Feedback Technical Grievances

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.

And thank you again for telling me why it's not allowed. That said, why not add m4a to the list of formats embedded as <audio>, together with ogg and mp3?

Do they? If I have to upload an mp3 I normally just put it in a mp4 container anyway because again, some browsers (phones, if I recall correctly) don't like to play them for some reason. Literally the same audio track copied into a mp4 container instead works just fine... I think it's actually just embedding the file as a <video> and that's why it doesn't work, for the same reason that m4a doesn't.

That being said, I mean, it's probably doable if you don't mind the attachment being broken for some people.

Site is running like dogshit thanks to the combined happenings of Chris Chan bonding out after more than a year and the pooner shooter (but it is still running which is impressive), but wtf is this?

if the site is slow and can't load the little popup or just apply, you get that screen which is a separate page. You can trigger it by rightclicking Like and "open in new tab" - https://kiwifarms.net/posts/15751698/react?reaction_id=1

To add to what the previous user said:

You get this if a particular Javascript didn't load. The server could have thrown a 40x or 50x error when the browser requested that particular resource file, or it could've simply been loading so slowly that you clicked the reaction before the script that handles it had finished loading.

In that case, the hyperlink's default action is to send you to that page, as a "fall back" in case Javascript is disabled/not working.

I'm just getting an intermittent spinning loading wheel in firefox on some theads (like this one, for awhile) but not others, in addition to general slowness. Same issue?

Since nobody explained why it's asking for confirmation yet: It's so that I can't trick you into stickering posts by posting misleading links.

Every forum action triggers the Kiwiflare page. Almost impossible to do anything other than lurk. Posting requires refreshing many times. Drafts don't save correctly. No reactions work.

I call this a kiwiflare flareup.. Just give it 3-5 minutes and it should clear up. It seems like the trigger is not for one attempt but all/any over a certain amount of time or something.
 
I really really really really do not understand how you guys are breaking the ddos page.

Close all your site tabs. Refresh. Go through the captcha. Now click around. The only thing I can think of is that if you have multiple tabs it might re-assign you an old session token repeatedly as long as the site is up, but that's your browser because shit, it shouldn't work like that.

would it make sense to show the session ID on the retarding page? (maybe it's already there)
 
Seems like the site's slower than usual with Chris and the shooting. Ran into an unexpected database error issue at one point, but it seems like we're either getting curious onlookers or more DDoS:

Tried logging in on another network only to get this site being flagged for "illegal activities" by OpenDNS. Currently on a VPN.
