Is anyone else experiencing slowness in opening Gnome apps like Nautilus (lemmy.world)

I'm getting a noticeable delay. It used to only happen when I opened something old I rarely accessed, but now it happens in most Gnome apps. They are fast once they load. I don't know if there is something happening with encryption or compression, or if it is my drive's wear. I'm not really sure how to diagnose this one in a meaningful way. On Workstation 42 mostly defaults and from an upgrade path since 36 on this machine IIRC.

I haven’t experienced anything weird when I used the old MacBook with Fedora 42 today.

It might be on your side.

Is it with every app?

It appears to only happen with Gnome native stuff compared to what I experienced in the past. Everything else I load is either flatpak stuff like FreeCAD or compiled and scripted stuff I launch from the command line. If I open the calculator or nautilus it takes somewhere around 1.5-2 whole seconds before it opens. It is enough of a pause to return from the dock view and wonder if I actually clicked on the thing before it pops up.

It could be an issue with dbus not starting properly. Check to see if dbus access is timing out.
