Description

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Log in to the browser extension.
  2. Close the exntension.
  3. Open the extension.

Expected Result

Everything loads all at once.

Actual Result

First the search box is displayed, then a second later the "files" and "types" dropdowns are displayed, then 1 or 2 seconds after that the vault items are displayed. Instead of everything showing up at once they load in a cascade and it looks really strange.

Issue Tracking Info

  • I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.
