It’s been like one or two weeks, under which overlooking at local subscriptions on https://teddit.net is becoming really slow.
Refreshing, or loading a particular entry has become really slow.
Haven’t tried https://libredd.it instead yet, since I do prefer the teddit interface.
Is it just me? Would it be just teddit, or libreddit as well?
Thanks !
Edit: libreddit is pretty slow as well, :(
Edit 2: Things look better on libredd.it now, teddit still seems way slow, though better. That sort of tells me the issue affects teddit more. Actually on libredd.it it feels like one or two weeks back now. I’m staying with libredd.it on compact mode then, though I preferred teddit UI, since I no longer feel the same slowness as before, neither as with teddit. So to me, issue is sort of gone. Thanks all !
I don’t really feel them slowing down; so I doubt it.
Reddit absolutely could be throttling third-party front ends though.
As mentioned, I’ve started to notice it slower since one or two weeks back. More than usual (there’s always been some slowness). So the only thing that came to mind was reddit doing tricky things, but I have no clue how to prove it.
I’ll keep trying both, libredd.it and teddit, hopping perhaps libredd.it reacts just a bit faster by the virtue of being a compiled frontend mostly (rust), though I don’t think that’ll help much, since I noticed similar slowness with it…
Thanks !
I hadn’t noticed it before but now that you said it, it does seem slower, maybe hosting your own or trying other instances might help.
Slide for Reddit app is just as fast as the Reddit site, even with a VPN.
It might just be because a web-based Reddit client needs to load the content on their back end first, and then re-send it to you, and that’s the delay you’re feeling.

Seems better now, though still slower than it used to be. Libredd.it feels close to as usual. So that’s it for me, I’ll keep using libredd.it, although I like teddit UI better, :(
Thanks !
