I’m currently trying out the Thunder app on my Pixel 4A. When I open the menu on the left side of the screen, the app always stutters. Occasionally, it also stutters when I scroll through my feed.

    Thunder usually becomes unresponsive and closes itself after I open that menu, I think it might do that because I have so many communities subbed and it tries to load images for all of them at the same time.

      Hey! Just wanted to let you know that I replied to the main post regarding this issue - there should be a fix for this in the next nightly build

    Thunder really can’t handle a lot of subs at the moment. I’m working on an improved subscription manager.

    You might favorite a couple communities you want to regularly visit instead, and access them via the search page.

    Also, I’m unable to vote on comments in my inbox directly. Only after opening a comment by tapping on it, can I vote on it. Tapping any of the vote buttons while seeing the post in my inbox has no effect. Is this normal?

    Hey there, are you by any chance subscribed to a lot of communities? If so, that may be the reason for the stuttering when opening the drawer.

    This is a known issue and I have fix for that in this PR which should greatly improve that: https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder/pull/1452

    Occasionally, it also stutters when I scroll through my feed.

    Do you mind sharing if you have full height images enabled? Generally, having that on is a bit more intensive because Thunder needs to calculate the width/height for each image (as Lemmy does not provide that info directly) - this should improve once Lemmy sends back the image dimensions in their API!

    If you don’t have that option enabled, feel free to submit a new issue on GitHub and I can take a closer look at it. Thanks!

      I’m experiencing the stuttering with full-sized images disabled and enabled. By the way, is there a setting to change the height of images if full-size is disabled?

    Are you running a stock android or a custom ROM?

    I wonder if a power optimization feature is getting in the way.

        Seeing the other people’s post it sounds like a common issue instead of my thought
