeexactly
oh my what did my keyboard do there, LOL
I knew it wasn’t me because no other site does it. but it has been going on ever since the ‘outage’ the other night
I BRIEFLY saw the spinning disco ball and thought there was a Mehrathon…



Then the page dumped

I thought it was just me!
I spent 30 minutes troubleshooting my phone and the connection. Even gave myself a headache in the process!

@Lynnerizer I did the same! I have had things slow down with my phone since I installed iOS 18.5, so I thought this was connected. I’m relieved that I’m not alone with this!
@Kyeh @Lynnerizer I thought it was my phone too. I kept putting it in airplane mode to reset the connection, which usually helps. Not this time.

@OnionSoup
Did the Awesome Meh AI Robot nefarious plan to “kill all the humans, pass control if the accounts to Cats” somehow fail?
Did Cats subvert the plan at the last moment because Cats like having humans around to annoy?
POPSOCKETS! SPA KITS! POLLY POCKETS! AWESOME!
@f00l @OnionSoup It wasn’t Cats; it was “@DrunkCat”, the “AI” bot.
Much faster just now! It has been slow for maybe a week, for me.

@Kyeh Yes, big thanks to the mystery IT person.
