Ask HN: Is Hacker News slow for anyone else?
Yes. Sorry. Working on it. One of these years we'll get better.
Some very busy front page discussions. That tends to slow things down until dang steps in and lowers the number of comments per page. Log out (or use private mode) if you just want to read it and it'll hit the cache and be much faster.
For me HN is the fastest website I know. When I want to test my Internet connection I open HN because if the connection available but it is really bad (there are so in Ukraine nowadays) then HN is that kind of website which has some chances to be loaded.
Yes. I just got this when trying to submit a comment.
Hacker News We're having some trouble serving your request. Sorry!
The API had a sub-minute outage a few hours ago, otherwise nothing that shows up on uptime monitoring: https://hackernews.onlineornot.com/
Only seems to be slow when I'm logged in...
Seems all good now but was slow earlier yes..
Yeah, slow over the last hour or so. I thought it was a problem on my end, but it seems not.
I wandered off to check my internet/DNS. It is indeed very slow as of now.
Yes, it's been taking 10-11 seconds each request for me.
Got faster a few minutes after I showed up. You’re welcome?
Confirm!
Yes.
