Occasional slow loading and gateway timeouts

The past few days I've noticed occasionally dbzer0 loads extremely slowly, or even hits a gateway timeout.

Is it just me or is the instance having some trouble keeping up?

Seems like it's only the front-end that has trouble loading, as I could still navigate next pages just fine while a different tab was busy timing out on load.

Also another thing I noticed is sometimes while it's still loading, the title of the page will be about a different post altogether. Not sure if that's related, sounds like just a caching issue to me.

I've had the timeouts. Especially when trying to post images

Ok thinking I need to change object storage to fix those. I don't know what why else it would happen randomly like that and contabo has been pretty shite tbh.

When you notices issues, can you thy to use the voyager frontend and see if they persist there? I have a suspicion on why this is happening.

Running into gateway timeouts again right now, but as you suspected the voyager front-end is still working fine (typing this on it right now)

Yes, I have a strong suspicion on why this is happening, so I'm taking steps to resolve it but will take a while. Just blocked all bytance bots scraping the site however so I'm curious if it will help
