Is Whatsapp buggy/slow nowadays? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Recently formatted my phone. Reinstalled whatsapp n the imported the backup.
It seems very slow and buggy. After 1-3 mins of usage, the app starts acting up and after a minute or so autocloses.

Has anyone experienced the same?

I'm planning on reinstalling to check whether that fixes the issue. Asking here to see if anyone has experienced something similar and/or has resolved it.

Did it almost 2 weeks ago.

Automatic local backup did not happen, so I used Settings -> Chat -> Chat Backup -> Backup now

I don't have a google account selected in the backup options and the local backup was created.

I've been thinking about reinstalling whatsapp once more, but now even when I click it, it's not backing up.
So maybe it's not allowed now

I think they do create a local backup for uploading to Google but do not restore from local backup.
