One user, @Pat said the server is a bit sluggish for him today, but its fast for me.
Anyone else out there seeing a slow response from the server?
@freemo @Pat have you enabled the instance ticker? i think it does some kind of request which times out.
cf.
https://github.com/InstanceTicker/InstanceTicker/issues/11
Found it. Changed to Mastodon default Theme (dark)" and now the pages are loading quickly.
It is almost certainly the ticker's domain not resolving which gets you stuck on DNS resolution until it timesout.
@freemo
What's that domain and I'll try a host lookup from here?
