Honestly this is more than a little loopy.
As an example,
I am reading? the black family's pr nightmare, amazing work by a new
writer? strongly recommended.
There is a new chapter others say has been updated, chapter 32,? but again
reaching it is another matter.
In fact the m.fanfiction.net page, where I have the writer bookmarked,
does not indicate the new chapter at all.
If I google the name of the story, even google indicates there are 32
chapters.
Shame one cannot reach their staff.

This is still quite annoying for me.
I have updates on Saturday up to 10:40am and further back that I can access to read .. but anything after the next update I have at 1:50pm I can't access any updates .. just says come back in 15 minutes..
So, what happened Saturday?? probably around noon? .. just so frustrating is all.

Perhaps?
A touch of positive news?
Unsure how you are reaching your stories, but shortly ago m.fanfiction.net
Stopped working.
Then, just now, I checked one of the writers I have bookmarked there who's work was not showing as having been updated at ffn, even while I got the new chapter at ao3 on Saturday.
The work is now updated at m.ffn, so I hope that means things updating on Monday will follow soon.
Hope that makes sense,
Kare

so frustrating is all. That _really_ sounds like the right timing for volunteer devs to deploy an update. Keep in mind that, as far as I can tell, the owner of FFNet is a control freak (given the lengths he's gone to to rule out anything but his approved section breaks). I can easily imagine someone thinking FFNet is worth volunteering their time for... and very quickly getting ground down to the point that they're only putting in the bare minimum. I'm just saying.

Huh, that one is one of the few updates I did manage to reach. I was able to read ch 7 of that one, and the latest for Vimes FILFY Teacher, even while all the other updates don't show up.

I use an android phone and tablet with an app called Moon Reader Pro, which will read files I download using the built in TTS engine, so I can listen to any book I like from ff.net or anywhere else I can download. I don’t have very good vision and can’t read from the screen as I used to.? Another plus with this is that I can listen while doing other things, like driving or walking or ignoring people I don’t like. ? Sent from for Windows 10 ?

It’s really good but chapter 7 is not accessible although the header says it’s there.
