Hi,

I don't know if this is an issue with sh.itjust.works or with Lemmy more broadly.

When I click on comments for a specific post and then on the back arrow to go back to the main page, I am sent back to the first page (i.e. the one that appeared when I first opened the website). Hence, I have the impression to turn in circles, always going back to the same posts, plus the fee that were posted while I was on the comment thread.

Same thing happens when I click on a post that brings me to a third party site (YouTube, imgur,...). This is kind of annoying.

Is there a way to close the comment section/third party website and go back to the place I was at when I clicked on the link, as opposed to the beginning of new ?

Also, is it just me or are other users experiencing the same issue?

I am using a Firefox shortcut with an android phone.

I saw this behavior on multiple instances. Also Firefox if that is the cause.

I've tested on both Firefox and Chrome(ium) and the issue is the same on both. Refreshing the page loads the correct place.
