I’ve seen the following behavior a few times in the last weeks:

- I’m reading topic A
- I click a link to another suggested topic
- the spinner shows for a moment
- I’m back at the beginning of topic **A**
- reloading the page shows topic B

After the bug is triggered, as long as the page isn’t reloaded, _all_ navigation will always end in topic A.

This is happening in Safari in iOS. I don’t have definite repro steps, but navigating around with the suggested topic links seems to trigger it sometimes.

I haven’t seen this in a while now, have you @fefrei? Maybe iOS 10 or later iOS 9 is a fix?

I haven’t seen it in the Discourse iOS app; I haven’t been testing in Safari lately. So maybe it’s fixed – the Safari view controller should be pretty identical to the real Safari.
