Is my computer too old for Webtiles?


Problems running or configuring the software, commands & options, compiling, different platforms, using the interface, documentation, etc.

Is my computer too old for Webtiles?

So my computer is old and terrible (mac OS 10.6.8) and hasn't been able to run downloadable crawl for years, but since online still worked I wasn't particularly concerned.

But as of .18 I can't even load any webtiles pages, the connection always times out. I was wondering whether this is an issue that can be resolved without getting a new operating system or if there's a secret tech I'm missing or what.

Are you using chrome? What is the exact error message?

People play on raspberry pi so your machine is capable.

The same thing happens with Chrome, Safari, and Firefox(which I downloaded just to see if a new browser would solve it).
Chrome error message for all online servers is the following format.

This site can’t be reached
crawl.jorgrun.rocks took too long to respond.
ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT

Even over HTTPS?

It wasn't the https, but your post reminded me of other basic things like 'clearing the cache.' This resolved the issue for berotato, but Jorgrun.rocks remains elusive. But I only need one, so!

Thanks for providing moral support in my computer illiteracy!
