Time running after I made a move - Network issue?

I've had several instances in the past two weeks where I will make a move, the move will show as played on my board, but my clock continues to run. If I refresh the page, the move will show as having not been played, then I can re-execute the move and continue the game as normal. Unfortunately I usually lose quite a bit of time by the time I notice what is happening.

Having played 50k+ bullet games over the last 6 years, this problem has only started recently and is pretty frustrating to deal with. Just wanted to report the issue so folks can look into it. Thanks!

As an example if it helps, it happened during this game lichess.org/wCVAAGuL/black#27 on move 14 Be8.
Yeah, that has also happened to me many times. Hopefully it will get fixed soon.
wow you are only the second lichess master i have ever seen wowowowowow
OMG A LICHESS MASTER

I thought they are extinct

xD

Maybe the severs are overloaded?
Lance5500 fast-tsunami and Spiritchaser84 are only a few Lichess Masters.
Yes, I have been experiencing this bug a lot. I play a move on the board, the piece moves, the sound of the piece moving can be heard, but the move doesn't register in the algebraic notation, and my clock still runs (and runs out).

I have already reported this in other threads, but I have had very little response or interest. So it is good to see that I am not the only one experiencing this.

Please fix this bug. Thanks.

I have experienced the same, but so far only when I use Firefox. I do not know if that is a coincidence or if it is browser related.
Hmmm, I use Firefox as well. Maybe I will try Chrome and see if it's any better. Thanks!
This happens to me too a few times a day. Really annoying bug that has persisted for a couple of weeks now. I use Chrome on Windows, so it might not be browser-related.
