JupyterLab remains barely usable due to a variety of glitches

First off, a sincere thank you to all JupyterLab contributors for the amazing (and free) product, which has made life better for many of us. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Unfortunately, for the last 6 months or so, I’ve had one bug after another which has critically disrupted the usability of JupyterLab. These included:

So… for months I’ve not been able to use the interface smoothly, with basic cell operations working as expected, and without everything taking twice as long due to these workflow disrupting issues.

Many of these were fixed reasonably fast, and I’m also aware that the complexity of these issues is certainly far above my head, and running a project of this scale must be extremely challenging, so again I’m very grateful for that.

But my question is - is there anything that can be done to stop these kinds of issues making it into releases? Is the project reaching a complexity whereby additional testing would be helpful?

P.S. apologies for the provocative title :laughing:
