Ironically after our latest message the DDoS attacks intensified a lot, so for the time being clearnet is down. The Tor version works perfectly so please use that instead for now, we will solve the issue in the next hours. We will also add a suggestion to use the Tor version on the clearnet site whenever it's under heavy enough DDoS that it doesen't load anymore.

As an added bonus, could a user not essentially send money from one note they own to another note they own, thereby gaining even more privacy since at that point even you wouldn't know if they had sent money to someone else or just back to themselves?

That's a very good point and one we did not consider. You could send from a Note to another one you own, so you continue to have plausible deniability even if at a future time the service gets compromised and we lied about the logs policy and actually stored everything all this time.

Can you do this with an unfunded note? What I mean is, if I want to use pay to note to pay another user, do they need to have a funded note already, or can they create an empty note for me to pay to?
They can create an empty note for you to pay to and the process would be the same as now.

Good to see this problem will be fixed since i was affected when i wrote the review.
We thought users would panic if they don't receive their funds back according to the delay they set, but you are right that the standard procedure should work this way. If a longer downtime every exists and someone really needs his funds back faster he could reach out to support

Just wondering, which mobile browser do you use to perform UI check? Chrome? Firefox? Tor Browser?
We will check on all of them when we get to that, but currently the UI is the actual last priority. We improved it enough that it's completely usable, every button works and nothing is horrendously out of place
