I get time out on every single post I make and have to refresh the page, also every time I sign in.

the major issues I have with the platform are very minor things but are more QoL issues:

up/down voting on a post or comment doesnt always happen - however, if I open the post or the comment thread in a new tab, I can see that it did occur.
delays in displaying that a comment was successful. sometimes the above method works, other times it doesnt. sometimes the comment will just not go through and I'll give up.
notifications for new messages do not disappear from the top bar when I have read them, I have to refresh the page.

other than that, lemmy seems to be a very stable platform. hopefully 0.18 fixes some of these issues.

What's funny is I experienced all of these issues on the reddit app too

Regarding unread replies, this system is actually better. It does remove the notification if you reply back to that message, but leaves as unread if you don't. On reddit I often got into a situation where I navigated away from my unread messages before I've read them all and lost that list as a result. That was super annoying.

This system requires you to manually mark messages as unread, if you have not replied to them.
