Itβs a well known bug. Apparently theyβre working on a fix.
Not so much a bug, but a feature.
A feature that made sense when new posts were suuuper rare.
with sudden influx of thousands of new users, that feature is now a pain in the ass lol
Which doesn't really make sense, because it was clear that this is going to suck once a certain number of users is reached.
I was so happy to see someone else having the same issue and now I'm glad to see that the next update will fix that. My only issue with lemmy: about to be solved.
Yeah they're planning to remove the websockets thing that makes it update on the fly. It used to work at a snails pace but not now π
Real-time updates are really cool but layout shift every second is not. New posts could stay hidden behind a βsee N new itemsβ until you click.
These updates could scroll on a floating sidebar on the browser that could be minimized/hidden. Not sure on mobile apps.
