I'm not sure where to post about problems in the platform, if here or at lemmy.ml but there's a problem that's quickly getting annoying and that's the fact that whenever I choose All communities and choose anything other that "Active" the posts constantly refresh themselves rather than refreshing when I want. It makes it hard to browse and read things.

This is in the browser, mobile or desktop.

This problem is already solved in the next update 0.18. But it's not released yet. On the bottom you'll find current version is still 0.17.4.

Has there been any hints as to a rough time when it will drop? I tried looking around for something and couldn't find it.

I don't know. Could be hours or could be days or could be weeks.

EDIT: Some digging. This commenter mentioned estimates of 1-2 weeks 3 days ago.

It’s a well known bug. Apparently they’re working on a fix.

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Not so much a bug, but a feature.

A feature that made sense when new posts were suuuper rare.

[-] 0uterzenith@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

with sudden influx of thousands of new users, that feature is now a pain in the ass lol

Which doesn't really make sense, because it was clear that this is going to suck once a certain number of users is reached.

Yeah they're planning to remove the websockets thing that makes it update on the fly. It used to work at a snails pace but not now 😂

I was so happy to see someone else having the same issue and now I'm glad to see that the next update will fix that. My only issue with lemmy: about to be solved.

Real-time updates are really cool but layout shift every second is not. New posts could stay hidden behind a ”see N new items” until you click.

In the meantime, have you tried Jerboa (android) or an iOS equivalent? I haven't had this issue on Jerboa

[-] mesamunefire@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Same app works great!

These updates could scroll on a floating sidebar on the browser that could be minimized/hidden. Not sure on mobile apps.
