I don't know how this works but I think I read somewhere that this version fixes the new post spam on browser, I checked and it's still the same, when will that be fixed? Is it an instance thing?

What does new post spam mean?

I noticed in the web client used on mobile, there would often be new posts flooding in at the top of the page. Maybe a page's worth at a time. I'm still using web client on mobile on lemmy.ml and haven't noticed this since the deployment of 0.18 yesterday.

Yeah, that's been addressed.

HTTP API instead of Websocket

Until now Lemmy-UI used websocket for all API requests. This has many disadvantages, like making the code harder to maintain, and causing live updates to the site which many users dislike.
