Description

Description

New comments for a post with few comments are not appearing when switching accounts without a manual refresh while the post with more than hundreds of comments will refresh automatically with the new comment but not viewable when switching accounts. Please note that it is only one unexpected behavior among many unexpected behaviors observed when testing this issue.

How to reproduce
  1. Lauch RedReader App
  2. Click on Subscribed Posts.
  3. Click on the Messages icon on one of the post listed with few comments.
  4. Press for 1 second on a comment.
  5. Click Reply.
  6. Input your comment.
  7. Click on the Send icon
  8. Click on “Click here to view all comments for this post.”
  9. Click on the three dots button
  10. Click on Accounts
  11. Click on another account
  12. Repeat the steps 2 to 11 with a post with hundreds of comments.

Start by reproducing the account-switching flow in the RedReader Android app for posts with few comments and hundreds of comments, then isolate the differing behavior; done means new comments are correctly visible after switching accounts without a manual refresh.
