Why YSK: It will start working faster if you give it a sec.
This is a bug in iOS Progressive Web Apps. Your scrolling gets locked to an element that is off the screen. Continuing to try to scroll while it’s in this locked state keeps it in the state longer. No interactions for one second will unlock it.
wefwef are tracking the issue here.
Man, I thought it was just me. It was driving me bonkers! Thank you sooo much for your informative post. This literally is the first post that I saved on here. Truly ,doing god’s work. 🙏
Haha thanks mate, happy to help!
I thought this was because I’m using iOS 17. Thank you! I’m torn between Memmy and wefwef, both are very nice.
How is iOS 17 treating you?
It’s pretty good and my main complaint is that the keyboard is kinda busted in telegram and less often in sometimes other apps. Basically what happens is the keyboard will cover the ui including the text box. It’s very annoying and is why I can’t recommend anyone try iOS 17 as of yet. Beta 3 might be released today so hopefully it gets fixed
Annoying. Thanks for being a pioneer!
TestFlighting Mlem on iOS will give you a much better, native experience for using Lemmy on mobile.
I thought the same until I used Wefwef, have you tried it?
Mlem doesn’t have iPad support yet. The app opens in a tiny letterbox view, with the sides of the screen not usable, so it isn’t currently a good solution for me.
I used WefWef for a while but PWAs don’t feel as snappy on my phone.
Glad you tried it! I’m excited for the rapid development of all of the apps.
I don’t know how much future frustration you just saved me, but I’m betting it was a lot. Thank you!
You’re welcome, future RotaryKeyboard.
Thank you for sharing the link so that we can also track this issue! This is the first time I saw that
You’re welcome, happy to help!
Couldn’t for the life of me understand why this kept happening. Thank you!
My scrolling actually just stopped working with this post riiiight below screen…
Upvoting to save others from that fate.
Hahah so close! Cheers!
Thanks for the info! This is probably the most annoying bug in wefwef right now for me. Good to know the devs are aware and working on something. <3
Oh cool I thought it was my phone being shit.
