Info: Watching directory for changes... - not actually watching

[behinger]

Hi!

I noticed this before - but once I have PlutoSliderServer started (using run_directory) - I can add new notebooks, but they are not actually detected.

According to the code that should be checked every 0.5s

PlutoSliderServer.jl/src/PlutoSliderServer.jl

Line 386 in 3dedc4e

sleep(0.5)

But for me it doesnt work.

Note that the sliderserver does tell me at the end:
Info: Watching directory for changes...

edit: just noticed I used SliderServer 0.3.21 -> restarting right now (but takes 20min or so) before I could test again

Hey Benedikt! Can you post the output of versioninfo()? Perhaps BetterFileWatching.jl does not work on your system (it does not work on ARM)
