I’m still playing around getting my bearings here, trying to explore this still-growing federation. I’ve tried browsing by “New” on both mobile and desktop a couple of times, but on desktop it’s almost unsuable. Any time there’s a new post, the INSTANT it goes up my feed updates, and scrolls down. Sometimes it’s one post, sometimes a dozen.
To me (opinion here), sorting by “new” should sort of be a timestampped thing: I want “new as of right now but nothing more”. If I refresh, sure update me to the latest. But a list that’s live updating as things happen? That’s… not useful to me.
Am I missing something, or does anyone else feel similarly?

It’s a known bug, and it’s being worked on
Perfect, thanks for letting me know! (And now it’s out there for anyone else to know too.)
known bug as far as I know. its actually the federating updates coming in.
Oh, so not just as simple as keeping your own ducks in a row, but preventing others’ from jumping the queue too. Fuuuuuunnnnnn.
it’s both. if you sit at the top you will see brand new posts come in one at a time and then occasionally get a giant flood as a new community gets federated.
it’s maddening. by far the biggest issue with this system.

Yep, this is annoying. And the “hot” and “active” options always show posts from several days ago.
Also when sorting by active, posts jump around whenever you go to the next page, so you miss some posts and see others twice
