Curating has become painfully slow ...

Anyone else experiencing this? When I try to up-vote a comment or reply to a comment it just spins.

It has, Steemit.com has been under heavy load due to DDOS attacks. When it is not working as intended try out busy.org.

The Steem blockchain and Steemit.com and 2 separate entities, busy.org is just another portal to access the Steem blockchain

Calling it slow is giving it too much credit. Drives one nutso, that's for sure. Hope they fix it soon.

YES ... It has been painfully slow. Upvoting, resteeming and replying...

It is happening right now as I try to upvote this post. I am glad to hear it may not just be my hardware and web connection.

Oh, and it just popped up, "Transaction failed."

Yup....frustrating isn't it?

Same problem. I restarted my browser just in case there were any issues there, because I couldn't even upvote this on my first viewing.

yup...same here..

Actually it never happened with me . So may it happen with other .
Sir I have blog regarding fun elements, can you plz do a visit to my post. And upvote them which u like and if u like the content then plz do follow me friend. Actually I need your support .

Yes, happens to me all the time! Sometimes have to refresh the page and try again :/ But I'm nothing if not stubborn lol

ddos sux!

It's a frustrating experience at the moment. Busy may be a better option for now,but most won't know about that and may give up. Getting the sure working should be the top priority

happening with everyone the votes are not going and comment appear twice on a single post :(

These Ddos attacks are really giving pain
I was not able to upvote the post

Yeah hard to do anything. Just made a post. Took two tries, and very slow.

I literally have to sit here or close the page out 1-2 times before the comment or upvote comes . It's getting annoying and I didn't expect Steemit to become this way

Yes for me it spins more than 12 seconds. It's very annoying.
