Description

The avatars would sometimes miss even if the screen before had them. For example, here, Saru's post has zero avatars, then it loaded mine, and then another post I saw later had my avatar until I clicked the like button. I can't say what triggers it, everything else worked fine while I was browsing posts. Most posts would just have avatars for likes. Perhaps some brief network issue that got cached? Not sure.

Research direction

No file or test is named; start at the Reader's likes/avatar display and reproduce the report by moving between posts, then compare avatars before and after tapping Like. Done means the triggering conditions are understood and avatars remain correct across those transitions, with regression coverage in the relevant test area.
