Usually it takes as long as it takes to access configured network resources... Do you have the same issue when you test in a fresh session (see https://www.qownnotes.org/getting-started/cli-parameters.html)?

[ibahnasy]

No, with a fresh session it loads almost instantly.

[pbek]

And if you add your Nextcloud server in the settings? And do you get any errors in your nextcloud server logs? I wait under a second for the settings dialog with lots of connections, scripts and so on...

[ibahnasy]

There is no errors in the server logs. Also sometimes QOwnNotes crashes after opening the settings; it hands for a second, then terminates.

There is no errors in the server logs.

Maybe the Nextcloud API just responds very slow...

Also sometimes QOwnNotes crashes after opening the settings; it hands for a second, then terminates.

I haven't seen that yet anywhere. 🤔

Is there any useful log output in QOwnNotes if you enable the log panel (see Window / Panels)? Please make sure you also enable debug logging in the log panel by right-clicking on the panel and selecting Debug in Options.
