Move to a new instance and spread the load. Shit loads perfectly fine for me now and makes room for new folks who dive into the first link on the tutorials.
Yeah, I might just do that.
More people should move their accounts off to smaller instances with less load. You can still interact with communities the same way, but have a user experience that is a lot better.
Yes and no. I have an account on a small instance, and trying to find and subscribe to communities is still annoying because I have to retry the search a few times from a browser to get the server to federate, and then it takes a while for posts to show up. The other account I have, on a big instance, can find everything, but I get more errors just trying to browse and vote.
Just moved off lemmy.world. Comments and posts weren’t loading before and I had to keep refreshing. Now 100 percent faster with no errors.
On the upside, when it finally works, it usually has had other votes too so it feels like I just upvoted something by 20 points.
New account. New instance. No lag. Same feed.
The lemmy hug of death 🫂
Technically, Reddit’s final hug?
