Hello,
I tried with the few last AppImages available on download server (stable version) and AFAIK many things improved drastically.
- UI is no loger "laggy" and the application starts really fast after launching it!
- Online sources are back to whatever they were, so all is good now!
- Solved ;)
- With AppImage 46XX and 47XX (currently 4722), the icons are back.
- This comment is still valid IMO, but a minor annoyance.
However, I noticed a small issue with 4722, the transaction entries in the reports are not clickable as they should be (clicking on the date which shows as a URL in blue, does nothing). I have opened a bug ticket: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=509211
Thanks and GOOD work from the devs on the 5.2 series so far!!

But to be transparent, also with 5.1, the app doesnt feel smooth. For example, when I click on a menu in the top menu bar (for example File or Transacton) the menu try doesnt immediately highlight,. The UI feels I am managing a remove server via IPMI........

I have no idea why but I created two sources and configured them, tested them and saved then closed the app. Upon re-launching it, they were still there and working, then after facing the issue #3 below, I tried installing Yahoo currency and my sources were gone.
