I have had my 200mm Fall line for a couple seasons. The first couple months the post performed flawlessly then it went down hill from there - mainly slow or not reaching full extension. Lubed the main head seal probably 1/2 dozen times. Now the post requires air every couple rides. I don't know if I want to invest anymore money into this post - spent over $400 for original purchase.

Read reviews and have looking @ Bike Yoke Revive or Fox transfer? I thought about the One-up V2 but seemed to have issues when it was released.

I have a fall line R dropper but have yet to use it, it's for a upcoming bike build. In reading about it I found out about their brake reset. Could this be your problem?
Never had any issues w/ the brake or slipping only sluggish or incomplete returning. I did contact 9point8 when the post was under warranty, for an issue I thought was clear cut, they were not able to offer any resolution. Paying $400 for a post then receiving mediocre support was a let down.

Bummer. While I know folks who have had no issues with their Fall Line, the complaints I do see are pretty disappointing. I just want 9POINT8 to throw a cartridge into their Made-In-Canada tubes and adjustable saddle hardware and ditch their proprietary brake and seal mess.
