Whenever I open the Makecode Arcade tab, It goes onto a grey screen with the logo for arround 3-4 minutes. I don’t know why. Can someone help to make it load faster? ---

This problem usually happens when you are signed in. I have been doing makecode not signed in and the problem isn’t happening. ---

Kirbob is correct that it can be caused by a browsers internals. If changing to a non-chromium based browser doesn’t help I would point to it being related to you WiFi speeds. ---
