Our well is 220 ft deep. And I was thinking sediment too.
We are in southern Midwest, the Ozarks.

Thanks I'll try that. No aerators at all, but I think it's all a come and go. We've already had to fix the washer several times with the rinse timer and purchasing filter screens. Hoping this passes soon! Thanks for the help!

I was thinking the same. But when I pulled the old drain out, it was literally just a corroded drain, and no lever at all. Just a crap ton of hair and blockage.

That's correct. The drain grate/insert was replaced and bam. No pressure. I know it should not affect the drainage and feed, which is odd.
Both hot and cold are low, but only in the bath tub itself. The bathroom faucet is just fine, as well as the toilet.
We are on well water and the well pump was just replaced this past week ( the coupling was busted ).
I have not flushed the water heater. How does one do that?

The faucet wasn't touched during any work. The sediment from the well is most likely the issue
