i get it occasionally, but when i do get it it makes post composition nearly impossible and im forced to use a third party app. i have literally no idea what’s causing it. i feel incredibly bad for cohost staff because this has gotta be the most hellish bug i’ve ever heard of, since this is a widespread bug that’s commonly reported, doesn’t seem to happen at all on the devs’ computers, and has no specific causes outside of “sometimes when i open a modal the website runs like shit”

Yeah, definitely. The fact that it seems like it doesn't always repro is the weird part?

If you're seeing it, definitely vote it up or leave a comment - more info on how widespread it is is good IMO

i would kill to get to look at the modal code. i don’t think i’d be able to solve the problem (or even understand how it works) but im just so curious how the code works if it causes a problem like this

it works pretty smoothly for me on my iOS PWA and firefox desktop (macbook air 2020). can i ask what version of iOS/macOS you’re having the issues on? i wonder if it’s because i’m a notoriously late updater and i’m always at least a couple versions behind the latest one and it’s a recent OS-specific issue (though the ticket being months old says otherwise)

I'm running iOS 17.2 and macOS 14.2. Looking at the report in the forum, seems like it's been happening for at least ~7 months, so not sure what version I was on when it started.

for me at least, it started when they switched to the lightbox posting form. the double-lightbox alt text editor has it even worse, so maybe there's some exponential refresh being triggered by the lightbox styling?

ok so i logged onto cohost on my ipad because it's the most up-to-date machine i have (17.1.1) and, yeah it's definitely lagging out, so my hunch is it's an issue with more recent versions of apple OSes. doesnt explain why staff is having issues repro'ing it unless theyre also using outdated OSes but still
