Anyone else? Can barely navigate, feels like browsing with a 56k modem. I’m in the US Northeast.

Probably my fault - and other folks like me. Yall are having a pretty large influx of new users, so hopefully it’ll even out soon. I see a lot of loading errors too, but since I blame me, I’m dealing well with it.

I definitely understand it would be irritating for long-time users though. Sorry!

Maybe the longtime users, but anyone who’s joined in the last month has been waiting for this mass migration to liven up the place. I think we’d all trade some temporary slowness for a bulk of new users, I saw a post earlier saying lemmy.world has grown 40% in the first 12 hours after reddit killed third-party apps.

Hell, I was on kbin.social when the blackout started, and that site went pretty much unusable.

Oh I wouldn’t worry about the “long-time” users. The Lemmy.world instance was established only a month ago!
