I don't have a large database to manage in ClickUp, or any automations worth speaking about, or fancy templates. I'm just a simple power user. Some of us spend enormous amounts of money on our gear to overcome performance issues with localized applications when they aren't optimized.

But we have NO power here. There is NO reason in 2025 with ClickUp's success that this platform needs to be so slow. It was great last year when I was in it every day for hour working with AI, creating CU docs, multiple user types, diagrams, etc... this year, it's been chill, and it take up to 10 seconds to load the app UI on every computer.

This is on a browser and the desktop app. M1 Max MBP and Linux (main daily):
