Is there a way to set an option to manually refresh the front-page feed? When I set it to “All” (or even sometimes to “Local”), I’ll get a constant flood of posts being added onto page, and it’s so fast that I can’t keep up. This happens no matter what sorting method I choose; even “Most comments” will have a dozen brand-new threads with 0 comments drop onto my screen within just a few seconds.

I’d like to use “All” to find more communities to subscribe to, but right now, it’s impossible to use. In the time it takes me to read a thread title, 15 more have pushed it off the bottom of the screen.

    I can’t find the source now but I could’ve sworn I saw a thread where someone said that it would be fixed in the next version of the front end.

      On jerboa I’ve constantly streaming error and timeouts when I switch between accounts. The app is kinda unusable if you use more than one account.

        That’s a shame. I only have this one account but really hope the jerboa devs can get some support on their app building

          Yeh it doesn’t bother me that much. Annoying yes, but not the end of the world. Lemmy devs are for sure overwhelmed because of that reddit nonsense. Pretty sure that many shortcoming of the Lemmy software only shows now with many more users that couldn’t be really seen or tested before.
