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.

The problem with small instances is nobody knows how long they’d be around. I wish there was a migration tool so that if that ever happens you could easily move your account and all the messages over.
@UrbenLegend @zeerooth Not to mention you’re not exactly going to get much content out of smaller instances, especially if you’re coming from Reddit.
And as for bigger instances, you never know if the admins are going to pull some shady crap you may not like. When you get exponential growth it creates problems.
Federation should solve the content issue. You can search for all comments, posts, etc. from other instances that your instance federates with. Just make sure you select “All” in the search filter instead of “Local”.
