DU is still slow. I have to hit Post twice then I get an error message but the post is there

Only for OPs, not replies.

Also, at least on my iPad, many avatars of posters are missing.

I hope that this isn’t a prelude for next week.

The timeout error actually posts multiple times if you attempt to repost after getting error message.

The “powers” button allows you to self delete duplicate posts.

and am faced with a yellow message about “an error” but when I get out, it is there.

Perhaps it depends on how long one is waiting before hitting Post again..
