Describe the Bug
I have a folder containing 1800 entries and and when I'm opening the folder the Android app becomes really slow!
Expected Behavior
I want it to be speedy and fluent (as firefox bookmark manager not chromium based ones because those are slow)
To Reproduce
Have a large amount of entries in a folder and try opening it in the app.
If you try to have a large amount of entries in the main folder the app even struggles to open.

Hello 👋
Thank you for taking the time to open this issue with floccus. I know it's frustrating when software
causes problems. You have made the right choice to come here and open an issue to make sure your problem gets looked at
and if possible solved.
I'm Marcel and I created floccus a few years ago, maintaining it ever since. I currently work for Nextcloud
which leaves me with less time for side projects like this one than I used to have.
I still try to answer all issues and if possible fix all bugs here, but it sometimes takes a while until I get to it.
Until then, please be patient.
Note also that GitHub is a place where people meet to make software better together. Nobody here is under any obligation
to help you, solve your problems or deliver on any expectations or demands you may have, but if enough people come together we can
collaborate to make this software better. For everyone.
Thus, if you can, you could also have a look at other issues to see whether you can help other people with your knowledge
and experience. If you have coding experience it would also be awesome if you could step up to dive into the code and
try to fix the odd bug yourself. Everyone will be thankful for extra helping hands!
To continue the development and maintenance of this project in a sustainable way it is expected that you donate to the project when opening a ticket,
if you're not a donor already. You can find donation options at https://floccus.org/donate/. Thank you!
One last word: If you feel, at any point, like you need to vent, this is not the place for it; you can go to the Nextcloud forum,
to twitter or somewhere else. But this is a technical issue tracker, so please make sure to
focus on the tech and keep your opinions to yourself.
I look forward to working with you on this issue
Cheers 💙

i am using git for sync but not able to sync to mobile app, sometimes app is also get freeze. about 400 links (bookmarks), single browswe (Edge)
@BEST8OY commented on GitHub (Oct 25, 2024):
Yeah.
The app has problem with GIT (I can't even setup the android app with GIT)
I had to switch to Google drive
@cyrusyamir commented on GitHub (Oct 26, 2024):
@BEST8OY Does Gdrive sync work two way or on mobile it shows sync bookmarks, links.
@BEST8OY commented on GitHub (Oct 26, 2024):
Two-way
You can add items in the app and sync
@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Oct 31, 2024):
Yep, this is a known issue. It's not easy to fix, sadly.
@daffydock commented on GitHub (May 11, 2025):
Asking just for my knowledge. Does Fluccus search the server list or does it keep a copy locally on the app on Android? I thought it keep a copy locally.
Since I really like your app but I am also worried of saving/putting too many bookmarks on the bookmark app as I concern with the fact that it becomes sluggish and then by extension Floccus. Great app name, by the way.
I made the mistake of going hog wild on the NC Notes app only for the Notes App Devs to later admit that the Notes app can't really handle thousands of notes before it starts crapping out. So now, I have odd sync issues with it.
As I noticed that in another issue you mentioned of a test account with 18k bookmarks. Which seemed kind of impressive.
@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (May 12, 2025):
Yes, it keeps a local copy in the Android/iOS apps as well, just like in the browser. As long as you don't have all your 18k bookmarks in a single folder, but nicely spread across folders, the app should be ok, I think -- it's been a while since I tested it with that many bookmarks, though. With the bookmarks app, the key is to enable caching in Nextcloud, IMO, to speed up the hash tree updates.
