I would really appreciate some #help with #Amethyst, Please?🙏 Whenever I discover a new (to me) and interesting #Nostrich, I like to go to their profile, learn more about them, check their website, make a "follow" decision, and scan through their notes to 💜 and ⚡ ZAP what I appreciate. However (and here's the part I need help with!😮) all too often, Amethyst gets extremely sluggish or completely "locks up" and I actually have to kill the app and restart it. This happens with frustratingly annoying frequency.😜 I keep the Amethyst app updated, and at the moment don't have a way to know if it's the app's fault, or if my phone is just too wimpy, or if there's something in how my relays are set up, or...???😮😢 Any help would be greatly appreciated...🙏💜😁 At the very least, I think Amethyst should be responsive to my user input when I try to back out of the "bogged down, locked up" situation???

Update: I've discovered that the #Iris client on #Android handles this correctly... Instead of bogging or locking up when I'm checking out one of the #Nostriches that crash #Amethyst, it allows me to exit their profile easily and come back later... Now my problem is; do I really want to flip-flop between clients???🤔🧐😮

The app seems to have an incompatibility with some phones, even modern capable ones.

Yes, perhaps; But at least in this particular instance, the fact that #Iris can manage not to lock up tells me that it is an app design issue that can (and *should/Must!*) be fixed in #Amethyst for the sake of its fans, of which I am one.😁

I'm not sure that the comparison with Iris serves any purpose here. It would definitely be nice to have Amethyst working well for everyone, so feel free to dig into the code or offer a bounty to get it fixed.

Could be your phone. My android phone handles Amethyst quite well

Thanks.🙏😁 Surely related to phone design; almost any software issue can be "solved" by throwing more memory/cpu cores/faster clocking at it...🧐🤔🙂 I'm just not in the market for a new phone ATM😜. For the moment, I'll have to be content with switching apps when I want to investigate a popular user. But the coder in me wants to know what's getting stuck "under the hood" that #Iris progammers understand significantly better than #Amethyst programmers do.😁
