Most of the time when I load the Astrobin frontpage or if I click on a Link to Astrobin, there seems to happen some page forwarding, a blue circle flashes, and Astrobin presents itself as a blank page with only a non-functional header. I have to reload the page, then it works.
Not every time but very often.
I am on a Mac with Safari Browser. Same on my Iphone with installed Astrobin-app.

Does someone else experience this?

I’m seeing that a lot also. Reloading the page fixes it.

Thank you, now I know I am not the only one. Reloading does the job, right. But this is annoying.

Yep, same here, on Tahoe, Apple Silicon. Reloading fixes it, but it’s annoying.

Yes, I see that as well. I’m also seeing a bug when I upload a new revision to an image. It appears not to be uploaded and then it appears as an overlay to the previous version with the plate solves completely displaced. Here’s a screenshot:

While we're on the subject of listing various bugs here:

When I select the group membership for an image's content, only the first selected group is saved; afterwards, I have to edit the project and select the groups again for them to be saved.
