Issues definitely fixed in tonight's update

Tonight we will push out a site update which will definitively fix the issue where the site shows you old news when you login. There are multiple bugs which are causing the behavior. The team will work in the evening to fix this and deploy the update tonight.

Why the site has been down intermittently..

We are trying to optimize the cache for better economics of scale, also trying to fix the problem where you keep seeing read articles when you first start reading news.

Some major site updates have been done which should significantly improve the performance and the stability of the site. I can already see it is much faster than before and things work a better.

More changes will come but major changes are done for now.
