Double loading bug (self.photon)

On ... https://phtn.lemmy.blahaj.zone/

the "random" thread loader runs twice.

I am on a slow rural connection so it may not be noticeable in town.

I go to read the first post, then page gets replaced by different posts.

This does not happen on... https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/

I think there is yet another theme for blahaj, but have not tested it.

That's because SSR is enabled. And photon doesn't have access to the Lemmy database completely, so it can't figure out what account you're using until the client fully loads Photon. So what's happening is this:

Server: loads posts with default settings

client starts loading...

Client: takes over server and loads posts client side using the users settings.

This will lead to different posts depending on what sort you use, what location, and if it differs from the server.

Thank you. I switched to alexandrite and changed the colors. And found the messaging.

SSR is disabled on phtn.app just like alexandrite, so you probably wont have the issue there.

I dunno what that means, but I don't have the issue with Alex. I'd use an app, but need pinch to zoom a lot for seeing some details and the ones I tried didn't do that. I liked Eternity up until I needed PTZ.
