Lichess pages don't load properly

I don't know how to add a screenshot, so will try to describe.

When a page starts loading in browser, it lasts too long and results in just a scheme of a page, only words, no pictures, no board and so on. It has very bad consequences: for example, a new game doesn't start and I lose it because of not moving. Like here: lichess.org/6rhvRaMC/black It hinders me to teach students as well, makes analysis feature hard to use.

First time I met such bug about a month ago, but supposed it would be fixed fast. Unfortunately this bug appears more often with every new day. I am afraid to participate in tournaments because such non-chess things make me nervous and don't allow to enjoy the game.

I have a fast and stable internet connection (100 Mbit/s), don't use vpn. Have met this bug in Chrome, Edge, Opera browsers. At the same time the app works good.

this also happens to me sometimes
Sounds like a corruption of the local browser cache. What I like to do in these situations is to start Developer Tools in the browser and check the "Disable cache" checkbox, then refresh with the dev tools open. This also allows you to see what's wrong in the Network tab.

I tried to clear cache, it doesn't fix the problem. And as I said, it appears in different browsers.
This could possibly be a DNS issue, where lichess1.org which serves the assets fails to resolve. You could try a different DNS server or add IPs to your hosts file, so that the domain name is resolved locally.

>I lose many times because of this. I go the other tab and come back to the tab which I am playing it takes a lot of time to load and I lose

This sounds like something else tbh.
