Recently I’ve been seeing issues where I click on one link to an article on Lemmy and it goes to a different one than I intended. I thought this was related to the random loading of new articles on the main menu, until I got redirected to a Red Sox article on the read replies page - when I didn’t post on a Red Sox article to warrant being replied to.

    And now I got redirected to an article about Rangers @ Yankees baseball despite clicking on nothing of that sort.

      It seems like I’m being redirected to articles I didn’t click on, I clicked on a Kingdom Hearts article on my replies list and I hit a Red Sox article somehow despite not posting on Red Sox articles yet.

    Most likely websockets issues similar to what is described in https://lemmy.world/post/15786

    Lemme v0.18 moves away from the buggy websockets API and should address this, and will be rolling out on lemmy.world “real soon now”.

    Same issue and I think it was the Red Sox article actually

    I’ve just noticed if I refresh the page the correct article loads. So it’s getting confused somehow and loading the wrong article at the right URL, not getting confused into redirecting you to the wrong URL.

    I’ve had links that Ive clicked on and instead of taking mee to the correct page, it takes me to the front page of the website. Several times with Mastodon links, and a few times with bligs, news sites etc.

    This has happened to me too. I also had what seems like a related bug where the comments auto-refreshed and included comments from a completely unrelated post.

    Also noticed that posts for communities are not loading properly. If I open a community, go back, then open another community it’ll show the posts from the first community opened. I have to trigger a refresh to get the posts on the second community.
