Bug Description
It's funny that you use funny and creative words for the thinking process, but it creates some problems on Reddit. I've seen some posts about it, and I've had the same issue myself.

Some people think that when it's red, it means something dangerous is happening.

Sometimes it shows me the "thinking" status for a long time, and then nothing happens. I checked my internet connection and realized it was an internet issue on my side because it didn't show even a small part of what it was thinking about or what it was doing.
