“rediscover”

A personal history feed, so to say.

I think the web version should push a history point after a lot more actions so the back button doesn't do stupid things. That's one example (push state on refresh) another is push state on open link and on open image, I'm sick of the back button losing state in those cases. Hi @pfrazee.com

many people are saying this

Would certainly help with the reply you had been meticulously composing in the app that vanishes when you switch to another app (to look something up) and then come back and realise that loading screen means all is lost.

Yeah that's one reason why I don't really use feeds like this…

Or the timeless tale of opening an app, seeing something interesting that was cached, and then the feed refreshes

Call it rediscover

Also good for "baby randomly swiped shit while I was feeding him".

re-discover

Love that a bsky team member has suffered the same trauma. We share your pain.

Or accidentally tapped the 'lose your place' button they keep at the bottom left of the feed window for some reason.

Agreed! The only cure for an accidental refresh is when the internet connection is down - probably the only good thing about a lost internet connection!

Or page was refreshed for you. 😭

I’ve said that before — totally agree — or maybe a reverse?

Yessss that happens to me so often

Yes please! How often I have refreshed moments after seeing an interesting post, never to be seen again.
