Ask HN: Does IndieHackers have a broken web architecture or is it just me?

Initially I thought I had a FireFox compatibility issue but I've been experiencing similar bizarre behavior in Chrome:

I click on a link, the URL changes in the address bar, but the page doesn't change. Sometimes it changes, occasionally it changes after a bit, often it doesn't change at all but does after I refresh.

On mobile, I open my browser (FF, iOS), try to visit the IH homepage, and get temporarily banned by CloudFlare for exceeding a rate limit.

WTF is going on here? Is it just me?

Tried it at around 3:05 pm (PST) and didn't notice the problems you described. Did that using Firefox, Vivaldi, and Web.

Have you tried again since running into those problems?

Yeah it’s been happening for a couple days now. I’m so confused.

I clicked around just now using Chrome, no issue. Was it random or limited to a specific set of pages?
