My Joplin hangs often

Greetings,
I've been suffering this for quite some time now. Joplin will just stop responding at times for as long as 20 minutes. When I look into my log I see it barely active but the time stamps are as much as 1 40 minutes off.
As I'm writing this, the time is 12:20 pm. Here is the tail of the log right now and the Joplin Desktop 2.7.12 is unresponsive. Can someone please help?:

Can you try disabling "Untagged" plugin and see if that helps?

OK, I've just done that. Now I've been waiting for over 4 minutes and counting for Joplin to boot. It's still on a white screen. Last line of the log has been on:

2022-02-22 13:24:58: "ResourceService::indexNoteResources: Start"

the next line is:
2022-02-22 13:28:26: PluginService: "Loading plugin from /home/iomari/.config/joplin-desktop/cache/io.github.jackgruber.hotfolder"

look at the time difference. 4 minutes

Ok, how about to return to the stable version (2.6.10)? once the functionality is restored we can try to figure out the reproduceable behaviour causing the hang.

I didn't know that my version wasn't stable. I have a habit of always trying to use the latest versions:. Is the whole 2.7 branch marked as beta?

yep, 2.7 is in beta as of now

I'll downgrade now and see if there's any improvement. Thanks.

Or try without any plugins at all
