What gives? Is chrome a bad browser to browse SEN on? Is that a known issue or is it just how it is?
Maybe it's a local problem? Anyone from Quebec or eastern Canada can tell me whether they're experiencing the same issues or not?
None.
It is known that SEN is very slow. Browser and geographic location won't change this.
None.

It may have been extra slow recently - Moose was doing some file transfers to the new server.
This is a known issue with the site. Performance is very poor with regards to scaling up the numbers of users. Additionally, some areas of the code are exceptionally bad and also cause performance problems.
We are currently in process of moving to a new server with some better hardware. We will also be opening up the site's code for development by the user base and hope to reap performance gains among other improvements from that.
Lastly, in addition to already slow performance, I'm also syncing all user-uploaded content to the new server, which eats up a lot of bandwidth and resources.

The Maplantis merger should have gone the other way.

Doesn't matter what the name of the site is the people writing the code would still be the same.
Someone (Moose) should really sticky a thread detailing this so that every user that comes back here doesn't ask why the site is so slow a million times.

To this day latova isn't finished and I believe Yoshi abandoned it years ago. So we'd be in about the same place at this point.
Moose, we might want to think about a public progress / status thread.
See the
Server Relocation Megathread for status updates and my personal issue tracker on the migration.
I've also made some
improvements to the shoutbox that helped slightly.
Well thanks for the heads up, sorry for asking a question everyone seems to know about, looked on this forum and didn't see any thread on the topic on the first page, which seems to span quite a few years, so I figured nobody brought it up.
None.
There is no need to apologize, this information already should have been provided to the users and it is SEN staff who failed to do so.
