my website is awfully slow

[artistwalks]

when i just registered and made my website, it loaded much faster, and speed page checkers showed higher results. like from germany it showed 4, 5 seconds now it is 12 or more.
can you please check what the matter is or is this a result i should anticipate?
my login is: artistwalks and website i an talking about is https://elegant.home.kg
it is on johnny server btw. is it a problem with server or it is my website?

That's pretty normal for Wordpress sadly. Poorly written, slow, and also prone to being hacked. Adding extensions tends to make this even worse (Wordfence, Elementor and its clones, and WooCommerce being 3 major offenders).

Cloudflare can sometimes help if you get creative with the rules. Another option is converting the site to static HTML with an extension (though interactive content isn't an option that way), or of course you can replace WP entirely.

Wordpress will also run faster on a VPS, and you won't get suspended for high load like on Johnny. https://heliohost.org/vps/

Regarding, just you or Johnny, it's definitely just you. You can see the status monitor at https://status.heliohost.org/ Over the last week the average response time is 374 ms. If your website takes more than 374ms to 1000ms to load then it's your software or your network connection, not the server.

Thank you so much for your thorough response and your in-depth explanation.
i felt that with everything installed (elementor, Wordpress, etc) the website got slower, but maybe that is also me.:)
have a nice weekend.
