It follows through in exported PDF.

InDesign v15.1 slow to open and poor performance generally
Another decrease in performance between v15.0 (whcih was already very slow compared to v14) and v15.1 on Windows 10 x64 with a very high-spec workstation.
Particularly frustrating is when you click on the icon in the taskbar to launch the app it appears as though nothing has happened and takes 30 seconds or so before the splash screen appears and the app appears to have launched. By which time you usually tried launching it again a few times!

Adding new facing pages moves shape layers on other pages
I am designing facing pages for a 300 page book layout in InDesign V16.0.1. When I add a new set of facing pages above pages that have existing graphic elements on them, the a few of the shape layers on some of the below pages shift approx. 18 points to the left or right for seemingly no reason. It is not all of the shape layers on all the pages, it's just one here and there, and sometimes it's text layers too. None of these elements are grouped with any others, and they are not Master Page elements. It appears…

InDesign crashes and content disappears
InDesign sometimes crashes when saving, packaging, or exporting a file. It then corrupts file, removing content (entire text boxes are now empty). This is destroying files and setting me back hours in my workflow.

InDesign non-functional
On launch, the usual "credits / ideas / new features / splash" page has a problem: See screenshot attached. It is blocking all controls and prevents using InDesign at all. It has no collapse button and isn't even rendering properly.

Styles for buttons and forms
It would be nice to be able to create styles for the buttons and forms so you don't have to manually adjust it when your document has heaps of the same fields.
Even just being able to change the default settings would be useful. I have to waste so much more time having to manually change each field setting.Who decided that Minion Pro, 12pt and scrollable was what people wanted?
Also, why would a checkbox by default be checked, most of the time you want a checkbox not to be checked when creating a form??3 votes -

hyperlink conflict when exporting epub
Indesign 16.01
manual back-linking of endnotes: since indesign does not generate back links from endnotes in exported pdfs (unlike in epub), I made a manual backlink by defining a text anchor on the endnote reference in the text and hyperlinking the number of the endnote to that anchor.
After doing this however, if i then try to export as an epub it seems the manual hyperlink causes a conflict with the epub export, which results in the program freezing indefinitely requiring manual shutdown by ending task in Windows (10. 20H2)1 vote -

Scripts
When I updated to InDesign 2021 (V 16.0), all my custom scripts and their associated keyboard shortcuts were gone.
I had to go into my Applications/Adobe InDesign 2020/Scripts/Scripts Panel folder and copy them over into that same folder in the InDesign 2021 folder.
Not sure if it's happening across the board, but thought I'd point out my experience.
Thanks.
