Bug Report

Describe the issue: Lemmy doom scrolling gets super laggy over 400mb memory usage. App ram usage is estimated as I can only see temporary app cache through Android dev settings when the app gets kicked into the background. Memory usage will mostly self-clear, but it takes a bit.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Doom scrolling FTW!

Device Information

  • App Version: 1.0.316 (316)
  • Platform: android
  • OS Version: BP3A.251105.015

Modified Settings

The following settings have been changed from defaults:

  • isNotificationEnabled: 1 (default: 0)
  • alwaysShowInstance: true (default: false)
  • shouldPreloadImages: false (default: true)
  • shouldShowPageNumbers: true (default: false)
  • showFullVotes: true (default: false)
  • defaultPostSort: New (default: Active)
  • nsfwView: hide (default: blur)
  • cardType: list (default: card)
  • maxCacheSizeGB: 5 (default: 2)

(Recommend moving nsfwView preference out of a public bug report. It’s not a huge issue, but it could be a private setting for some people.)

    Thanks that is helpful. The logic in the app is the message is displayed when all posts in a page are filtered out so before if you went to a New sorted feed, saw posts 1-20, then waited and scrolled to page 2 but by this time there are 20 new posts then everything in page 2 would be a duplicate since we’re already showing it. That’s effectively what’s happening just over 10 or 20 pages we’re seeing every post in a next page call and there’s nothing new. I added some logic to also scan the next couple pages but it might not be enough…

      Ah ha! I got closure so thanks for the info! https://lemmy.ca/comment/20235503

      Also, I have been hounding you with this issue for a long time. I can make a note about it (if it gets worse) after each new version release, or just leave it be. My point is if there is a better way you want me to keep checking and/or reporting this bug, let me know.

        I must have missed this. Are there any errors or messaging when it occurs? Just the feed stops loading?

          Just stops loading. The “no more posts” message makes it easier to see now, but prior to that, it would just stop with no errors.

            I made the ‘no more posts’ error a bit more informative as to why it’s occurring. If you see it again in v233 please let me know!
