By the way there is a serious problem with the Astrophotography post!

There are some huge images there, so that may slow it down.
It takes some time even on my 100Mb connection, but those images are well worth waiting for.

Yesterday it was minutes till one page came up, now it is milliseconds again (Very fast access in Germany)
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

The Astro post repeatedly causes an error and tries to reload, but doesn't!

I guess the images are linked to flickr whose server is mostly very slow.

The Astrophotography topic has been repaired.
An incorrect linkage was being used, so Flickr was trying to link the largest version of the photos and loading was delayed or abandoned.
