Steps to reproduce the bug

Select the option to load media files directly rather than loading entire folders.

Expected behavior

Displaying media files directly, rather than showing folders, may result in significantly slower loading times.

Actual behavior

Whether displaying media files directly or through folders, it is essential that thumbnails are generated swiftly. Additionally, when new media files are added to the device, both the folders and the individual images should be scanned and displayed promptly.

          I was able to reproduce this problem on OnePlus 8 Pro with over 2300 files using Fossify Gallery 1.2.1. While showing all files at the startup, it takes a few seconds to start the app. I can imagine that with less performant phones it may take more time.

After testing, when Performance mode is enabled for my phone, the rate of loading images directly is a few seconds faster, but it still doesn't refresh new images faster. Is there any way to load images as fast as Aves and other album software?
