Is there a way to keep the "hot" page from auto-updating in desktop browser view?

Tried clicking "hot" since "active" got a little stale. Saw a few interesting links, but before I could click anything, they all got pushed down by a dozen new links. Is there a way to freeze it until I refresh?

Fyi the jerboa app doesn't have this issue for me. I installed it out of desperation, and it's actually very stable. You might want to consider using that until the fix comes in.

This is a bug which was already reported on their github page. I don't have the link to the bug report on hand right now, but they're working on it

I don't think we've figured that out yet. It keeps you on your toes for sure. Neat to see all of the activity, but it does make it tough to get the cursor to what you want to click.

It's outright impossible for me now. It seems like it'd be less drag on the servers to only update on page load/refresh.

I've seen a couple of people mention this already, so I imagine that it's on the list of needed QOL improvements. At least I hope it is.
