Hydroxide unreliable with Sailfish OS

[ddobrev]

Warning: this might be a problem with the e-mail client of that platform, I cannot tell yet. I decided to write it down just in case.

I use Sailfish OS 4.0.1.48 on my Sony Xperia 10 dual-SIM. The Protonmail Bridge doesn't work there at all, so hydroxide is the only option. I've followed these instructions, and I've able to both log in at the terminal and start the services. However, trying to make the e-mail app built in Sailfish work is unfortunately too unreliable. It takes many attempts to make it connect, for example, last night I kept trying for 4 hours. Today I got to open my mail, and it did load the first page of all folder. But when I tried scrolling down to older e-mails, it started working only occasionally. It seemed to cope better with smaller folders such as sent or specific custom ones with fewer e-mails, but updating my inbox was next to impossible. I only managed to do it once in 2 hours. I do use (Proton)VPN but any web-sites open quickly, so I don't think this is a problem. if there's anything I can do to help, such as providing debug logs, please let me know.
