Every time I scroll down a page, after a little while (5-20sec) it scrolls itself up, usually to the top comment but sometimes (I think based on how far down I am) just further up. I don't usually pull out 'literally unusable', but here we are. No problems on lemmy.ml (not logged in). Firefox with normal privacy add-ons on Fedora 38. Have I got something set to evil? Wasn't happening a week or so ago.

Yeah the auto updating content that is jerking the page around is really a horrendous user experience and I am sure lots of people thinking about giving the site a try is seeing it and noping out immediately.

So it's working as intended? That's...sad. Since your comment this page is doing it. Is it browser specific?

[โ€“] RonnyZittledong 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not sure if it is browser specific. I am using Firefox. I would guess that it is a feature from when the site was much less active but now that there are things being added much more often it just makes the site very hard to use.

It's not doing it because content has changed, perhaps because it's checking. I pulled out no script for the first time in agrs, which fixes it but breaks everything else (reply,vote etc) unsurprisingly. Hopefully v18 will fix it. Do you know this is the right place to raise the issue (the bug makes searching problematic)?
