Can someone on #friendica but not on venera.social or libranet.de get in touch and tell me of their experiences using the service?

Is it usually slow? Does it go through delays in post delivery? Does it have other problems? Or is it smooth and effective?

I think he's trying to understand if Friendica, in general, has performance issues, or the performance issues he's experienced are specific to the instances he joined.

He's asking people for their experiences on other instances. He may be thinking of either moving to a different Friendica instance, or leaving Friendica.

I'm very interested in hearing about people's experiences on their different servers.

@abeorch that's probably not the best yardstick to compare - too different to the systems I know. Much fewer connections too, probably.

Those two servers are very slow and experiencing huge delays and I'm curious if it's a software thing or them being run in insufficient hardware.

I will have to trace back because only saw it when @Jerry on Friendica shared it. I do notice some delays on my Instance sometimes but recently.increased memory as I noticed the worker jobs were failing occasionally and the network page wasnt loading. It definitely resolved the second issue. @Jerry on Friendica kindly created an account for me to test Friendica. Im happy to do the same for you if you wish.

@abeorch @jerry Thanks for the offer, but I already have one, on venera.social.

Which currently is pretty much unusable.

So thats your server? Have you turned on logging to check out whats happening?

@abeorch @jerry My server? No. I'm just a user.

Both venera.social and libranet.de are run by Steffen Krumbholz. (I think he has a profile on each server - on venera.social it's @steffen - but I don't know how closely he monitors it.)
