Recent breakage to the app. I can only go down 30 or so posts before it just stops. Frustrating as all hell, because refreshing the feed returns me to the top and then I scroll to the same ending point.

I have been seeing this for months and have been trying to figure out the “why”. So far, it’s totally random and I really want to help figure this out for the dev.
What is your phone and OS? Can you do anything to replicate the issue? Does it happen at a specific time of day or on a specific instance? My time of day theory has to do with the ebb and flow of post volumes, especially if you browse c/all. I keep meaning to see if there is a similarly between posts where the feed “jams” and that could be instance related.
Does the feed jam on image, text or website posts? Are those posts from any specific user?
Does clearing app cache help? Does it delay the problem or make it worse? Do you notice excessive spinners when the app is trying to cache post thumbnails?
The issue started when the dev was doing work around the infinite scroll and experimenting with cache, I think.
