how can i stop the site from spawning posts nonstop at high speed?

3 years ago by bokudoku to c/lemmy

when i open the page or go into all, posts just won't stop spawning and autoscrolling and i can't read or click anything

am i missing something?

edit: maybe i should add im using edge and windows 11

Also, the posts that are spawned on top surely shouldn't be there, for example I get year old posts spawned on top of my hot page.

Happens with new, hot and active, which are the most useful sorting orders for daily use. Highly bothersome. Luckily Jerboa doesn't have that issue

That would be why I have no idea what anyone is talking about. Good to know, jerboa ftw

I believe this is a known bug called the "scrolling bug" and it's been captured in a screen recording and hopefully officially submitted (saw it in a Lemmy post earlier). I don't know that the cause has been determined, however.

Several post have been made on this bug, it seems common. I even have a video here: https://feddit.de/post/739125

Is that the same thing you're experiencing?

Yeah one time it was like 1 yr old posts all by the same person, too.

I noticed this too. Would also like to know what's up with that.

This is so annoying it happens all the time. Worst Lemmy bug

I found that I only encountered it when viewing 'All > Hot' or 'All > New', I believe. I thought it was someone spamming the server with the same thing to different subs, but I see now that it's a bug.

So for now I stick with 'Subscribed > Hot' or 'Subscribed > New', and I subscribed to a crapload of subs.

I noticed this as well and thought it was meant to be a feature at first. Real time updates and just going with it. Glad to see it's apparently a known bug!

It's happening to me too on Firefox-ESR on Linux

I would also appreciate it if things would generally just stay still and stop updating while I'm trying to look at them, especially the posts timeline.

Hopefully this will come with the work that I know is going on right now to use HTTP instead of websockets in lemmy-ui. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/1081
