Description

Environment:

I'm mostly using my own server but sometimes open remote timelines.

  • OS:
    v17.3.1
  • IceCubesApp version:
    IceCubesApp v1.10.30

Description

When changing tabs in the app remote local timelines load 100 more over the already 100 loaded. This happened to me, when opening mastodon.social 6000+ posted were loaded in under a minute marking my IP banned on mastodon.social. (Tried with a new ip and this worked) Can a hard-limit be implemented, example max 1000 post loaded per X minutes so this does not happened again?

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing remote local timeline loading when changing tabs and inspect the existing 100-post pagination behavior. Done should mean repeated tab changes no longer fetch unbounded posts, but the issue still leaves the cap and time window to decide.
