I am consistently double tapping the upvote and downvote buttons because the new animation takes so long to trigger after press.
I have a about 500 ms delay before the animation starts. Google Pixel 4
I haven’t noticed this issue but judging from the number of upvotes, more than a few are experiencing this. What devices are you guys using?
Galaxy S22+ here. It doesn’t seem like a lag issue, more like the animation was meant to delay for a beat after you tap. Agree that it’s not a major issue, but it delays long enough to make me pause to confirm it actually registered the tap.
ETA: it’s only on post up/down votes. Comment votes have a different animation that is immediate, and which I’d prefer to be used for posts as well.
Yes the upvote and downvote buttons start a blue spinning wheel while it’s doing something, and then shows the updated vote count about a second later.
It doesn’t have to do with the phone. Probably it’s waiting for a response from the server before it registers the vote, and that takes a while.
Edit: For me the animation starts right when I click, it’s not delayed. Only the updated vote count is delayed. So maybe it’s not the same issue as you are describing.
Upvoted this just to see the said animation anyone?
I’m not having any of these issues. Maybe try clearing the app cache?
I see the same “lag” even for the share button, bookmark button and even for the three-dot menu under a post.
