app reloading (lemmy.world)

For the android app... Is anyone else having an issue with the app reloading after leaving the app and coming back? I can open my task switcher and go use another app and then when I come back, everything reloads. Trying to see if it's the app or just my phone being aggressive with the ram.

I also have a phone with shitty RAM management, the only workaround I can think of is that Voyager keeps alive longer or saves your position in the feed if it needs to reload... Other clients that I found to be persistent in the background are: Sync for Lemmy and Summit.

I could be in the middle of typing something and go to another app to look at something ... when I get back, it's reload city. Lol. Everything that I was typing is gone.

Yeah that can be frustrating, and this could not be entirely because Voyager but shitty Android RAM management, or the ROM you are using.

When I feel like the app would reload (or when I have written a lot of stuff) I usually save the content in the clipboard just to play safe 😅

Not the best workaround, but it is better than nothing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
