A few Lemmy.world users have been complaining that the website is slow for them, what is your experience?

At least I'm not a little bitch and I know what I like.

When I click to post the comment, I get a loading circle gif that just spins forever. Tried waiting it out for a few minutes but nothing happens.
And to my knowledge lemmy doesnt do shadow bans so I would at keast know if I had been banned there.

This is a problem with all instances and has been only recently mitigated against. I deleted 2.7gb site cache for our instance.
Once LW finally upgrades they definitly need to inform their longer time users to wipe the site cache in their browsers.

North America. It's there a pattern of difference?

What about spam instances? Or is there another way that’s handled?

It took me about 40 seconds to load this comment section, then I cleared the cache as you suggested and it feels like modern internet again. Crazy. It was sitting at 2.1 GB stored for the site.

Hell yes. lemmy.world has always been slow for me. That's why I switched!

LW uses Hetzner, a German hosting company. The majority of people having issues seem to be from NA, which makes sense due to the further distance.

That could indeed be the VPN use.
You could maybe consider
- https://discuss.online/ for an instance based in the USA that defederates lemmygrad and hexbear, similar to what Lemmy.world does
- https://sopuli.xyz/ for an instance based in Europe that also defederates lemmygrad and hexbear
- https://lemmy.today/ for an instance based in the USA that does not defederate anyone (their blocklist is literally empty)
- https://lemm.ee/ for an instance based in Europe that has a very short defederation list (like 4 entries: https://lemm.ee/instances)

I did notice some slowdown fetching new posts last week in the all page from my instance, but locally it was fine.
Its seems to have gotten better since 2 or 3 days ago.

I wonder if it has something to do with the default Lemmy front end. I don’t have any slowness using Voyager on mobile or m.lemmy.world on desktop
