"The server my [Friendica] instance is on is quite slow, often leaving me with a spinning wheel whenever I want to follow a new account. I’m not talking about a 2 second lag - more like 20 seconds at times, or even more."

This has consistently been my experience with testing #Friendica. The feature set is amazing, but the performance of the aging GLAMP stack and the UX of the 'squeeze it wherever it fits' interface leave a lot to be desired. A shame.

The Future of Social is Here: a Show and Tell (part 3: Friendica)

A "show and tell" of my favorite features of Friendica, which has fast become my favorite place in the Fediverse

I never used any of the Friendica features, because I was never interested in replacing Facebook, that I left to use in 2010.

The only point (to me) to use Friendica is the federation with #Diaspora, actually on my stream Diaspora users are the most active ones.

Besides that, Friendica has a better threading mode and long thread by default as Diaspora.
