It's HABBENING, everywhere.

The last hour or so, pages on FR are loading very irregularly -- sometimes normal, but more often than not they hang indefinitely, as if the connection was dropped.
All other sites seem to be fine, so I don't think it's at my end, or my ISP (Spectrum in Upstate NY).
Just figured I better get a sanity check.
I get a 504 Gateway time out and then it double posts.
On and off all day. PC and phone.

I just did a pathping to 45.79.56.181
It is taking more than 13 hops to get out of spectrum and charter.net!
DDOS, DNS attack.
Yes. It was very bad early this morning.
I just thought it was a DDOS attack by leftists.
Seems better now, but this is the first post I’ve loaded.
Update: Got an Error 504 Gateway timeout trying to post this.
No change from this morning.
Ditto.
My joke about how federal employees had to be fired twice...
Posted twice!
Well, DNS was pretty fast:
nslookup 45.79.56.181
Server: MyServerName
Address: 192.168.1.1
Name: freerepublic.com
Address: 45.79.56.181
Same here, Verizon MidAtlantic

You are not insane.
You are not sane.
You are sorta-sane.
(which means you are also sorta-insane)
((as are we all))
Yes, and sometimes the server times out
The same thing is happening out here in Arizona.
Taking forever to get thru charter.net and then stuck at netarch.akamai.com

Yeah, been seeing it all evening. It is getting pretty bad.
Yep. FR has been running slow for me since early this morning.
I blame China.
504 Gateway Error
For 2 hours now
FR is under cyber attack perhaps?
I blame Trump because of how many time I have to refresh the latest posts page since he came into office.😜
I shouldn’t have made those Xi memes 🤪
Ping times about 16 milliseconds.
For comparison, yahoo.com 32 milliseconds, aol.com about 7 milliseconds. South Central Kansas.
Sounds internal. I expect the machine is hollering at JimRob for help.
