Can you confirm if a DDoS attack is happening right now? Clearnet site is unusually slow and fails to load.
Filesystem might also have trouble as I cannot reliably upload over TOR.

Clearnet site loads very slippery now and uploads work each time, thanks!

This doesn't happen with regular text.

Minor hiccup with DMs. When adding recipients, the very convenient dropdown list of usernames does not appear for me, except for users l0s3r and NickAlgiz. When I manually typed in usernames, (@UnclePanda and mod @Trombonista) it was unable to send because the users could not be found.

I was able to DM NickAlgiz and L0s3r.

Figured it out. Turns out I am just retarded.
 
Has anyone else noticed KiwiFlare taking a hell of a lot longer as of the past couple of days? Is Null doing some work on it or is it just my machine/browser?

I think it's your machine, I have noticed different times with different machines, my Pixel will do it in seconds, my computer does it almost instantly, and my Nokia 5.3 takes a minute or two.

The same machine loaded just fine a couple of days ago, so maybe there are other factors. To clarify, this isn't frequent browsing through pages, this is only the first load after the machine hasn't accessed the KiwiFarms for a day or more.

Kiwiflare gets more strict when a DDoS happens. If you're using the same IP address that a few others are using (IE VPN) it may pick that up as suspicious and challenge you.

Nah, same home IP. I do have my own reserved IP block. I don't know if there's been a persistent DDoS over the past 4-5 days. Def possible though.
 
While looking at the homepage, I noticed that the progress bar (class: "hb-300-progress-stripe") is moving but at a stepped pace. This is throwing me off and diverting my entire focus onto the progress bar due to the sudden movements it makes. It goes faster the more full the bar is. This would be better if the bar was more smooth and constant.

Here is a video of me messing around with the size of the bar.



Edit: I also noticed the div is in-front of the text, altering with the text's white color.

using the numkeys (not the numpad) still redirects to different parts of the site on the navbar even if the browser window is not immediately in focus (pressing 1 redirect to the homepage, 2 goes to forums, 3 goes to chat, etc.). since i frequently use win/super + numkeys to open up different windows this gets very annoying very quickly.
ungoogled chromium
 
The entire formatting bar has become unresponsive for me on every page after attempting to embed an image.

If I ctrl+z the undo button still lights up, if I ctrl+b or ctrl+i the buttons toggle accordingly, the save icon turns green, but I can't click anything, the buttons do nothing.

Edit: it fixed itself and I cannot recreate the problem 🤷🏾‍♂️

I can't reproduce your problem but I recently found the code responsible. If you don't use this feature, you can disable it (or even remap them) with a userscript as the page loads like this:
JavaScript: 
// ==UserScript==
// @name         unregister xenforo keybinds
// @match        https://kiwifarms.st/*
// ==/UserScript==
(function() {
    document.querySelectorAll("[data-xf-key]").forEach(el => el.removeAttribute("data-xf-key"));
})();

Suggestion for the redesign since modding Xenforo seems to suck ass: can we keep the Your News Feed/followed users tab but not stickers in it or at least have the option to hide them?

I tried followed some cool posters but its nothing but their sticker spam...
