Cannot reproduce. Are you using a non-default font, by any chance? Does it happen in a new clean user account? It's happened to me on a fresh fedora install. I've updated now and it longer hangs, but freezes for ~10 seconds before loading the widgets. Weird. It's instant for me. on Fedora 41. Looks like it's stuck in QFontPrivate::engineForScript; are you using a non-default font? I'm using Noto Sans, but I believe it's due to fractional scaling. I have it set to 125%, but changing it to 100% makes the widgets load instantly. Interesting. Does it freeze with any other fractional scales, like 1.2x or 1.5x? How about a larger integer scale such as 2x? I tried other scaling factors but it's only reproduced with 125% scale How strange. Thanks for the info. Cannot reproduce. I'm having the same issue, but on 200% scale. If I search for "app", the shell freezes completely to the point where I have to powercycle my system. Is anyone still able to reproduce this with Plasma 6.3.5 or newer?
