This is annoying to a point where Playgrounds are basically useless. Happens to me all the time. Best MBP and all the latest versions.

Defeats the whole purpose of Playgrounds if it takes minutes to get them running. Have to quit Xcode all the time.

12-17-2021 Xcode Version 13.2 (13C90) MBP 13-inch,i7, 2017, macOS 11.6.1 I honestly can't believe how after all this years the bug is still there. It is extremely anoying to have to restart Xcode everytime I want to test something in playgrounds

Playgrounds are supremely unreliable and honestly Apple should just shut them down if they're not going to invest in making them more reliable and usable.
