Usually when I post a comment the spinny wheel takes 1-3 seconds. Today it’s taking 45-90 seconds. So I reset my phone, thinking it’s just me, but no.

Anyone else having this issue, or is Verizon throttling Lemmy for me?

    Lemmy is decentralized, there is no singular Lemmy as a whole unless you’re talking specifically about the server software. As a user you interact with your home instance, in your case lemmy.world.

    Most connectivity problems and slowdowns are instance-specific unless you’re talking about a federation problem specifically, for example you posted but it doesn’t show up on other instances, that’s a problem between your instance and the community’s instance.

    In your case you most likely just hit something on lemmy.world’s side. Lemmy as a whole is way too small for them to even care about it.

    I’ve been having sub second response times consistently on mine. This post submitted instantly.
