Same issue here. Shadow rocket’s usually great but lately? Nah.
I found that using a wired connection (Ethernet) instead of Wi-Fi made a huge difference. Also, rebooting my router fixed some weird latency.
If you’re on Mac, Little Snitch can help monitor network traffic—might spot the bottleneck.

OP Reply:
Wow, thanks for all the replies! Didn’t expect so many tips.
Tried the WireGuard thing and it’s way better—why didn’t I do this sooner? Also, switching to a nearby server like someone suggested helped too.
Still kinda bummed shadow rocket’s having issues, but at least there’s workarounds. Gonna test out ProtonVPN like a few of you mentioned.
Appreciate the help, y’all!
