Can't even browse because lemmy keeps loading new posts

I can't even browse all because I start scrolling then it loads 20 new posts and I lose where I was. This is so annoying

Fix is coming soon in next patch. Until then I recommend that you show subscribed content and sort by new.

And you can make sorting by New default in your profile settings, for those who didn’t know. It’s definitely helped with the auto-loading.

It's ironic. You either have the same posts on the homepage for a few days, or it keeps refreshing so fast with new stuff.

Let's have something inbetween :)

(Jk, I know it's just growing pains.)

A work-around-ish is to quickly scroll to the bottom and hit next to jump to the second page and start browsing from there. Everytime you hit "next" after that, you'll see some repetition from where the new posts loaded and pushed content down, but it's not a live update like on the first page.

But yeah, they really need to push the update out that fixes this problem.

Yeah, it’s getting fixed in the next release. Apps handle it better than web. Also sorting by not New helps

Also found that looking at subscribed over All is a better experience, since I've only got a handful of communities that I'm currently subd to.
