From my admittedly very informal testing Cinny lets you do other stuff while you're joining a room.
If that isn't non-blocking, I don't know what is.
If you need a screen recording, I can make one.
@KaKi87
It doesn't use sliding sync, but it is slow friendly (from what I can tell) and faster than Element.
ElementX is the only one that's faster as far as I know, but it has half the features and only works on phones, so I don't know why anyone recommends it.
@KaKi87
Or just a client that isn't slow.
Cinny is a my favorite (https://cinny.in/) but others like FluffyChat (https://fluffy.chat/en/) are also ok.
No comment on the speed of those other options; Cinny is just weirdly fast compared to everything, and it somehow does it without even using sliding sync.
Basically just use anything but Element and it'll be better though.
