It’s fast until it’s not. Making a post and then hitting reload and not seeing it can be very jarring for the user. Definitely something to think about.

- nathanmarz 3y agoWhat do you mean? Every post I do shows up instantly. Reloading the page from scratch can be slow due to Soapbox doing a lot of stuff asynchronously from scratch (Soapbox is the open-source Mastodon interface that we're using to serve the frontend). https://soapbox.pub/ https://soapbox.pub/
