I'm a bit curious about it taking 20 minutes though, are you on very slow connection?
Premium option is there to have it ready for user adoption. There are not many Premium subscribers yet and some functionality that will be Premium, is available to everyone at the moment.
It for sure is important to optimize the primary use cases and we have worked a lot on optimization. Made a recording with the experience from your profile. There is a few things that will be improved from this recording:
- The initial preload of following profiles will be delayed a few seconds until the feed has loaded.
- The "Following" feed is taking some time, because Nostria implements the outbox model. It goes to each individual user's relays to get their profiles, their posts, media, etc. What can be optimized here though, is rendering earlier when results come back, it's loading for too long and not showing much to the user.
