Usercards screenwrap back to you when scrolling away far enough to load new posts

Bug
1

Reproduction steps:

  1. Click on a usercard.
  2. Scroll away from that user’s usercard.
  3. The usercard appears again even though you have not clicked on their usercard afterwards.

Hey @twofoursixeight, thanks for the report — could you please include your device / browser / version details so we can try to reproduce?

That was reproduced on a linux mint 22 machine running firefox. I don’t have access to it right now but it was running the latest version.
I will check if I can reproduce on my mobile devices. I cannot reproduce on my tablets as touching the screen makes the usercard disappear, so I presume this only happened to my desktop device. It involved using the mousewheel I believe.

We don’t close user card on scroll, we could close it when it goes significantly out of viewport though.

So not a bug per say, it’s expected behavior atm.

I think the issue here is that the open user card is appearing outside its original context. It’s a little tricky to tell in the video but I think what’s happening is:

  • Open user card on post A
  • Without closing the user card, scroll up or down a ways
  • Same user card appears opened, but not on post A

I can’t reproduce it at the moment — for me, if I open a user card on post A and scroll way up / down, the user card only shows as opened when I scroll past post A.
