I’ve been a long-time user of this app, but lately it’s become frustratingly slow on the Mac. I have a new-ish MacBookAir (M3) and iA Writer is literally the only app I see the dreaded spinning beachball with. Even a simple action like right clicking to create “New Folder” nothing happens for *several* seconds. Then the folder finally appears, and I try to click it and rename it, and I have to wait for the beach ball to do its thing. I don’t even have slowness issues with “big programs” like Photoshop and Final Cut Pro, so not sure why iA Writer is such a struggle for my little computer. I had issues last year too with it crashing randomly, and the support team just told me I had to uninstall and reinstall. I did, and that stopped the crashing, but it’s frustrating to be encountering yet another issue.That said, the app is really beautiful, and such a joyous writing experience that I put up with the quirks, or just try to use it primarily on the iPad, where I have none of the pain points I do on the Mac version.
