PF is migrating to a new host with improved hardware and pricing due to the current host's data center closure. The transition is expected to occur this week, potentially between Tuesday and Thursday, with minimal downtime of a few hours. Users may experience temporary errors during the switch but should not be alarmed. The new setup aims to enhance performance and reduce issues like duplicate posts that have been reported. Overall, the migration is seen as a beneficial move for PF's future operations.

Let me investigate this further on my end, before I bring this back (e.g. to Greg or Matt), to make sure it wasn't temporary. It's not a big deal anyway. No other changes noticed so far, everything's great, the forum still superfast everything else otherwise ! ...
Waited a few days. It seems fast and normal now in all respects ...

Well there is a member @Greg. Typing @Greg , (with the space), brings up Greg Bernhardt at the top of the list.

Yep Clicked Greg Bernhardt and it didn't autocomplete - first time. Did on secomd try. Some bit someplace gets changed after first try.

Just a minor annoyance.

I do log-off. I use private-mode in browser anyway, so if browser were closed, I would be automatically disconnected from physicsforums. I would then sign-in again when I want another session on the physicsforums.

It's intermittent here, as is occasionally the banner at the page top doesn't show until the first scroll action. Both worked this time.

Intermittency is my observation too.
Computers were predictable pre-Microsoft.
So it goes.
As i said, minor annoyance. I'll quit complaining.
