I have been using Canvas since 2012, of late it has become so slow and it's frustrating my students. I can't afford to switch to another platform. It's worse on Microsoft browsers (Microsoft Edge 42.17134.1.0), on Chrome (Version 69.0.3497.100 (Official Build) (64-bit)) and Firefox it sometimes fails to load.
Just to load the screen below it takes ages. It takes ages to open or create assignments etc.
What is really happening?
Chrispin, wow, 2012! That is a while using Canvas! I don’t reguarly use the Free for Teachers versionn of Canvas, but when I do it seems to work ok. Yet, there has been a huge uptick in people using Canvas (and especially this time of the year in the US), so I wonder if that has anything to do with it. My recommendation is to contact Canvas Support and see if they can offer any suggestions of things that would help. To contact support click on the Help link and Report a Problem.
