Search on this server is really slow (lemmy.myserv.one)

Compared to other servers it takes a long time for search results to come back. Is there any way to speed it up?

No not really. The server is a $15 month server. On the plus side it has no danger of being shut down. On the bad side its slower than some servers.

If you use voyager app its faster as it goes via the api. You can try that.

Ah, I'll keep that in mind. I'll give it a try if I need to do a search in mobile. I typically do the searching on Desktop, so I'll probably just have to wait a bit for the results, but I'm fine with that.

Problem I have seen is some lemmy servers spend a lot each month - eg 100-300 per month on hosting - and while obviously things are faster, when donations dry up then they get shut down. This is disruptive to users. This server is fully paid easily by me each month so this is not a danger. Is that better? Maybe, depends on your outlook. Stability vs performance. Maybe one day we will be big enough to upgrade. For now this is working.

That's totally understandable and pretty forward thinking, to be honest.
