Apologies for some recent downtime and speed issues. The site was having some issues with random slowness, which was related to the downtime and should now be fixed.

We had some downtime earlier this month due to the hosting provider (Linode) "experiencing an unexpected issue that requires immediate emergency work to be performed". That lasted from about 05:00 to 15:00 (UTC) on April 6th. The instance didn't come back up properly, due to an issue with podman networking. The networking was mostly fixed but still had random timeouts. The config was adjusted April 16th, which unfortunately resulted in some downtime from approximately 18:00 to 19:00 UTC. The random timeout issue should be fixed and Discuss Online should be generally speedy now though! Please comment if you encounter any issues with the site's responsiveness
