I’ve noticed this, though I use Boost. I thought it was just my instance since I would consistently get 502 errors, but things have been loading very slowly on other instances too.
The instances are not guaranteed to run on good hardware and the nature of defederation means you are at the mercy of the weakest link in many scenarios. It is the nature of the beast.
The first season had an all-star VA cast, but it was like they were told to give their worst performances. It was full of animation errors as well. It just felt really sloppy overall.
