So the topic for this week is performance. I frequently experience very slow loading times for different views. Slow as in multiple seconds. The home timeline, notifications view, single post views with replies, etc.
Most people start by assuming it's my client. I tried the official masto client, Tusky, elk.zone, and now phanpy.social. All have the same issue. So it's probably something on the server side, and thus something I may be able to control as the admin of my instance.
