Losing my place when clicking the tab

[asmaloney]

As of 0.15.0, it refreshes the page every time I come back to the tab, so I lose my place.

• scroll down my timeline
• switch tab to something else
• switch tab back to Elk

It refreshes, I'm at the top & I've lost my place.

Firefox 130.0.1.

also seeing this problem, glad to see it's already been reported.
also ffox 130.0.1.

[asmaloney]

Wow - that's quick!

Thank you @userquin!

[userquin]

Looks like the problem still present on Firefox, using Chrome works.

EDIT: I'm going to move some logic

[jim-davenport]

I am also still seeing this issue on Firefox.

[piebob]

yeah it looks like we are still running 0.15.0 on ffox, and the commit for this fix has not been pulled in yet. this is SUPER annoying, folks--can we get a new build please? :D

I'm running canary in chrome 128 and it's not fixed

Seeing this issue in Safari as well.

it refreshes every time when it gets the focus and becomes very, not usable, slow in Firefox. I've the same problem that when I switch to another tab the app jumps to the first post

@piebob maybe you could try using https://main.elk.zone for now, it basically follows the main branch

[userquin]

We need this PR #2975 (still on review).

oh thank you! that is exactly what i needed.

[piebob]

oh dang, this is also still happening on main, alas.
edit: interestingly, it is only happening if i switch between tabs in ffox. it does not happen if i switch between the browser and another app, as long as i have the elk tab on top.
workaround: put the Elk tab in its own browser instance. switching between two instances of ffox doesn't make it happen! :D
another edit: i lied. it...seems to work ok for a little while but then does the same thing consistently from then on. i am giving up for now :(

[Cragsand]

Present on v0.15.0 (example: elk.zone ) but not on v.0.14.0 (example: universeodon)

[joshuaiz]

Still happening on main in Safari 18.0.

[asmaloney]

It's being worked on. Patience everyone!

You can subscribe to notifications (on the right-hand-side) and you will be notified when this issue closed (i.e. the fix is merged). Then it will take some time to release & deploy.

Thanks!
