Is it possible to save the position? (self.boostforlemmy)

Hello, all. Does Boost has any option to save the position I'm currently in? It's pretty annoying when I'm reading some post, need to switch apps and when come back to Boost it just goes all up to the top again.

In fact I know it's possible because I've seen this feature in other Lemmy apps, so I imagined Boost already had and I was just missing some further configuration?

Are you sure your phone isn't simply killing off the app? Because just switching between apps does not change the position for me, only if it gets killed.

You know what? I think you may be right... Boost seems to reload each time I switch apps. But that's funny, because that behavior doesn't happen with Sync, for example. In order to test I'm using both (and a couple of other apps too). Each time I come back to Sync it's exactly in the point I left. When coming back to Boost I reloads and I go to the top of the posts.

Yeah, this behavior is typical of modded Android phones like Xiaomis, where the background app management has been modded to be far more aggressive in killing background apps. Hopefully there's a setting to turn it off.

Not my case, I guess... I got a Samsung A32 and never modded it.
