Going to a smaller instance might make things load faster because the smaller servers are under less strain. Tho some of the bigger servers are handling the influx of new users really well.

It also depends on what app youre using. I found jebora to be very slow/buggy. Connect for lemmy has wirked alot better for me.

Also a heads up: i think tools for transfering accounts to another server are still in development. So for the times being going to a different server means making a new account.

Gotcha. Yeah jebora is what I am currently using and did sort of suspect some issues are from it. Still getting used to it all so testing waters as I find them.

Makes sense, its a process figuring out which app and instance works best for you. Good luck & welcome to the fediverse :)
