Very slow app launch on Arch&Hyprland.

I've got fresh Arch install with archinstall script & Hyprland, however, my apps, like telegram-desktop, are launching 5 seconds, which is way too much time, remembering last time I had arch it was instant launch of these apps.

I have these lines in my hyprland.conf, as suggested on Hyprland documentation:

exec-once = dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd WAYLAND_DISPLAY XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP # for XDPH
exec-once = dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd --all # for XDPH
exec-once = systemctl --user import-environment WAYLAND_DISPLAY XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP # for XDPH

I also have these packages installed

❯ pacman -Q | grep '^xdg-desktop'

xdg-desktop-portal 1.18.2-1
xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland 1.3.1-5
xdg-desktop-portal-wlr 0.7.0-2

And no entries on journalctl

❯ journalctl -u xdg-desktop-portal -u xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland

-- No entries --

Can someone help me fix this problem? It gets really annoying, thanks in advance

Re: Very slow app launch on Arch&Hyprland.

The dbus timeout is 25 seconds, not 5.
telegram-desktop sounds like it's xwayland? Check whether all "my apps, like telegram-desktop" are actually xwayland clients.
