STEEM Wallet Issues and Image handling

In the last two weeks I am experiencing slow access to STEEM wallet and it seems, the issue is not at my side.

Any idea what's going on? Under attack or some infrastructure bottleneck?

Do you know someone who could investigate and resolve this?

There is a new issue as well, when uploading images with spaces/interval symbols in their filename, they are not handled correctly, they appear broken, see an example below.

This is also a relatively new issue.

Thanks if you can help.

@ety001 is already working on the wallet issue. As far as I know, the required ah node service crashed recently. Not sure about the image upload issue, but I will let him know ;)

Much appreciated @steemchiller was about to write to @ety001 since I think he recently made changes on how images are handled. For me the wallet issue if fixed today, but still having errors with images.

Thank you for the update, I suppose still work in progress, as I just got another "504 Gateway Time-out" while writing this message.
Hopefully it gets resolved sooner, I know we could use the "Balances" tab at https://steemworld.org/ but we better have the official wallet site stable or probably many get spooky.

Appreciated passing that on!

Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.
