Trying to view Loforo on mobile frequently results in broken images, usually loading of them slowed to crawl. While using a 4G connection other sites loads fine, but the primary image host (thumbsnap) is painfully slow. Can't even view images properly some times as they fail to load.

Those videos are hosted on thumbsnap and are still not properly loading. When trying to view such videos on new tab using browser feature to view such video the is redirected to actual video page but the browser shows error like the video was corrupt or in unsupported format. Checking browser console shows 404 page on final url. It appears there's still something wrong or messed up on thumbsnap causing videos not showing properly, like not finished processing, not moved to right place or other unknown problem, etc.

It appears that the default image hosting provider on loforo is randomly deleting images w/o discretion. This generates alot of broken image posts with images leading to a 404 page. Loforo should either stop using thumbsnap and use alternative service or alternately host images on itself like it was before since a service that randomly deletes content is not reliable for job that it was given.

Edit: it appears that the missing images and videos reappear after some time since they'd been gone, this might be some issue on thumbsnap end and/or they're being restored there where I don't know which is an actual cause being there. Read More »
