Description

Expected behavior

When browsing a Reader tag, I should be able to scroll down infinitely.

Actual behavior

A gray button "Load more posts" appears inviting me to fetch posts. When I click it, it tells me "Busy, Please wait until the current fetch completes"

Doesn't happen with all tags but it happens somewhat regularly.

Browse tags and scroll down until you see it

Tested on [device], iOS [version], Jetpack iOS / WordPress iOS [version]

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Reader while browsing tags on an iPhone, scrolling until “Load more posts” appears, and checking whether tapping it shows the busy message. Trace the tag browsing and post-fetch flow from that entry point. Done means tag browsing can continue loading posts without the incorrect busy state.
