My default browser is Firefox. When I go to some parts of the SimSig web presence (Wiki for example) things lag horribly "waiting for use.fontawesome.com". I have tried going into Troubleshooting mode (used to be called Safe Mode) so no extensions enabled and some background functions disabled but the problem is still the same. This does not happen with the other browsers I might use (Chrome, Edge, Vivaldi) where the pages load immediately. Is anyone else using Firefox and seeing the lagginess? If it is not just me, does anyone know of a workround? “In life, there is always someone out there, who won’t like you, for whatever reason, don’t let the insecurities in their lives affect yours.” – Rashida Rowe Log in to reply |

I don't use Firefox these days as it was very sluggish a while back. But it seems OK when I tested just now. Peter I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs! Log in to reply |

I use Firefox all the time and that doesn't happen to me. If you right-click a blank area of the page, click View Page Source, and then click on the blue underlined use.fontawesome link on or near line 11, do you get some text that starts "window.FontAwesomeCdnConfig = {"? If you do then I've no ideas. If you don't then perhaps it has been blocked by something? SimSig Boss Log in to reply |

The diagnostic tools accessed by pressing F12, and attempting to reload the page, may provide some insight.

In the console I can see the line: 02:01:16.661 Loading failed for the <script> with source “https://use.fontawesome.com/18b2cf4af1.js”. Show:11:1 which is generated after the lag while the page freezes. However, I have no idea where to go to try and find out why the loading failed. “In life, there is always someone out there, who won’t like you, for whatever reason, don’t let the insecurities in their lives affect yours.” – Rashida Rowe Log in to reply |

Why it should affect my system but others users are not seeing the problem is beyond me. It looks like that sorted itself out in the end so maybe we'll just have to wait and see. “In life, there is always someone out there, who won’t like you, for whatever reason, don’t let the insecurities in their lives affect yours.” – Rashida Rowe Last edited: 22/09/2022 at 08:17 by postal Reason: None given Log in to reply The following user said thank you: JWNoctis |
