What issue do you have?

Since this afternoon the syncing on my desktop never stops. With the new interface I only see the spinning circle and I have no idea whether something is happening or that my system hangs. In the beginning I ignored it and went on with my work. Now looking back to what I wrote since then, but the new edits have disappeared!! Joplin seems to work on my android but nothing gets synced to my desktop. Is this a local issue because I noticed the some of the Joplin servers seem to have issues today.
Any advice?
Thanks!!

The syncing finally stopped with an error message:

Updated local items: 1.
Fetched items: 1/24.
Completed: 22/03/2026 19:37 (620s)
Last error: Error: Error: SQLITE_BUSY: database is locked: COMMIT

Solved! See one of my earlier replies.
