I have found that if the login redirect is using the default setting (DESKTOP) that it significantly slows down the login process.
To change this manually go to application/config/generated_overrides/concrete.php and around line 19 you should see
'login_redirect' => 'DESKTOP',

Change it to...
'login_redirect' => 'HOMEPAGE',

Just ignore the message at the top of this page that states 'DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE DIRECTLY' since you are able to amend it in the dashboard.

That fixed that, however it crashes in the same way when when adding functionality > Get more add ons

I also in my failed attempts of fixing the issue, I deleted my project and thinking I could reconnect, however when looking to do that it's not showing up in the add functionality

That's because concrete5.org does not respond in a timely fashion when accessing it through 'Add Functionality' (same issue as the welcome page).
The trick is... Don't try to get addons and themes through the dashboard, instead get them from
https://www.concrete5.org/marketplace...
download them to your PC and add them manually to your Packages folder, then you will find them ready to install when you visit the 'Add Functionality' page.

These issues are likely to be related. Both the default login target page and browsing addons are looking for data from concrete5.org.

It could be that your site's connection to your concrete5.org account is not configured correctly.

If you can't get that sorted out, @concreteOwl's suggestion is the way round it.
