when I log out and then in (to idk like restart hyprland) my system slows down. Discord and spotify do launch quickly(launched with exec in config on start) but waybar(exec in config on start) kitty,zen-browser(launched with keybind or hyprlauncher) just take ages to launch. Fresh after a reboot or cold boot everything launches with an issue.
I see some errors with xdph and hyprpolkitagent when I run journalctl -b.

I’ve asked in arch linux discord server,hyprland discord server and tried the nuclear option at xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland – Hyprland Wiki with exec-once = dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd WAYLAND_DISPLAY XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, from FAQ – Hyprland Wiki.
I probably made a stupid mistake but I really dont see it. I already asked in the discord server of hyprland and arch linux, neither found the problem.
If there is anything else I can give to make finding the problem easier please ask.
