I already have accounts on two instances, but both of them are currently experiencing significant slowdowns. As a result, I'm searching for an alternative instance, preferably one that is not facing any load issues.

Join-Lemmy has actually a nice list of instances, and they do try to take the load a bit in mind. Many people seem to switch to lemmy.world now, but that could mean you could face more stability issues in the future gain.

Beehaw.org also looks like a nice instance. They host a lot of popular communities, but they do require an application to join. That would probably keep them safe from getting overloaded.

It's worth keeping in mind that Beehaw defederated from lemmy.world and lemmy.ml today, so you won't see posts from either of these instances if you choose to go with them.

They did? What's the reasoning for that?

EDIT: Nvm, found the post: https://beehaw.org/post/567170

That's ridiculous. If people are that sensitive and need to feel absolute safe to post some shits on an anonymous platform, then they shouldn't use the Internet at all.

You’re saying that everyone everywhere must always listen to everyone else at all times even when they’re being dicks, and anything less makes them pussies and they shouldn’t be allowed to communicate at all?

If they have a strong community and want to cut ties with some others, that’s cool they can do that. That’s the system working.

The fuck are you on? If you see contents you don't like, simply downvote or ignore and get on with your life, not isolation themselves, defeating the purpose of a fediverse, just so that they can have a wholesome 100 echo chamber.
