Fortnite news - is it my PC or the servers?

I've been playing Fortnite since Release, always with a lot of fun. Anticipation; It's not about the current situation regarding the players, the content, the season or the like. It is all irrelevant.

My concern in the question: Fortnite lies with me the death. I had zero problems in Chapter 1, Season 1, good ping and constant 40-50 FPS at low-medium settings. In Chapter 1 Season 2 I still had 60 FPS with medium settings, but of course the game became graphically more demanding, etc.

But this season I have huge problems. Very long waiting times before the start of the round (spawn mostly only in the battle bus), in-game my skin does not load (always default skin), symbols of the weapons are not shown to me in the inventory and whole textures of places are spongy. When I want to enter a house, I just lie / hover over the floor, nothing works. If I want to dance, the character stops and I can't move it for 1-2 minutes. The same thing happens sometimes after the revive. The FPS number remains at 40-50 Fps. If you land in more remote places, the skin and weapon symbols will load at some point, but as soon as you go back to places (Lazy Lake, Misty Meadow…) they will not load, making the game almost unplayable. In the fight and sometimes with higher animations, the sound also cuts out.

For a few weeks now I have only heard the music in the lobby (!).

Is that because my PC has now gotten too bad after a good 2 1/2 years of release, or are the servers currently overloaded with Corona or too heavily used because the FPS values actually remain the same. I often see a red line in the in-game broadband connection display, or a yellow line. My internet connection is consistently stable in other games. Quite funny: the voice chat is not affected, it always works tadelos.

Do you have an answer to that?

It would be most helpful if you knew your components. I think that, especially in the current situation, the servers are definitely above the normal load, but it is unclear to me whether exactly such errors occur because I would say purely from the bugs that the computer is too weak. Let me have your hardware specs or look at the task manager load when playing.
