Hey @Nardog do you seem to have these same loading issues when the JS interface is turned on, or is it only for the no-JS version? JWheeler-WMF (talk) 15:23, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

It's not a "loading issue"; it's by design and I want pagination. It applies to both the JS and non-JS interface. I have no idea what you are asking about. Nardog (talk) 15:41, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

The wish insinuated that you use the non-JS interface, so it wasn't clear if the poor loading happened on the JS interface as well. JWheeler-WMF (talk) 19:41, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

The problem isn't that it loads slowly per se. In order to see older changes, you have to increase the number of results, which inevitably results in slower page load. That's an effect, not the problem. The problem is that you can't show results starting at an earlier time instead of the present. Nardog (talk) 03:08, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

You can go back more than 500 entries if you use the non-JS interface and edit the URL directly, but obviously you can only increase it so much or it will time out or exceed your RAM capacity. Nardog (talk) 03:57, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
