    A couple times I’ve clicked a post and a completely different post opened. The latest one was a cat pic I was going to show my daughter and porn opened instead. I’m not subscribed to any porn communities and there weren’t any porn posts in the list on my homepage. This is a real problem. I went back and clicked the link and it worked as expected.

    Also, as I was typing this comment, the main post I was replying to changed, but the comments stayed the same. Weird.

      I hope all the weirdness is over when they remove websockets and replace it with http. That will be in 0.18 I’m sorry for the unfortunate situation…

        Thanks. Not a huge deal for me, just a little uncomfortableness, but I assume it could be a big problem for someone browsing at work.

      Thanks for mentioned that. I thought I was mis-clicking, but I think I’m experiencing the same thing you are.
