Possibly indirectly related: #204 ... but probably only in the cases where:

• NetworkManager could detect poor or incomplete network availability
• ...or the code is structured defensively for resilience against server timeouts/latencies/etc.

Thanks for raising this issue!

I believe after #232 and #235 this should be somewhat fixed, let me know if it didn't and I'll re-open this!

(context: it's not network related but a combination of some expensive sync operations, un-optimized widgets and use of not-so-efficient methods)

Might have to re-open scroll is still a little laggy using a touchpad to scroll posts.

[nekohayo]

That's probably issue #267, rather.
