I get time out on every single post I make and have to refresh the page, also every time I sign in.
Give it some time. Devs have had to go from a nonexistent community to tens of thousands. It will take some time to iron out the kinks especially with distributed open source developers. As for ‘soon’ I’d say probably a week at the absolute minimum. Growing pains of a new technology

For finding communities I recommend lemmyverse.net over browse.feddit.de; the former is more consistent
Same here, although it’s only like 90% of my posts. I figured it must be on my end, but I guess not.
I know there’s been a spike in users but like cmon. Lemmy has been running for like 2 years. Hexbear has just migrated over and all of their users are already complaining that the site is terrible.
Sure it’s been around for a few years, but with a consistently small number of users. With the massive influx of people over the past few weeks, it’s going to take some time to scale up resources to match the new demand. Plus, the code base has never been tested under this kind of load, so I’m sure there’s room for improvement there as well.
Short term fix would be to join a less crowded instance, or start your own.
Heck, if people are willing to help fund it, I’d gladly create an instance.
