Ah, good point- I was mostly being hyperbolic to illustrate just how shitty the Reddit app was.
I think all the previous redditors did the same thing I did when signing up. Lemmy.world sounds the most general, so that’s the instance I used. I’ll give a smaller/more local one a try and see if that improves the performance!
I ran into the same issue with Lemmy.World. Tried switching to Beehaw.org first (before I learned that they had defederated from some of the bigger instances) and had my “application” rejected. Appears I didn’t provide good enough reasons for why I wanted to join their particular instance. To me, it just shouldn’t be that serious. Tried sh.it just.works and well, it works!
I ended up just setting up my own instance. Wefwef is speedy since I’m not hosting other users or any communities. I tried the native iOS apps but prefer wefwef.
Same. Started on lemmy.world which was great and all, but switched to feddit.nl since it’s closest to me, smaller and works faster for me. There are a lot of servers out there so we can spread the workload.

Even he knows reddit is a sinking ship.

Yeah I’ll probably end up doing this eventually, just hope there’s a way to migrate my account when I do.

That’s how I wound up on lemm.ee—US hosted, not the biggest one, with admins that seem to give a damn was good enough for me.
I lucked into lemm.ee and it’s been great. I decided to kick a few dollars in a month because hey why not? Highly recommend.

Aussie.zone for me.

lemm.ee is really good, fast, mature instance with good admin. Not ad, unfortunately 😁
