I'm guessing you're already aware of these problems, but since there isn't any notification about the update that I can find, I thought I'd report some issues I've noticed after the update.

-E-mail notifications aren't coming through anymore
-The subscription list isn't being sorted when new updates appear.
-The support contact form isn't working, nothing happens when you click "send".

Some sort of notification on the front page might be a good idea.

*Edit*
Compiling new issues that emerge here:
-No access to site

Hallelujah, I thought I was going insane! Thanks for posting this thread! Yes, there was no email notify about the "website update"...the only way I knew about it was when I tried to visit the site I got a page stating it.

Like you, my inbox was EMPTY this morning....huh? So I went into "My Profile" and when you scroll all the way down there's a section for notifications...you need to click on 'email me every time there is an update' (or something to that effect). Seems with this update everyone's was set to a default of "only once" .....yikes!

=============================
Update: Here's what that section looks like:

Default Subscription Frequency
Immediate
Daily Digest
Weekly Digest
Site Only
(No Email)
Don't SubscribeAutomatic(?)
Use this frequency without asking me when I create a new subscription
Show a dialog for me to pick from every time

That's not affecting it - the only once means that if there are, say, 5 updates to a thread, you will only be notified of the first one via e-mail. If you uncheck that box, you will get 5 individual e-mails for those updates, so if you have 10 subscribed threads, and in each of them 5 people post something, you will get 50 e-mails, while with the "only once" option, you would just get 10 e-mails.

I've also stopped getting email notifiers, along with some other minor problems. Please post here if you're having problems with as much detail as possible. I've given @Nifty-Chicken a head's up, so he can let the techie staff know.
 
It took me a few tries to log in without getting a system error page. Clicking the new posts button also takes several clicks. I'm on my mobile if that makes a difference.

And then there's the overall sluggishness, but that might be caused by a lot of calls timing out.
I haven't been on BYC enough to notice the other problems, but I've definitely noticed this. BYC isn't loading quickly for me, and sometimes I just end up giving up and leaving because the page hasn't started appearing after five seconds.
