The bruteforcing phase uses the wordlist, so that's why I ended up there.
Fern works well in each of the other phases, it just stops part way through the bruteforcing
Are you sure it stopped or are you looking at the redbar at bottom of screen? It may still be cracking just the gui is lagging.
easy to start; hard to finish
