I just hopped on today and the site is very unusable right now
EDIT: it seems that this is a known bug and will be fixed in the next release! Thank you guys for letting me know
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3090#issuecomment-1591009865
Lemmy.World is running amazing for the amount of users that is has but when I am trying to scroll, every 2 seconds the post im looking at gets shoved to the bottom, with Lemmy skyrocketing in popularity, having the new posts appear on the front page constantly is making it very hard to browse.
Does anyone know if there is a way I can stop that? Or do we just have to wait for an update?
I want to add that I love lemmy and I will continue to use it anyways! The community here is so much better than reddit and with the protest going on reddit is a dumpster fire of toxicity right now.
Why are people talking about this like this is a bug that can just be patched? I'm reading the comments in this thread, and it's like everyone's talking about a completely different thing. Am I crazy?
It's obviously not a bug, unless you consider "there is no way to turn off auto updates" to be a bug. The GitHub link doesn't mention anything about adding a toggle, though. It's talking about fixing some kind of deadlock in the database that was causing the homepage to stop refreshing. That is the exact opposite of what OP is asking for!
It is a bug, when scrolling your top posts, you are not supposed to see new posts as well its supposed to be only top posts.
Oh, wait, do you mean "new" as in "from the new section"? I thought OP meant it as in "newly created"
I am the OP lol, but I think I may have just worded it weirdly. I just meant that no matter what page you are viewing, new posts appear and pushes existing posts down.
