I admit, the Kindle Device is not the best in the world but I have used one for years to read the BoW website. I don’t have money for a real tablet. Over the last month + this site has become very slow. Much slower than I remember in the past.

On my PC there also seems to be a lag but not enough to complain about.

I am in the East Coast of the USA so not sure if this may be Cloudflare issue a CDN issue or some new script you have for checking web stats but the entire site is very slow for me. My ISP is 300mb/s down and 20mbs up. There no other hobby related sites where I have this issue be it in the USA, CAN or EU. I can hit content in AUS faster than BoW.

This is not just a particular page, the entire site including login and posting to articles. I have even seen timeouts with login and posting.

I am willing to accept it could be a Kindle issue, but I am not seeing it anywhere else but this website.

Not sure anything could be done but thought I would report it anyway.

It’s not you. It’s OTT. The site is very *very* slow for some weeks now. Using a kindle doesn’t make it better in any way shape or form but it’s not the cause.

In it’s current form OTT has a big performance issue. All we can do is hope that someone in charge pokes someone “in the tech know” to make it better. :S

Glad it’s not just my PC making it slow to load.

I often open another browser tab while this website loads as it can take a very long time.

The site is incredible slow again today. Is there anyone looking at this or is Wayland about to pull the plug?

Seems to vary by time of day @turbocooler so I would hold off saying fixed… could just be low traffic.
