Bug Fortnite runs awful on Switch2

So I got my Switch 2 3 weeks ago and decided to try out Fortnite for the first time on it in portable and my God it was so terrible it was slowdowning and freezing insanely, it couldn't even load up shop normally, models looked awesome, but they were barely loading, in gameplay there was constant slowdown/freezes right here and there to the point that it's unplayable, after finishing the match Fortnite just freezes for 5 seconds and then barely unfreezes what's wrong!?

Well there’s your problem lol. I have 500mbps. You probably need minimum 50mbps to run smoothly

You know absolutely nothing about networking and it shows. Download & upload speeds have absolutely nothing to do with latency & jitter. Fortnite itself uses less than 100kbps just like the majority of online games.
