I live in the Azores Islands and ever since the server move I no longer get full page loads. There are always bits and pieces that aren't loading. Same with Mac. Win11 and Linux. And yet we have much higher speed fiber optic internet than I ever had in the US.
Thanks. It seems to point at cloud-services or other second-/ third-party services implemented in the RP website, like my hunch already told.
FOSS apparently is not a concern in web-design..
LEANNESS definitely not!

A European server was upgraded and migrated to a new ip.
Should clear up soon. Along with some improved performance :)
Thanks, @jarro. Yet, it would be nice to be able to know things like that while ongoing, or even in advance. - I've been asking myself what's going on and trouble-shooting in vain for almost a week now.. just sayin'. - Thanks again to the dedicated RP-Team for thriving to go global.
The RP website has been laggy and unresponsive, as of late (less than a week). Today it culminated in a total 404 (domain not reachable) for several hours (from Europe).
Just now it is back up and functioning well.
Did you migrate any web-servers, dear @RP-Team?
If so, it would be nice to have a public channel for such announcements in the future... just a thought from my end.
Thanks.

With so many different servers and feeds it is hard to predict any failures. They are usually brought to the attention of the staff in this thread.
Right now - again - the website takes forever to load completely (i.e. it is super-laggy)! ...and eventually fails to load all modules.
Even while I am typing, the web-browser fails to load the page completely... it has been like that for almost a week. And it is not related to my end, since it is all the same, regardless of the computer or OS in use. All other web-traffic is working just fine and as expected here.
Think it must be related to some 'foreign' services implemented into the website-makeup!
The streaming links all keep working well...

Weird. If I shift-click a link in the RAFT, it opens in a new window and is marked as "visited" (purple) but if I just click, it opens in the same window and stays the same color.
Mac Chrome
I get the same with Chrome (Mac)...but I get the purple with Firefox and Safari.
Now "visited" links are the same color. Doesn't matter much to me but was that intentional?

Dark Blue for link and Purple for a visited link was the standard. Donât need an underlined text.
Way back in 94â a visited link was red if I remember correctly.
We stuck with a blue since it seems to be what the internets have settled on for the most part. Glad it works better for you!
I totally get this but, on the other hand, people are pretty web savvy and will quickly see what is and isn't clickable â> we don't underline links anymore, which of course was the "standard" for a while.
I'd love to see a link/visited link colour scheme that better reflected/integrated with the overall site design.
edit: lots of people still underline links ( I see) but it seems kind of old school
