Lag and Crashes

I never, EVER (super rarely) crash. And keeping all specs on bare minimum usually keeps the game running at an acceptable pace. However, these past few days, even on min specs my game is lagging, throttling, etc. all the technical things that can happen when a game is "slow". And just now, I crashed. I never crash. But these past few days have just been horrible--and it isn't just me.

Edit: This is new. I just tried logging back in again and after an extraordinarily long loading time, this happenedhttps://imgur.com/a/sEk5vI actually waited a bit before taking a screenshot, so this has more things loaded in than what I was a few seconds ago looking at. There were no green names for awhile (only teal), and I could see people moving around but not any moving animations. Like, people were statues that hovered around.
