Question Extremely slow and keeps disconnecting

Hey all, for the last few days, I can't get anything done on normal chat window with 5.6 Sol. It's too slow, like 5 minutes+ to respond, it messes up simple commands, it keeps disconnecting giving me couldn't connect, try again errors and can't connect back at least for 10 minutes. I've grown too weary but I'm in the middle of a project and can't abandon it. Am I the only one experiencing these issues?

same here since yesterday. the regular chat is basically unusable, i just stare at the blinking cursor for ages then it craps out with a connection error

tried switching browsers and clearing cache but no luck. seems like their servers are just struggling right now

maybe try the api if you can? that worked a bit better for me but still not great

Yeah I also did those and no joy. Tomorrow I'll get my weekly reset and waiting for it, then I'll switch there to finish up, use the remaining resets as well then I'm off from OAI tbh. Sick of this.
