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.

    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

      Also, the giant flood of posts you’re seeing is actually ANOTHER bug that happens as your instance federates with another; look close and you’ll see many of them are actually quite old. Refresh the page and those will disappear

        Noticed this too. Now when it happens I smile and scroll back to the top to see which new communities I get to interact with lol

          I do something similar - I’ve subscribed to a few communities now that have popped up at the top of my feed because I thought “oh, this looks cool”
