Usually when I post a comment the spinny wheel takes 1-3 seconds. Today it's taking 45-90 seconds. So I reset my phone, thinking it's just me, but no.

Anyone else having this issue, or is Verizon throttling Lemmy for me?

You are on the biggest instance using software that passes your comment to every other instance that is federated with yours. I'm surprised it doesn't take longer than that most of the time.

To be fair, the federation happens in the background after the posting is done. So just posting alone only depends on the capabilities of the instance you're on.
