When I’m browsing I often get interrupted and have to put my phone down. Or I read one post, go back to the main and it refreshes. Often, I recall a post I wanted to read next, but on refresh, it’s just gone.

If I try to search to find it again, I can’t even get the post to show up there. I even use a word that was in the title, to no avail. Oddly enough, if I go to a different instance, I can see the thread/post again, but here on beehaw, it went poof.

Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have ideas on what is happening and how to stop it?

Thx!

You can make a login for another instance and still use beehaw through that

Might be the best solution.

Yeah. That’s what I do when a post goes poof. What’s odd is that I posted this when a post vanished in me this evening. After posting my question, I went back to the main page and there’s the original post in question was again. Weird.

I’m going to chalk it up to growing pains. I do see the pages refresh while I’m browsing and it’s a little disorienting, but as long as the content doesn’t poof on me, it’s cool.

Go to settings, and make sure "show seen posts" is selected.

Omg. I didn’t even notice that. No wonder some posts were disappearing! Thank you!
