Introduction
An alarming slowdown of the entire Civitai site.
Let's start with my competition to give 500 yellow buzzes every 500 image generations:
1000 images reached on (Mar 19, 2026)
1500 images reached on (Mar 30, 2026)
2000 images reached on (???)*
2500 images reached on (Apr 6, 2026)
3000 images reached on (Apr 9, 2026)
3500 images reached on (Apr 12, 2026)
4000 images reached on (Apr 17, 2026)
Today after 7 days I am at 4.1K, this is after the splitting of the site (domain).
*article is no longer visible.
Everything is in slow motion.
While the generation of images seems to flow normally, their actual publication takes a long time, even hours, the same goes for LoRa models and even articles (this article could be read hours after it was written)
What does this entail? The contents risk not being seen, or seen by few, and it would be as if one had done nothing, in short it is just a waste of time. Not to mention the messages of failed scans, a kind of censorship, because the site is not able to ensure content suitable for everyone, separating R+ content from PG or PG13 content.
I await better times
In the meantime, better times arrive, I slow down the activity, I take the prizes awarded in greater quantities, but I post less, so I hope the backlog of work will be disposed of and we will return to normality.
