Enforced https
When did that change? I can no longer choose to connect with http but will be redirected to https!
 I know many sites do that, but shouldn't that be my choice? Especially if I use retro hardware to connect, which may not support the latest SSL/TLS algorithms. I also don't think that encryption is necessary to view contents which everybody should see. Maybe you can enforce https after a log in, but not before? |

Login is when you especially need https. Otherwise your password etc is going via plain text. Which is a security risk to the site |

 But anonymous reading of the forum should never need https. |

HTTPS is great for security but definitely has a significant performance impact for browsing on Amigas without an expensive accelerator card
