Lichess disconnects, time me out for losses.

I make my move andnit seems the opponent is not playing. Suddenly his moves shows and my time has run down
This has been happening to me too over the last few days/week. And it's still happening now. So whatever bug fix got put in, there's something else still wrong.
I've had similar losses of time but not recently. And it does seem to be reconnecting me a lot but so far hasn't affected my games. I agree with a previous comment that lichess needs more patrons, donors, etc. Lichess is MUCH better than chess.com only chess.com got big first but we do have Magnus playing on this site fairly often! I know Lichess wants to keep chess free but I'd be willing to pay a membership for upgrades such as GM instruction and/or GM's answering questions, etc. and/or other features. I already purchased a lichess T-Shirt and would buy other Lichess merchandise to support the site if they went that route. I tell all my chess friends to drop chess.com and move up to lichess.org!
This is still happening in mobile app. You make a move and your opponent's time starts running. After 30 seconds (in 2 minute bullet game) I start being suspicious and go to the list of games and then back to the game - just to discover that the opponent has moved tens of seconds ago and now my time has almost run out.
