Anyone else find it extremely annoying and downright unusable that the home page (when sorted to get HOT posts from ALL communities - probably other sort options too) automatically refreshes every few seconds and just shifts the contents downwards?

It’s dizzying - any way to turn this off? I can refresh the page manually when I’m done reading through the topics should I want to…

    Besides that I also feel like it has to do with the way lemmy gets new content from other server. I’ve noticed a downpour of post from the same sub on the new feed happening all at once several times now. With some of the posts already being several hours old.

      I’ve noticed the periodic deluge of updates too. I imagine that lemmy is pulling updates at set intervals, causing this. Could be a bunch of reasons to do things this way but it’s not ideal.
