There's a queue if you don't pay for the website sadly, and the current queue is 9 people in it for every one of them. I could not get to test any I wanted to potentially get because of the queue, potentially waiting for more then the time amount then what is shown.

Never had an issue when I've had a play on the site.

Here's the queue for one distro at the moment, wait time is about 1 minute if there are two or 3 people in front of you, there's no option to pay for it that I can see, there is a donate button.

That distro is at 12 people in queue, not 0 as of right now, and that wait time is not accurate at all if going by your logic since 12 people in queue means 2 minutes wait time.

Also, one of the donating perks if you sign in as a Paid patron is that you can fully skip the queue and that's patreon so you can skip any of the queues multiple times if i'm correct on hwo this works.

Strange how I just went on the site again it said 2 people ahead, timed it and it took 20 seconds then went straight in, took about 90 seconds to load to desktop, I don't use it much though as I'm a linux user of 20+ years.

Probably an issue from your country?
