Gmail not working properly...?
« on: June 06, 2020, 11:59:37 PM »
Gmail isn't working properly for me. When typing an email it stops and then tries to catch up but causes a ton of type-o's. Slow to load up and slow to respond to actions like move to a folder or delete. Been going on for a few days now. Anyone else having this issue?

Same here, i was thinking it was my computer at first, but after trying it on a different one it seems like its a problem with gmail. Im kind of surprised to see something like this from google.

Have you tried restarting, clearing cache, incognito mode?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

I tried all the above besides completely clearing cache. I did clear all the cookies and site data for Gmail, though.

No.

Tried after restarting and on a different device (which should be the same as incognito, i think). Honestly it didnt bother me too much, just now that i saw someone else had the same issue i thought of it.

Mine is pretty bad. Close to totally dysfunctional.

It doesnt take me more than a minute to load and after that it works pretty smooth

I tried clearing cache minus history and it may be a bit better but is still problematic...Is deleting history going to make a difference?

I doubt it. Are you maxing out your RAM/CPU? I find that gmail gets grumpy when that happens.

nope
idk then. Unless an extension is messing with it, but incognito would rule that out.

The problem persister after removing the unnecessary extensions but resolved after deleting entire cache including browsing history. Seems a bit odd but is what it is.
