Observe jump back 20 posts
Each subsequent edit jumps back a further 20 posts.
Today I just edited post 135 in a thread and it took me back 20 posts (as previously reported) but the post number at the bottom said 134/135.
After editing I saw this:
Going to the bottom to see the post I was editing (135) showed this:
The post it showed me was actually 115:

So to be clear what are the repro steps?

Good question.
I’m still trying to reproduce it. Trying to remember if I did anything in particular during this edit.
A normal edit works OK.

This is also happening when editing a DM in a long DM thread.
Ok, so what are the specific repro steps?

The same as the old closed issue linked in the OP, but for DM view rather than Topic view.

I’m also still seeing the original linked issue after editing a post. Same repro steps.

Just confirming, this issue is specific to Safari iOS? Does not happen in Firefox / Chrome?
This is still happening BTW.

I have experienced this as well, though I don’t have a specific repro.

Still getting this.
It’s so annoying, like a scratch on a vinyl or CD that makes the audio skip back a bit. Then you have to find your place again.
Hello!
Yes, this is still happening.
First reported November 2020.

Hmm, could this be somehow related to:
Hello
This is a long-standing issue that occurs in the topic when you try to type something into a modal input field. It always jumps to the top of the page, which results in an infinite load until it reaches post 1. It’s still an issue with the Glimmer Post Stream.
It makes very difficult to move posts to another topic because the modal also jumps while loading, other write related process and it also causes problems with the new discourse reaction feature, which opens the emoji…
Seems like a good chance
Unlikely, because the code for that bug was introduced after this one was first reported.

I have a nagging bug for a long time when opening/closing topics that are assigned. It’s a much narrower use case, very much not what the report here is about, but there’s a slim chance the underlying issue is the same.
Here’s the PR for the other issue: DEV: Fix a rare bug where topic scrolls to OP unexpectedly by pmusaraj · Pull Request #34713 · discourse/discourse · GitHub , its repro steps are quite different, they’re related to the assign plugin (PR has specifics). But maybe, maybe… the fix can do something for your use case as well. One can always hope!

There’s nothing I can do with this info. But I’m hopeful

Anything I can do to help get this one licked?
It’s the final boss of bugs.
