Whenever I go to the explore page and click the All link:

http://beta.scratch.mit.edu/explore/projects/all

Then select Sort By “Most Loved” from the drop down menu:

http://beta.scratch.mit.edu/explore/projects/all/?order_by=love_count

The page usually just hangs and the progress icon in the browser spins forever. This happens at least 90% of the time. The only way I seem to be able to actually get it to come up is by copying the link above from the address bar, closing my browser, then opening it and pasting the address back in again. That usually works for some reason. I've tried this in lots of different browsers, including on my phone, and it's always the same.

I'm afraid that the net effect of this might be that people avoid these pages since they hang too often. Therefore, people with really good projects that have gotten some attention may not be getting as much attention as they would otherwise. I know this isn't just a big ego contest, but people do like to get noticed, especially when they have put a lot of work into something.

A more consistent, or at least varied, selection of featured projects would also help in this area, but that's a topic for another time…

Thanks! Yep, that does take too long. I'll file it as an issue, and we'll sort it out!
