Do you actually use Urbit? I just tried it recently and found it insanely buggy and slow (the most basic things didn't work, attempting to join certain chatrooms hung forever, etc.) Wondering what I did wrong or if it's that way for everyone
It is pretty slow, both because it's a decentralized chat and thus things are hosted on normal peoples' home connections across the world, and also just because Urbit the actual binary isn't very well optimized. It's good enough for me, and I don't really expect it to be as good as Discord. I haven't actually hit any bugs in quite a while, actually.
Also, just to have it in this thread, most of the slowness when using Urbit has to do with poor frontend optimization. The network itself is actually quite snappy.
