Is there any way to stop the auto-refreshing of the home page in lemmy? I can’t read more than a post or two before a new flood pushes everything down.
I’m surprised this is the only post I found about this issue when I searched “pause feed”. I understand that it’s nice to see new posts added when you select “new” sorting, but on the other options is doesn’t really make sense.
Unfortunately not. I made a post about it a few days ago and apparently it’s an unintended behavior that will be fixed, it was just never an issue before since there were so few users lol
One of my ideas for a frontend change, something I’ll probably never bother coding, is a scroll maintainer; when content is being added, it looks at what the current “centered element” is on the page, and attempts to scroll you so that that remains in the exact same spot on the screen.
I don’t know how successful or even practical that might be - and it takes me long enough to set up test codebases for my workplace.
