Solana

Been playing with Solana a lot more lately, but price quotes are sluggish, 50% of my trades fail, trades take ~15 seconds to complete, and I have to break my trades up into much smaller increments to get them through. 

Any tips on how to get a better experience here? Moved my slippage up to 1% and that helped.

If its for shitcoins here's the alpha --

Slippage - 20%
Prio Fee - 0.01 
MEV Option Enabled
Bribery - 0.01

This should help you get through 99.9% of the times on all your shitcoin trades. Oh and use Photon, its the absolute best imo. Here's my referral --

You are overpaying your priority fee by like, several orders of magnitude my man...and FYI right now (until at least the 1.18 update for validators dropping in mid-late April, earliest) using a higher priority fee doesn't have any effect on you "moving to the front of the line" so to speak. You can drop it to 0.001

Also you definitely don't need to be doing BOTH bribery and priority fee (as well as the super high slippage).  If it currently works for you and you don't want to change it, by all means, stay the course, but you're actually wasting SOL doing both of them at same time.
