wiki is unreachable
I have not been able to reach the MobileRead wiki for a couple of days now. Can anyone reach it? All I get is a spinning watch that goes on forever with only the tab title changing. I have tried to contact Alex but haven't heard back.

Thanks, my browser is evidently hosed somehow. I can use a different one and reach it.

The wiki worked fine for me on Firefox using a Mac just now. No loading or speed problems.
Maybe you could try doing a Firefox refresh or create a new profile to see if something's broken in your old one? |

I concur with the above advice and statement down to the version numbers and Firefox bloated with extensions.

Works for me FF 52.0.2 x64 on W10 x64 (intel) w/very few extra plugins
Things are just getting bloated everywhere. I doubled my DSL speed and many page loads can still crawl (not usually on MR) |
