Not sure why this is happening, it's been like it since I came over and it's quite annoying. No matter if it's on All and filtered by Hot,Active etc, every so often new posts will auto feed right at the top and shift everything down.

Is this a bug on my end, or intended functionality? It sucks :)

I see the same behavior in Chrome. I wonder if this is some poorly executed way to encourage users to be active on new posts. I do like that a similar feature auto-displays new comments. That doesn't bother me nearly as much as the new posts.

Its a bug not a feature. I hear it's fixed in version 0.18 of the server code, but lemmy.world is still running 0.17 due to issues with the update.

If it bothers you, be patient or switch to an instance that is running 0.18. You can see the version number at the bottom of the page on desktop.
