It was the opposite for me in Australia, maybe because I was in a smaller town. At least in restaurants, if you got there past 9, chances are the kitchen is closing or about to close. Took me a while to get used to it.

The scroll always felt janky here, but on this last version it jumps around the feed sometimes, not sure why.

Isn’t it the ‘custom tab’ setting in the look and feel section?

Specially with posts dynamically reloading.

The back button closes the app instead of going back to the feed for me.

It becomes a app on your phone based on the web page.

That’s super cool! Too bad back in android doesn’t work when it’s a pwa, but it works as expected on a browser and it’s very fluid!

When you say mark as read you mean by open the post or voting, or is there another way to mark as read?

More robust instances will have to defederate instances with high concentration of bots and monitor their own new users. Maybe also implement email verification or captchas
