Okay, I don’t think this is just me any more. I’ve been having this odd experience on mobile and on a desktop for a few days now here at Meta.

Whenever I use the back button on my mobile (Android using Chrome) or if I use the u shortcut on a desktop, I’m occasionally taken to the wrong page (think 2 pages in my history instead of 1 page back in my history).

I don’t have easily reproducible steps other than, use it for a while and see what happens, but here is my typical workflow that causes it (after you use it for a while)

1. Navigate to Latest
2. Click on a topic
3. Read topic, press u
4. You should be back to latest
5. Click on the same topic you just read
6. Press u
7. You should be back to latest (but you might not be)
8. Click on a different topic
9. Perform steps 3-8 again until issue occurs.
