?page=n URLs have high CLS hence bad SEO

Search engines crawl the paginated URLs on large topics, but face a high Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) with them.

Opening them in browser, ?page=2 shows reply 21 correctly aligned at first, but after a little moment it jumps up to somewhere between replies 19 and 21. Probably this can be omitted to improve SEO and user experience when pagination is used.

We’re also experiencing this issue in our forum site. Google Search Console is reporting these URLs with a high CLS. :frowning:

Will this be addressed on future updates or is there a workaround for this? @team
