Just launched something that *should* show you an increase on page load speed for mobile - especially in the forums.

I can't tell if I've just been on shitty internet for a few weeks or if it really worked so post up what you're seeing!

Looking like this might affect iOS users more than Android.

iOS I'm noticing a massive difference. I could never figure out why it sucked so bad on iOS - but we discovered a tiny bug that was causing all kinds of page slowness on there.

Totally. The page seems to load all at once rather than from the top down. Thanks!!

Sweet. Yeah two small changes seem to have added up to a decent increase. Stoked.

Now that you mention it, it is quite a bit faster. I'm on a samsung galaxy s5 if that makes a difference. Thanks Bishop!

No worries! This is just the first part in a major series of mobile improvements.

I have a windows phone, Lumia 920, and ever since NS was down for a revamp for a couple days- maybe a month or two ago I can't remember I just remember it being a big deal on facebook, the mobile site has been next to unusable. The site loads fine and with decent speed but the links take forever to to become clickable, which makes browsing really frustrating and slow. And the editor has to be off for me to post on my phone.
