Not sure why this is happening, it’s been like it since I came over and it’s quite annoying. No matter if it’s on All and filtered by Hot,Active etc, every so often new posts will auto feed right at the top and shift everything down.

Is this a bug on my end, or intended functionality? It sucks :)

    I think that is a problem with the current back-end version of Lemmy (0.17.4). I belivie that this is fixed in 0.18.0, but Lemmy.world has not been able to upgrade to it, as it is, presumably, badly optimized for larger Lemmy instances such as Lemmy.world.

        0.18.1 isn’t out yet. The 4th release candidate was tagged 7 hours ago (with the first RC being tagged 2 days ago). It took 8 RCs and 18 betas for 0.18.0 to release, though that was a much larger update.

        AFAIK, the biggest issue with 0.18.0 is that CAPTCHAs were removed (for accessibility reasons) which many instances with open registration, like lemmy.world, relied onto help combat bots. 0.18.1 is supposed to add support for the fully automated mCaptcha (which just needs to do a bunch of math in your browser). Whether that is sufficient to fight bots remains to be seen, but that is what some instances are waiting on.
