[Build: 1861] Limited Download SpeedSince the last two beta versions, the download speed has felt slower than normal because I went into a group public world, and it took me 1 whole hour to download avatars when it usually takes 10 minutes in a stable release. The beta download speed is so slow it fails to load stickers, emojis, prints, and sometimes avatars (loads as an error). Having the download speed be limited is kind of a bad move because most players on the platform have avatars with an average size of 100 MB, and with my 57.4 MBPS download WiFi, it should take not even a minute, but instead it takes around half an hour to download and process, and after all that, it's a 50/50 chance for the download to error out and load as the error avatar. which is quite annoying. My suggestion for a fix and balance is to allow users to choose what they want to limit their WiFi download speed to so everyone can be happy.
