Insults are not refreshed (always/often the same insult is shown)

[EvilInsultGenerator]

When asking the API for a random insults, it often delivers the same insults over and over.
Some users (website & API) and myself noticed this.

Yep, this is happening for me as well.

Thankfully I got a hint from a user and implemented it in 6d0f28b. 🙏

Still the same issue

Still the same issue

Maybe caching might be an issue. 🤔

Is it working for you guys? because its not working for me though

It's not working/refreshing for me too. Maybe there is some server-side caching of which I am unaware. 🤔
If anyone has a suggestion, please let me know.

One user sent this:

I found a workaround by adding a random get value and string at the end of the api call. Literally adding "&something=" with a random 20 character string. So the problem lies in the api requests getting cached, I'm guessing server side because the python API calls don't have a cache.

I've been having this issue as well, though I've only noticed this from the API side of things

Do you have an idea what might cause the issue? Any help is highly appreciated.

I don't, but I can definitely look at it and see if I can figure it out

[Natemo2625]

It seems like the issue has been resolved, at least from the API, insults are refreshing for me now

[EvilInsultGenerator]

Yes, it looking fine now. Maybe it was a server issue after all. 🤔
