When there are pictures on the screen of my iPad, the page gets jumpy and flickers between showing the image and moving to a point where the image is not visible and jumping back several times per second.

Anyone else having this problem?

This was the only reference I could find to jumpy pictures on the Discourse meta forum.

Ah, the curse of the jellypotato still lives on…That was a problem the TDWTF group always had. It had something to do with (I think) whatever module/plugin does the oneboxing and thumbnails for images silently unloading them when they’re scrolled off the page…which then changes the page height when it shouldn’t.

Im viewing on my iPad, and not having the issue. EDIT: im using a cellular iPad pro 12.9in M1 with 16gb ram, so my experience maybe very different.

It isn’t happening now. But then the site looks different than it did when the problem occurred. I’ll take that as a win.

Might be due to layout changing due to resizing or similar?
