Is anyone else having problems loading this website?

  If you use uBlock or similar script-blocking extensions, temporarily unblocking scripts and XHR on parastorage.com should allow the article to be viewed.[1] Loading 157 scripts for a text article (actually, for any kind of content) seems way overkill, though. It will also cause CPU usage to spike to 100% on load, on top of that. [1]: https://files.grid.in.th/apCdTE.png https://files.grid.in.th/apCdTE.png

    I'm not. Just plain firefox. Looks like the site is loading an email signup popup which freezes the browser or all the scripts. I have no idea, but it blows my mind thay anyone thinks its a good idea.

    It also shows a picture/ad? over the content after a few seconds, so yeah.. this is exactly the kind of cancerous website that I'd be happy to never see again.

  Yes. I just closed the tab after a "loading spinner" sat on the sidebar for a couple of seconds, right as Firefox warned me that a script on the page was slowing the browser down. I'm just really tired of sites pushing hundreds (or even tens, really) of MB of script for text content.

  Yeah. I'm using Safari and it claims I'm using an outdated version of IE, only showing me a notice and link for Chrome.

  Safari on iPad here, terrible loading time then really clunky/slow. Only just had the patience to let it load.

    guys -thanks for all the comments on this. wasn't aware it was such an issue. Maybe it's the fact that the subscription pop up has a moving graphic. I'll remove that and hope it helps. thanks for the tip
