As the title states, when using Lemmy.ml on my iPhone, in the safari browser, Lemmy.ml is reloading far too often. Sometimes randomly while scrolling, but also every time I go back a page. If I am on a post then go back to my feed, it reloads the page. It will keep my position, but on cell signal I feel like this will drastically increase data usage, while also taking sometimes a full 45 seconds to load if I’m not on good reception.
Anyone else experience this? Any suggestions for a solution? Makes the website unusable if I’m not on wifi fast enough that the reloads are less than a second or two, and frustrating even then.
Yeah live reload is a Lemmy feature, specifically a part of the Websockets API. That API is being deprecated so live reload will go away soon.
When going back from viewing a comment I also get thrown back to the top. Not sure it reloads, but I definitely lose the position I was at.
Strange. The position is kept on my end.
Does it reload on clicking your device back button? It does not for me. Clicking the UI interface back arrow does. It still sends the GET requests for new content, but at least you can browse the already fetched content without having to wait through the loading screen.
It happens to me also, I just downloaded the iOS beta client mlem with TestFlight and it seeems like a little bit better experience
