@BluePixel4k what's your use case? I don't see manual refresh buttons often and new content is supposed to start from the top anyway. There is also a "quick scroll to top" action, you can click on currently selected tab again in order to jump to top

With the official news app, I always like to use the feature because it automatically scrolls up, removes read articles, and loads new ones.

Its is nice to have, because I can do it in a detours :)

@BluePixel4k by official, do you mean Nextcloud app? This app has many backends and Nextcloud is the slowest and less reliable one, tbh. I don't really know how it works in the official NC app, but I'll check when I have time

Meanwhile, fell free to try Miniflux backend: URL: https://news.bubelov.com User: test Password: newstest

I was a NC user for a long time but one of the app users introduced me to Miniflux and I've never looked back. It's super fast and reliable, and it's also easier to setup on a server. NC support won't go anywhere, indeed, so you can keep using it
