Lemmy live populating unrelated results - nomming RAM
(dataterm.digital)
Is this a known issue, and is there a way to prevent it?
Anytime I'm on the home page for Lemmy (on two different servers) for any amount of time (~30 sec), regardless of what I using as the filter, my page will suddenly fill up with unrelated posts. It causes the Chromebook that sits next to my work computer to fill up on memory until it eventually crashes and makes it obviously difficult to surf without having to refresh the page and re-applying whatever sorting changes I may have made. In the image below, notice that it's supposed to be top posts for the day, yet my page has completely filled up with posts from 2 years ago with no activity on them.
Thank you in advanced!
Closest thing I'm seeing on the Github is https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1279 Which has a dev comment writing it off as a non-issue. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding or somehow I'm an edge-case on two different browsers on two different computers and different filtering combos, which seems pretty unlikely.
I don't think they're 'writing it off'. If I'm understanding it correctly, they think it's been fixed in 0.18, but the code hasn't been pushed yet.
Ah, that makes sense, thank you for educating me!
