Why YSK: Until Lemmy version 0.18 address this bug, you can browse the front page without it being auto updated and spammed with new posts.
Just browse page 0 instead of 1: https://lemmy.world/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/All/sort/Hot/page/0 (1 changed to 0)
THANK YOU!!! Ugh, this has been super annoying.
