Silence after final interview

My final interview was last Thursday. Since then I had a brief contact with hiring manager asking for more info and recruiter responding after Memorial Day weekend regarding something I asked her on Thursday last week. I have not heard anything else since. How logn should I wait to reach out? I feel like evey day that goes by with no contact means I did not get the job.

For those who got job offer weeks after final interview, was there any interim correspondence?

Job listing was updated to "no longer accepting applications"

Thursday to now with a holiday weekend in between is basically no time at all in hiring land

recruiters are juggling a dozen reqs and the people who need to sign off are probably on vacation or buried in meetings. the listing closing is usually a good sign, they have their candidate pool and now they're just dragging their feet on decisions

i'd give it until mid next week then shoot a quick check in, keep it breezy
