I don't know how this works but I think I read somewhere that this version fixes the new post spam on browser, I checked and it's still the same, when will that be fixed? Is it an instance thing?
The instance has to be running the updated version.
What does new post spam mean?
I noticed in the web client used on mobile, there would often be new posts flooding in at the top of the page. Maybe a page's worth at a time. I'm still using web client on mobile on lemmy.ml and haven't noticed this since the deployment of 0.18 yesterday.
Yeah, that's been addressed.
HTTP API instead of Websocket
Until now Lemmy-UI used websocket for all API requests. This has many disadvantages, like making the code harder to maintain, and causing live updates to the site which many users dislike.
