I constantly have new 0 upvote posts and comments pop up at the top of my pages, pushing everything down even when i'm scrolled down on the page. Painful to read. What's going on?

There is an open issue about that. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3008

*even when sorted by hot or top/day

It is very mathy but here's the algo they use to rank content: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/contributors/07-ranking-algo.html

Might explain a bit of why things are at certain places for a time.

I noticed this as well, it makes the web app almost unusable when sorting by all.

It doesn't happen on the mobile app (Jerboa) tho.

Go to settings - Sort type - choose Hot (or anything other than active)

@ruud@lemmy.world Do you know if there is a solution to this problem? Or is this a Lemmy standard feature?
