I finally figured out that this occurs specifically when tapping the topic progress indicator (blue part showing x/y posts) or to its left. It seems to only happen when at the end of the topic, not when the topic progress indicator is “floating” in the middle of the topic. But of course, when it’s fixed at the end of the topic is …
