Default Google doesn’t work

I’m tech dumb. I’ll be calling the store (or somebody) today with my issue. Google has been slow to load for about a month. After loading it’s fine. Yesterday it loads then when I search for something it jumps back to the main page so I don’t get anywhere.

My Google wouldn’t load a few days ago. I always check if other devices in the house are having trouble too. After checking that no one had Google, we determined that the storm was causing the outrage. After the storm, it was fine. If that fails, I reboot my device.

I've been seeing some slow response times lately that for me is mostly demand on our system load in my neighborhood. I switched out of google a couple of months ago for duck duck go and I'm not fully happy with either option yet. So I haven't used google enough to notice a difference.

I would advise running some extra virus/malware type scans and cleaning out your history. Just in case...

But on the other hand, sometimes things are going on that we are largely unaware about, the online game I play has (or claims, conspiracy stories vary) somewhat regular ddos attacks. I can definitely tell when those happen, sometimes I can play and sometimes I am in queue for what is estimated to be something like 1000 years.

Not all companies admit to being attacked or are trying to track down the issues.
