#NewUsers Welcome To Mastodon
I'm sure you have noticed that Mastodon is running very slow today.
Well, it is your fault. Just kidding. It is great to have you here!
Be patient. This is not normal.
You did not join a slow server. Mastodon is not broken. The entire system is adjusting to the huge influx today. This happened with the last wave too. It will get sorted out.
What you will find here is a better social network. Give Mastodon a chance to adjust to your arrival.
