I feel like it's more stable, but sudden timeline jumps increased.

@apps
I have, but for quite a while already.

Before, the jumps mostly happened around the "load more messages" bars in the timeline. (Not sure how they're called. I use Fedilab in German.)
The jumps used to be pretty bad, then there were less for a while. Recently they often happen out of the blue while I'm in the middle of reading a post. My tolerance for frustration is pretty high, but sometimes it's hard to find where I left off.

@mullana
If you read messages from older to newer ones, this is possible that the app tries to fetch more messages when scrolling up (there is a threshold that triggers this fetch). Maybe the jump appears when new messages are received. Before investing more, is it how you read your timelines?

@apps
Yes, older messages are at the bottom, and I scroll up for newer ones.

I also think this happens when the app fetches new messages. Maybe some problem with deciding the fix point (Do I stack new messages on the top or bottom of the currently visible posts?)
When the jumps happen, I often have to scroll more than 10 messages back to the bottom to find the post I was reading.

@mullana
Thanks, bookmarked. We will investigate.

@apps
Thank you very much! :D

(I'm on Android 13 on a Fairphone 4 btw. The old kind of jumps happened on my old phone as well, though.)
