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.
On my phone browser I just left from the left to go back a page to exit a post I’ve opened. Using the browsers back button does the same. Lemmy itself doesn’t have a back button on its UI that I can find.
I don’t think Lemmy does this on my desktop either. I’d prefer it not reload and allow me to scroll and open the pre-fetched content until I explicitly reload.
I noticed that it works like I described only half of the time. The other half it reloads. Maybe there is some third factor in play. The bad thing is that in that case, there is little you can do to change this behaviour. Except for creating an issue asking if this could be somehow solved.
