Epaper feature does not work

by Sc*****, 2026-09-01

The home page is a scroll of huge pics making it hard to really see what’s going on. If you’re mid-article and you switch to another app and come back, it doesn’t save your place - you end up on the home page meaning you have to navigate back to the article (I got there from a notification so not sure where to find it), and then scroll down to where you left off. That’s just stupid. Give me the ability to config the layout of my home page and always bring me back to where I left off. Put new stuff at the top if you want me to see it, but this ruins my experience.
