Yep, I had the same problem - see my previous post on lagginess in this /c. Force closing and clearing app cache resolved it for me.

Everyone keeps confusing this with a server load issue, which it isn't (or at least doesn't seem to be directly).

I never had much luck with the layout editors, so I just hand edit the JSON. Here's part of my main dashboard (it scrolls on for a ways, but this much was already a big screenshot).

That's pretty clever, I like it!

Doesn't seem to be a server-side related issue as far as I can tell, but the app itself - after clearing app cache it's running much better now.

Thanks, after clearing cache it's much better now - force closing wasn't quite enough.

I use Manjaro, but I run it like vanilla Arch (for example pacman/yay and not pamac). I find this to be a sweet spot for me - rolling releases are so incredibly nice, and Manjaro being slightly slower than Arch is good from a stability standpoint in my experience.

I use ZFS all over the place, including the root storage pool on my home server, which has overall been a great experience with systemd-boot.

Overall it's going well, and experience from both browser and Jerboa is great, especially considering the lack of maturity and large influx. It's been amazing to see how quickly communities have shown up. A couple of weeks ago when I first heard about Lemmy and plans for Reddit subs going dark, I looked at Lemmy and walked away with a meh because of lack of content, and what was here was not my thing. However, throughout the day today I watched the number of communities grow like crazy, with new topical communities popping up every time I checked.

I do think lack of a centralized /c/ namespace makes things confusing for a lot of people, and will result in a lot of topical duplication between servers - even with federated access and searching. I get why lack of a centralized namespace is also a design feature, but it comes at a price, in my opinion, and it'll be interesting to see how it works itself out over time. Just an observation/opinion on my part.

Still a bit early to call it, but it's looking good!

Doesn't help you, but I haven't seen this issue - I recently upgraded to 2023.6.1.

i3 is what I've been using the past few years. I've tried others, but I always end back up with i3 as I've found nothing else to be as simple and efficient for my workflow, with 12 workspaces across 2 monitors.

Thanks. An instant read thermometer helps a bunch, though for me it's steak that I have a lot of trouble getting right, where chicken and pork are easy for me.

I'm cooking drumsticks on my pellet grill as I type this. :-)
