I haven’t had it take that long, but I have noticed that loading time varies between mobile and desktop. Not surprisingly, the more powerful device loads the document faster

Edit: You’re right- it takes like 10 seconds on my phone. I decided to time it

I actually haven’t found it that slow, but I’ve also kept my expectations low. I’m willing to allow some slowness in the initial document load time if it means I get some privacy.

Is that this tool?

I haven’t heard of it before- is it kind of similar to cryotomator?

I haven’t heard of that competition, but it looks really cool.

Outside of the competition, does your team self host cryptpad?

I ended up paying for a subscription- I wanted to support the development + it being E2E alleviates most of my concerns about storing info in the cloud.

Also, I’m honest with myself to know that cryptpad.fr probably has a better backup setup than my Proxmox mini PC + Synology combo 😅
