I just created my account on lemmy.world today to match the username I have on lemmy.ml.

When I logged in just now, the screen refreshed with a different users name and icon for less than 1 second and then updated to mine.

I thought that was really strange behavior. Has anyone else experienced this? Any idea how/why this could have happened?

I wonder if it's the same problem I was having yesterday when I opened a bunch of communities in tabs and subscribed to them, and some of the tabs showed the wrong info in the box. (probably also caching)
