[Resolved in 1.0.210] Opening a post seems to trigger thumbnail refresh, creating some nasty lag. (lemmy.ca)

After a post is clicked, it seems that all thumbnails are forced to refresh. (Attached image shown immediately after a click)

Also, what may just be the result of a cache clear, doom scrolling seems to cause a similar lag after scrolling past +50 posts. Thumbnail loading becomes laggy, but not sure if related to the issue above.

When the lag starts, Connect will lag fairly bad for as long as a minute. I have also turned off image preload, but that had no effect.

Side bug, changing the title in the new post edit cleared my first post body.

I have come across this a few times now as well on the latest beta, and as you said it seems to happen after about 50+ posts where all thumbnails just keep refreshing as you try and scroll.

I too had done a cache clear at one point before this started happening to try and address a different issue so it may be related to that.

unrelated but unfortunately, connect seems like wasn't being maintained anymore, and it doesnt have a proper cache management. If you're looking for android alternatives, i would suggest voyager or eternity (speaking from personal experience).

Not looking for an alternative. This issue came from active development and I am running a beta.

Just check some of the recent posts and the dev is still here.
