I have tried all themes at this point and disabled almost all their options. My point is that I know some users are fine, that's not the point, point is you shouln't make a feature that is not certain to works on recent high specs computers, if it was free maybe you could argue it, even if my opinion would be the same, I wouldn't bother create an account just to write this comment.
If you search "big box slow" you will found countless of posts and "launchbox android slow" will pop up too. Why does a 50 dollards handheld console on aliexpress can display the images of the game you scroll in 1 sec with a arm cortex and not even 1go of ram and this GUI software that runs on a AMD Ryzen 9 5900HS and 32 go RAM DDR4 will do it in 5 seconds? You have to question it when developing your software imo.
I think it comes to the point that companies always emphasize feature, even if it's buggy, and not user experience. There is a huge benefit to provide the best experience possible even if it's minimalistic, because the whole goal of a GUI like Big Box is that, nothing more. When you trade the experience to put a feature most users don't want that worsen it, day by day you moving away the usefulness of your software.
If it wasn't Big Box maybe you could tell me that Launchbox is more about managing your games library and emulator to have them in one interface, but Big Box is not that, and frankly it was the only reason why I bought the premium. If there was a trial, I wouln't be posting here too, but there's not.
