how long did you wait on that screen? in how many rooms is your account (roughly)?

I left it open for about an hour, 2 rooms. I just opened it and showed a message: "access token was not found..." closed and opened again and the message was not showed again.

When neochat gets stuck here, it's because it can't get the access token. This usually means that either something about your setup is broken (e.g., no kwallet or other backend for qtkeychain), that the access token was deleted, etc., so not errors in neochat itself.

NeoChat should certainly do a better job at showing these errors, but that's surprisingly difficult :/

So, even if the bug is not in Neochat itself, there should be at least some timeout and then a message, so probably is worth keeping this open for it. Let me know where in the code is this and I can do something about it.
