    Hey folks, having recurring issues over the past few days on mobile. Accessing from abroad fwiw. Site is slow too

    The is the most common issue but occasionally get 404s

    Cache seems wonky too. Takes me to latest posts on some threads that are a few days old

    I’ve cleared my own cache and logged out etc but makes no difference

    On iPhone, safari. Happens on WiFi and cellular.

    Sane here. It's mostly on touch version of the site.

    On my phone I am now being asked by a captcha to choose the pics with certain items. I cannot see these without zooming in. When zoomed in the screen misreads the screen taps. The site has become unusable on my phone.

    Sorry to hear that Wearb, I am getting the same on my phone when I check it here. Cloudflare is obviously detecting some traffic it doesn't like and is checking all connections before allowing access to the site, usually this will abate after a while but I'm not sure what you can do to make accessing the captcha any easier. I was able to do it on the touch site ok but I realise the images can sometimes be hard to decipher and even more so on a small screen.
