I stopped visiting hexbear.net because it is so slow to load. Today i timed it, it took 1 minute 36 second to load the main page. My connection is 24 Mbps, Reddit for example takes less than 1 second to load the main page. Is this a problem on my end? Or is the site slow for other people?

    good points, thanks for the informative reply. i'm on a macbook air that's a few years old, on chrome (which i know sucks, i guess i'm just used to it). connection is pretty reliably around 24/10 down/up every time i've run a test. diethex seems like a good solution.

      huh, I wouldn't expect that bad of perf from a macbook that isn't like ancient, but idk. If you don't love diethex there's mlmym which is a clone of old reddit. Not sure I'd trust logging in through it necessarily but: https://o.opnxng.com/hexbear.net/
