Has anybody else been having ridiculously long/annoying log-in times on PS5?

Bought the game a few days ago now, its been very fun to play however a majority of my time spent soo far has been having to close app over and over again to finally log in to the servers… currently I've spent the past hour (like I have soo many times previously) trying to get past the main menu and into the lobby.. I have tried restarting my PS5, messing around with the DNS, Closing app and whatever other trial and error there is possible..
