New posts keep auto popping up on lemmy.world without refreshing [Edge]
Not sure why this is happening, it's been like it since I came over and it's quite annoying. No matter if it's on All and filtered by Hot,Active etc, every so often new posts will auto feed right at the top and shift everything down.
Is this a bug on my end, or intended functionality? It sucks :)
Same, firefox. I found a smaller instance on 18.0 and now all is good, yay for federation! Migration is mildly painful atm, not as painful as this bug though. Apparently a better profile migration (than just re-searching your communituies) is being worked on, also yay.
I’m a refugee from Apollo at the most recently failed social media place, and this is one of the biggest reasons I can’t, yet, call the Fed I’verse home. If I try to click a post it’s gone before my hand gets to it and it usually slips off the page before I catch up to it.
Same. I’ve been very surprised to see so few mention this problem and I threads where it’s brought up it’s dismissed as a temporary issue or even a feature. It’s been like this for a month on lemmy.world and many other instances. For me it makes it nearly unusable and I usually go to kbin instead.
I see the same behavior in Chrome. I wonder if this is some poorly executed way to encourage users to be active on new posts. I do like that a similar feature auto-displays new comments. That doesn't bother me nearly as much as the new posts.
I think that is a problem with the current back-end version of Lemmy (0.17.4). I belivie that this is fixed in 0.18.0, but Lemmy.world has not been able to upgrade to it, as it is, presumably, badly optimized for larger Lemmy instances such as Lemmy.world.
