It’s probably not even an issue with the ISP; I suspect it’s just some garbage-tier server 🤔

Gerald White44 said:The lag on this site is absolutely killing me. And it’s not just my connection at home, either, so I don't think it's an issue with my ISP. Every other site loads instantly, but trying to get this forum to open feels like I'm back on dial-up.

Yeah, tell me about it. I can pull up sites packed with a trillion high-res images and videos and they load in a heartbeat, yet this thing just crawls along like a broken-down tractor.🙂

God, I swear, this thing is moving at a snail's pace. It’s absolutely agonizing. 🤦

It leaves me with a few questions for anyone actually suggesting this:
1. In your estimation, how much would we need to spend on hosting just to get a forum like this running smoothly at scale?
2. What kind of ad revenue do you think a site like Reddit actually pulls in?

Given how often people pitch stuff like this, I assume the proposers think the hosting costs would somehow outweigh the ad revenue. I guess I'm just curious why they'd think that's the case?

Well, how much *is* actually required?

But since Carrano is in the cast 😲 🤣

I guess I might give it a look 🙂

It just doesn't seem right 🤮

Chrome:
Tools -> Settings -> Advanced -> General
Check the box for: Warn me when a website tries to refresh or redirect me

this should do the trick 😉

Johnny Drama 🙂

Honestly, who knows if they'll actually make it happen? 🙂

Morgan Rodriguez57 said:haha, yeah right, that's just not how they roll... 🙏 😁

that argument doesn't really hold water... all those other specialized subreddits try to maintain certain standards, whereas this religion forum feels more like a random message board that just lets the usual spammers run wild...

Exactly.

I can’t quite believe you’re trying to experiment with this right now 🤣 It feels like you’ve gone ahead and ignored our own established rules, and honestly, I was under the impression we all played by the same playbook here 😢 🤣

You’ve basically found a loophole in the "law"😬

People are going to remember this as the "Frank Reed4 vs. Reddit case," and everyone is going to start exploiting this 🤣 🤣

Is this some kind of joke or are they actually being serious? 🤣 I mean, is that even remotely possible? 🤔 🤣

Yeah, I’m definitely on board with that ☕

Go ahead and cast your vote for me as your next moderator 🙂 👋 👋

I’ll start by cutting taxes and expanding the local precinct ☕

nothing much 😉

Hey, just check out this link: http://www.online-image-editor.com/.

There's an upload area on the bottom left. Once you've got it uploaded, just hit resize at the top, and then you should see the option to input the dimensions down in that bottom left corner again 😉. I think you wanted 😁 75x75, right?

You did a great job resizing that yourself instead of letting Reddit handle it automatically. If you just let the site resize things on its own, you lose all that smooth animation effect 🤣

Well, you'll just have to see me in person tomorrow. 🤣
