Description

Description:

If I alternate between upvote and downvote several times for a post at a constant pace, it flickers suddenly and briefly performs the opposite action before reverting to the original action or overwriting the last action with a time delay.

How to reproduce
  1. Lauch RedReader App.
  2. Click on Subscribed Posts.
  3. Click on the Messages icon on one of the post listed.
  4. Click Upvote and then Downvote several times a constant speed of 60 bpm or higher.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the rapid alternating upvote and downvote sequence in the RedReader Android app, following the Subscribed Posts message view described in the issue. Trace the vote action and its visible state updates; done means repeated changes do not flicker, briefly show the opposite action, or overwrite the latest action after a delay.
