Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
When I open Phanpy again, it will scroll to the latest post, and this will make me lose progress because I will need to scroll down again to find the last post I was scrolling, then start scrolling up.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
I would like if phanpy stored the last visible post, probably in localstorage. So that when I re-open phanpy again, it will show that same post, and show a message at the top that shows there are new posts above. This should make that I don't get lost everytime I open phanpy
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
---
**Additional context**
The Ice Cubes app implements this on iOS. When I launch it, it will show the last post I was looking at when I last closed it and it will show a post counter at the top corresponding to the new number of posts.
Here is a screenshot of it in action.

Research direction
No file or test is named; start by locating the feed's scroll handling and any existing localStorage usage. Done means reopening Phanpy restores the last visible post and shows the number of newer posts above it.
