So, keep in mind, Lemmy is an incredibly young platform. It's still kinda buggy and it looks like they got caught a little bit flatfooted (which is fair, who would have considered that Spez was this much of an idiot prior to it happening).
It's likely that the project has a number of bugs that will have to be ironed out now that they're rolling at a decently sized scale, and this is one of them. Things will likely get patched up fairly quickly, but it still requires dev time.
I think we need to make the auto-updating feature opt-in. No sense in designing a software that DDOSes itself.
How young is it? I suppose I could look that up.
Look I just wanted to comment on your name okay? <3 Shin Chan!
There's already a pull request to fix this, it's being merged in v18
do you have a link? i don't see it in open PRs and didn't notice it looking through a bunch of the recent merges
I would assume that this would also reduce load on the lemmy servers.
It should, since the clients wouldn't have to constantly ping and fetch new posts from the server, but only do so on demand.

Read faster
Screenshot it before it moves, that way you can read it in your gallery without interruptions
Op can't read Matrix scroll
It's a bug, will be fixed soon.
I noticed it too. As a new (Less than a few hours old as of this comment) user, this is a hell of an introduction to the Fediverse for me.
I tried clicking on this post, by the feed reshuffled before I could.
I can't with this...
I was getting ready to reply and it literally timed out on me! Lol
Also, Futurama!
Happy someone caught the reference!
Also, if you are impatient like I am, consider giving kbin.social a try. It doesn't seem to have the issues that lemmy does, but still has all the same content! (as far as I can tell, anyway)
I believe it's not something you can avoid at the moment. I thought I read something about this being fixed in the next update for the web app, but I don't know where I saw it.
Found this frustrating too,
I started using the app for lemmy because of this. The app is really nice!
Using apps fixes it
The app has its own issues. Every time I upvote or comment I get a timeout error.
What device and what app?
Jerboa for Android
Same here
I didn't encounter these issues while using another instance but lemmy.world.

It's being fixed in the next lemmy update (not just the app), which I heard should be coming next week.
Websockets for when Lemmy was relatively empty, so an auto update would be one every minute rather than a torrent.
@Brainsick lol geocities? wow lol blast from the past. and that's not a bug. it's a feature.
