PhotoBucket...The Horror, The HORROR!!! (Molasses Slow & Hard to Navigate)
Self | July 29, 2016 | PJ-Comix

Posted on 07/29/2016 10:18:05 AM PDT by PJ-Comix

Has anybody tried uploading to PhotoBucket recently? For the past few days I have tried but the site is not only molasses sloooooooooow but difficult to navigate. I haven't had this problem in the past. Hopefully they will soon fix it because right now it is FRUSTRATING!!!


TOPICS: Computers/Internet
KEYWORDS: photobucket
If you have accessed PhotoBucket recently, try it and let me know if you too have the same difficulty.

Nope, just tried it and it was the same as usual. Not particularly slow.

Yup! And for the past few minutes it is STILL trying to complete an upload. Oh, and I tried it several times earlier but no go.

The Russians must have hacked your computer.

Clear your cache/history and restart your computer.

It has always been terrible, just the best of a bunch of bad options. Their idea of a user interface is a joke, and no, I don’t want to buy some sh!tty rendering of my pic printed on whaleskin or anything.

Not only slow, I have to re-sign-in everytime I go, even after ‘remember me’ box is checked.

A decade or so ago, I would take screencaps of live events and post via Photobucket for FR. I could capture, upload and post in about 20 seconds.

Over time, the Photobucket interface became more and more difficult to use.

I seldom upload pix to it for posting on FR. It is too much of a hassle. But, I don’t take that many screencaps, since they are more readily available on news websites.

I’ve noticed it slows down sometimes, now they have pop ups that cause problems and they often open extra web pages which slow down my computer. Clean off those extra pages and I still have pop ups.

My photobucket account expired like 3 or 4 years ago and I don’t miss it.

A comment from another FReeper earlier today reminded me that I have almost no internet presence anymore. No Myspace (yes), no Facebook, no Photobucket, just FR and a couple other forums...and Tumblr where you can remain anonymous.

Some day I may even quit the net completely.

It’s been slow for me for several years, despite getting a new computer. Lately, though, it sometimes seems a lot faster. A mystery.
