New on Steemit.com, is it incredibly slow in the Netherlands?

I just started my account on Steemit as I'm very interested in the way the platform works, where content is appreciated directly by users and providers of the content get paid directly.

I'm not sure if this is me, but the website has super slow loading speed for most pages with content. And errors occur so often that it's not really user-friendly.

Is there a solution for me to prevent these things, or is it just the beta of Steemit?
