Is it just me, or do things feel slow online right now?

Mylot is about the same as usual but Prolific is way slow. It is too early for a holiday slow down in my opinion, I don't think anyone would have started their semester breaks yet. Crowdtap too, slow as molasses, I have been filling in with some of my apps. I don't like slow online equates to no money. Have any of your sites been slow?

I only noticed when I tried to submit a photo answer for 200 points on crowdtap that it kept messing up. I’m not sure if I got credit for it or not

@snowy22315 I wonder if it's a time zone kinda thing? Or maybe people are getting occupied with getting ready for the upcoming holidays?

What does prolific and crowdtap based on? I only work on Mylot right now as I have a job. But working on Mylot might get me some groceries so I work here. But I would love to work on more sites

I don't consider mylot to be a job. It is just a place to hang out and make a few pennies. Prolific is academic research and Crowdtap is short surveys.

@snowy22315 But Crowdtap is only for US residents. I live in Israel so Mylot is better for me. I just have to think of good topics to discuss here.

@snowy22315 When online traffic is going somewhere else, it seems very slow to us.

With elections in the US I think many had their attention on that, but who knows. Just a thought.

Maybe the internet misunderstood “slow time.”

That is normal at time for some sites to be slow.

It is always slow around the holidays, but it is too early to have that slowness now.

I make about half what I used to make here for about the same amount of work. But the friendship value makes up for any earnings loss.

Yes, the money is cool, but the socialization is better.
