Attaching labels in the "following' list is painfully slow. Anyone else have this problem?

I have been attaching labels to persons in my following list and have found the process to be very slow, painfully so. It has been taking 30-60 or more to attach each label from start to finish. This is frustrating as I have many people on my Following list. Other tasks within FS have not been so slow. Has anyone else had a problem with this process? Is there anything that can be done to speed it up please?


BTW, I love that labels are available to help filter the list. I especially like the option to create my own labels.

    FYI

    .

    I have just started "Adding" the "Labels" to those I "Follow" ...

    .

    I am NOT finding that 'Process' is taking TOO long, maybe a few seconds; but, then, again, I am NOT "Adding" ANY "Notes", just the "Labels".

    .

    It appears that we can ONLY have up to a MAXIMUM of x10 "Labels" ...

    .

    IF, that IS the case; THEN, that is very "Disappointing", I NEED much more than x10.

    .

    Just my thoughts.

    Brett, Thank you for replying to my question.


    I usually don't add a note within the label. So that's not the issue.

    But just about every time I have wanted to add a label, the process, from clicking on the 3 little dots to when the label finally shows up attached to the person, takes about a minute. Today, I was only able to add 2 labels within 7 minutes. Also, the system won't work for anything else while it's "working" on attaching a label.


    Sometimes the label won't even appear unless I refresh the page or totally close it and then come back to it. If I refresh or close the page, then I have to scroll for a few minutes to get back to the place I was working at on the Following list. But unless I do that, I can't continue checking the names because the system won't open the box of information on another person if the label hasn't attached yet for a previous person.


    As far as the number of labels available, I rarely use the any of the offered ones by the system, but have created my own. It sounds like you also prefer to create your own labels. I'm glad that that option is available.
