Sorry if this was posted already. For anybody out there running the dark theme and encountering slowness and app drawer delay, switch back to light. I was user the dark theme in both hub and drawer and it took at least three seconds to open both. I switched both back to the light and they run and open instantly. Give it a shot if you're having issues. I love my keyone even more now hahah.
Many of us have noticed this same issue. There are other threads about it as well. Definitely a bug with dark mode!
These days software developers know nothing about optimization and efficiency. Dark mode or light mode should not impact performance.
It's not Dark Mode causing the lag. If you switch to light and then back to dark, the lag goes away. It's a launcher bug. I loaded Nova. Much better.
I ran dark against light and saw no appreciable difference in app drawer speed. If there was a bug in the color theme itself, I couldn't find it. Last update package I had was June. Not sure what version of Hub and Launcher it had at the time.
Yes it's been a known issue since launch. Has yet to be addressed.
It's a strange issue for sure. I tested it by switching back to light and dark again. When I went back to dark, it was zippy like how light usually is, but for the day. it eventually bogged down again to snail speeds.
