I think this problem happens systematically when new users fonts have been added. Maybe an incorrect or too slow update of the fonts database. But font-manager definetly freezes, not just waits till some update is completed.
I'am using font-manager version 0.8.8.202402200131~ubuntu23.10.1 (on Ubuntu 23.10) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to font-manager in Ubuntu.
