…or is the new web interface huge? I’m using Firefox 126 and I’ve reduced the page size to a bearable 90%.

More importantly though, please try this test in your browser of choice (I haven’t tested from a dedicated app):

  1. create a post (for the sake of this test all you have to do is press the “Create a post” button in the sidebar) in any community
  2. Fill the body text field so you have enough text to for at least one press of ‘PgDn’. I’ve supplied three paragraphs of dummy text you can copy for your convenience at the end of this post. Make sure the focus is still in the body text area (you should see the area highlighted with an outline.)
  3. switch to any other tab you have open.
  4. switch back to your post tab

You should see that the page has jumped back to the top. This also happens when you press ‘Preview’ with focus in the text area: the page jumps to the top and doesn’t preview the post! In fact, any time the text box loses focus, the page jumps to the top. Merely clicking outside the text area will make the page jump to the top.

I hope I’ve clearly explained the situation.

Is this displayed in any browser or just Firefox? Any OS or just Linux. Is this a bug or am I the only one experiencing these glitches? Any help/corroboration would be appreciated. Lemmy: the Tupolev Tu-144 of social media!® Thanks.

    It’s confirmed here on Firefox on instance daring.lemmy.fan. You should file a bug on the lemmy-ui GitHub.

    Edit: If you don’t want to or whatever let me know and I will be happy to do so.

      First off, thank you for confirming. Secondly, thank you so much for offering to file the bug report, if you think it’s necessary. I still don’t have a GitHub acct! 🤷‍♂️

    Here to add that, thanks to this jumping-bean bug, crossposting is difficult: once you confirm to which community to crosspost, focus is lost, the page jumps to the top and the post title and any URL are lost. Ouch!

    @oleorun@real.lemmy.fan (or anybody, really), if you do file a bug report, would you mind posting the Github link? Thanks!
