This is a known issue, the programmers have been looking into it for a few days.

I've been having the same problem for about a week ... messages flicking on and off ... "Loading Data - Please wait ..."
and "Getting Mail - Please wait..."

problem solved ... at least for me! I deleted all my browsing data and can
now use the mail function on the site. Don't know how that worked ( I'm totally
non-techy and no grandchildren handy) but it did.

They're still working on it. They gave me a test version to try today and it still flickered, so they haven't solved it yet.

It only happens to me on my tablet, which can't access developer tools, so I can't give them helpful diagnostics.

It was happening to me on PC with Windoze 10 and Chrome.
I didn't try Android tablet.
Has stopped now but I am also using a less slow router which might be relevant.
