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.
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.

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.

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.
