Describe the bug
Describe the bug
When opening a note in rich editing mode over a slow connection, Notes shows a message saying that loading takes longer than expected and offers switching to plain editing.
If I wait, the rich editor eventually loads successfully, but the warning remains visible for the entire editing session.
Steps to reproduce
- Use a slow or unstable mobile connection.
- Open a note in rich editing mode.
- Wait until the loading warning appears.
- Continue waiting without switching to plain editing.
- The rich editor loads, but the warning is not dismissed.
Expected behavior
The warning should be dismissed automatically when the rich editor reports that loading has completed.
Environment
- Nextcloud Server: 34.0.0
- Notes server app: 6.0.1
- Text app: 8.0.0
- Android: 16

Start by tracing the rich editor loading flow and the timeout warning shown during slow connections. Reproduce the issue with a delayed load, then verify that the warning disappears when the rich editor reports successful completion and remains available if the user switches to plain editing.
