Infinite scroll or Pagination

[obsidienne]

Hi @puemos,

Actually, we use infinite scroll to find posts. I'm not sure it's the best way to look throught posts.
For me, a pagination seems a better way to do it because, it

• allows a user to go the the seven page directly to find all posts
• decreases memory on the client side

If we stay with infinite scroll, may be we should swift to one of those two solution

• Intersection Observer
• A simple button (like google on mobil)

what do you think ?

I think there is no need to jump directly to page 7, the experience should resemble a Twitter feed.

At the moment the app is using a very simple mechanism to sense that the page is close to the end and then send an event to the page.

2. https://github.com/puemos/radiopush/blob/main/lib/radiopush_web/live/home_live/home_page.ex#L364

I do like the suggestion to replace it with a simple button, the whole feature will become simpler.

Do you have any thoughts on that? maybe you see the experience go in a direction of a blog?

The issue is that some of my channels have more than 200 posts.
How can a new user look through all those posts. How can a user remember certain posts.

One solution is to have some kind of pagination
Another one is to have automatic channels (the posts I reacted to, posts from septembre in the following channels, a combination of everything,...)
The last is to send back to spotify the posts selected

As I'm writing, i will need automatic channel to create a top10

What do you think ?
