Hi Guys,

Ive been struggling with Electrum a lot recently, I dont know if this is down the the current state of the Blockchain and Difficulty.

Sending small amounts, such as 0.01 BTC have taken 2 - 3 days before now!

I have had Electrum on Auto Fee's and I have seen the FEE TO LOW message a couple of times.
I have hit the slider to Max Fee which on 0.01 is 0.001, but found that it is still around 25 blocks.

Is it possible to hard type the fee for a transaction, as I dont want to get caught out?

Stuck transactions in the Core wallet are one thing, but not a lot of information online about stuck transactions in Electrum.

Ive been singing the praises of Electrum since I was introduced to it 6 months ago, now Im wondering if it really is the best solution for someone like me, who sends small amounts.

Thanks in advance.
