I have my “All” feed set to “Active” and I won’t even be scrolling or reloading it, all of a sudden 500 posts start rolling in at the top of the feed!

    I assumed it happened when someone on your instance subscribed to a new community for that instance so it loads in all the posts since they are technically new. Definitely a bug

      Interesting take on it. Another bug that I see often is a post with like 5 comments, but when I click on “comments” I don’t see any. Even mine in some cases! I’m not mad, I guess all of it will require some fine tuning to work flawlessly.

    Yeah stuff streams live to the client when it arrives on the server and the client is not putting it in the right place in the displayed list, just dumping it at the top.

    I heard the Lemmy devs are abandoning their whole websocket-based way of having the client and server interact, so that would probably sort it out if it ever happens.

    I saw that too, and most of the times it’s a lot of days old post in a specific community… maybe there are some problems with synch operations ? I don’t know.

      Those are all known bugs. Apparently the active/hot etc. aren’t updating properly after a server has been up for a while. Apparently the dev’s are already working on fixes.

      i’m gunna guess it has something to do with the web socket connecting (from what i can see in the console) and not disconnecting when load is finished, so it just keeps loading whatever new content is available, instead of loading more when the user clicks reload
