⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️
What went wrong, what did you observe?
Previously reported two years ago in closed Issues 3366 and 3785
When you search for another user under the "share" section of a Poll it takes a lot of time and certain names cannot be found.
In a few cases it showes no user, when there are over 25 users with this name.
I was not able to recreate a specific pattern of names where this issue occours.
Appereantly searching for the first name of a person triggers this issue easily.
What did you expect, how polls should behave instead?
Same search behaviour as in files app, where lookup of the same users works without noticable delay
What steps does it need to replay this bug?
- create poll (text or date doesnt matter)
- click on "share" under the poll's details
- Search for different names (preferrably names with many results and first names)
