Is there any error in your console when this happens? Can you send a bug report from Settings?

[rghvdberg]

I tried sending a bug log from settings but nothing seems to happen ?
with "console" you mean terminal client ?
only thing I see is

$ riot-web 
Seshat isn't installed, event indexing is disabled.
Starting auto update with base URL: https://packages.riot.im/desktop/update/
Auto update not supported on this platform

The logs you sent contain a lot of:
2020-02-18T08:07:58.952Z E Analytics error: NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource.

and
2020-02-18T07:59:05.865Z E protocols[proto].instances is undefined

Could you use Control Shift I to open the devtools and see which network requests are failing when this issue happens?

[t3chguy]

myself I get a failure on matrix.org so it seems like an outage with them

[t3chguy]

This turns out to be a misconfiguration in matrix.org, I have reported this to them.

[t3chguy]

matrix.org appears to have resolved this.
