How do I disable the live feed on the front page? (lemmy.ml)

I noticed that if I am on the main page for Lemmy, it has a websocket open and is constantly refreshing with new posts. This makes it impossible to use if you look at all new posts as there is a ton of content flooding in. That's not a bad thing, but it does make it impossible to read what's there.

Is there a way to disable the live feed and just show a static list of posts, then when I choose to refresh the page it will get more?

The websocket will soon^tm^ be removed from the frontend. It isn’t scalable and most people seem to prefer less live data on the site.
