So I don’t know if this is a Beehaw problem or a Lemmy problem but multiple posts from a community start populating from the top of the page, seemingly ranging from the latest post to the oldest.

This happens in both Hot and Active and lags the page as well. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Seen it a couple of times, I suspect it’s a Lemmy thing, something like: whenever your instance starts federating a community on another instance —likely because another user on your instance just subscribed to that remote community— the server starts pulling in posts from the remote instance. Those are simply (wrongfully?) injected at the top of your page as they flow in.

    It happened to me on a PC browser. After clicking on a post, I hit the browser back button. The top of my “all” feed reappeared with ~20 posts from a single smallish community on another instance. They weren’t there before. Scrolling down, the previous feed resumed, so it seemed like those new stray posts were stacked at the top of my “all” queue.

      the situation with thread links is pretty bleh. I’m on beehaw, so I don’t seem to be able to easily just click your link and participate, because I’m not logged into feddit.de

      edit: and when attempting to post this… somehow half of the context (including the post at the top) changed to the new post about the update to beehaw.

        Yup the situation is not ideal. The lemmy devs are happy that it’s working at all I think, it’s all fairly new.

        You can always search for a link like this on beehaw. Then your server will look it up so you can see the post and participate :)

    Yes, happened to me as well. In my case it was posts from a tech-related community.
