Seems kinda broken when sorting feeds. A bunch of fresh new posts load from the top regardless of sorting method after a few seconds. It pushes down stickied posts too, which suggests to me this isn’t intended behavior. It’s much worse when viewing all federated posts since those tend to come in quickly. Ideally it would only do this when sorting by new, and only if the user hasn’t scrolled down.
This is only gonna get worse as Lemmy becomes more populated, so if there’s a way to just turn that off entirely, that would be great.
I think this is already “fixed” by lemmy, or will be fixed soon. The newest versions of the frontend and backend should disable some of the websocket stuff to prevent this.
I second turning it off; this is going to cause needless load on what will become an overloaded site as popularity soars. We can hit reload as needed.
