Another DDOS? Seeing a generic 504 white page again. Feeling sad. Frustrated. Discouraged. Comments and posts have been just completely disappearing lately. No JS console errors. Just... spins and spins. Eventually says Loading... and the comment is gone. Had it happen on a root post last night also. Is your team using Steemit.com enough to see these issues also? Is there any logging to indicate how often it's happening system-wide?
I've defended the steemit.com team for over a year now, just telling people to be patient and encouraging them that it will get worked out. Was I wrong? I'm looking forward to Steemfest2 where we can discuss this stuff in more detail in person.
