As the title said, I' going through the feed and new posts are adding pushing what I read down, which is annoying, is there a way to stop this?

Very soon (within a couple days) this feature will be disabled, which will also greatly improve performance. You can follow progress here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/1081 For the future, this sort of question is better for [email protected]

Thanks you! That's great news

let us know if you find a way, I'm not a fan of it either

hope we'll get answers here :)

It'll stop soon. The Devs are currently pushing through a big UI rework that changes the way the frontend communicates with the backend. Once that's released and your instance updates, the auto-refreshing will end.

I've found that if you change the Sort Type (at the top of the web ui) to either Hot or Active, it slows down or stops the screen refresh. There should also be a way in your profile settings to make either of these your default.

Still learning it myself, so there may be better answers out there...

It’s a bug. There’s a GitHub issue for it, although I don’t have a link. It’s floating around on here if you look or you could go through the issue tracker.

I use an apk for android called Thunder. This doesn't happen for me.

Just adding my agreement to this post it would be nice to toggle it off or have a button at the top to click when new posts are ready to be loaded

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Change the sort setting at the top from active to something else like Top.

I'm new here as all of us. but if you don't sort by new you won't get the feed being refreshed all the time. you might want to play with the sorting and report back

Yeh, this is annoying. I like to sort by "new", but all the auto-scrolling was about to give me a seizure.
