This started today, as is really annoying to me. Every time I open topic from /latest (my home page) the site reloads. Switching topics from within topics is fine, but home page is not. Just double checked this, any way I open a topic (EXCEPT for notifications or on-topic links), it reloads.

Users are reporting a bug where the Discourse site refreshes every time a topic is opened—except via notifications or in-topic links. Firepup650 first reported the issue on Meta using Chrome on Android 13, noting it started that day and persisted despite reloading, safe mode, or restarting the browser. justanotherperson suggested troubleshooting steps, which Firepup650 confirmed didn’t help. justanotherperson and ondrej confirmed experiencing the same issue, with ondrej sharing a screenshot showing a brief blank screen before loading. david acknowledged the reports, noting the bug affects sites with the ‘mixed text direction’ setting enabled, and david later confirmed it was fixed via a commit to the Discourse repository.

Did you try safe mode?
Try:
- reloading
- safe mode, as the reply above me says
- closing out and trying again
- site settings (sorry, I don’t own a forum so I don’t know)
Still occurs, I just checked. Also, this is happening to me here on Meta, Samsung Android 13 phone, Chrome.
Discourse is doing that one for me 
No effect
Closing my browser?
EDIT: Just force-closed and re-opened chrome and that didn’t do anything.
NA, as this is happening on Meta to me, and not elsewhere.

Thanks for the reports - we’re working on a fix 
Looks like it’s only affecting sites with the ‘mixed text direction’ site setting enabled.
