Reset it to U.S.A. and it's still suspiciously slow...

Sometimes, but with some careful reading and critical thinking, I am hopeful for improvement.

I kid...

I think Couldflare was hoisted with its own pertard.

I figure some of the smarter trolls are trying to sabotage the board with bots and hacks. The rest of the internet is normal speeds.

With a fibre connection - usually very fast. Today is extremely slow with several time-outs. Before I saw your post I assumed it was because it's a busy time of year here. School hols started, football finals on and lots of other stuff.

Looks like it may be more than that.

still slow, glitchy. Have to click many times for anything to open, and then sometimes it opens with one click. OR I get sent to something completely irrelevant to what I clicked on.
