Is anyone else having vvveeeerrrrryyyyy slow loading of DU?

[Lulu KC]

I started noticing it yesterday. Everything else is very zippy, but DU is slow. I've cleared my caches and history, done my Malware Bytes, but no change.

If everyone's having it, I'll feel better. Not that I'm exactly miserable about it, but mild irritation loves company.

4. I encountered it as well

I was concerned that DU might have been under a "Denial of Service" attack.

5. Lots of 504 Gateway Timeouts

Been rebooting everything, clearing history and data.

Probably some hack attack (Denial of Service) going on, but Cloudflare and others aren't saying.

I lost some typing. Switching from phone to computer, where my typing is mirrored in a text editor.

Chair is not as comfortable, though.

Rethugs may be sabotaging things.
