Your arch system (with xfce, kde or lxqt) suddenly takes 20 sec to open firefox etc? - Feddit

This is a bug I just experienced on one of my manjaro computers. I was puzzled as fuck because cpu/io usage wasn’t high but it was pretty slow. Maybe this will help someone.

I had that happened to me using i3, the fix for me was

Remove/replace xdg-desktop-portal-gnome with the -gtk variant

As stated here bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=286103

[SOLVED] Firefox takes a long time to launch in i3 / Newbie Corner / Arch Linux Forums
