"FT Desktop Infinite Scroll" feature for desktop viewing introduced Jan 2017
NOTE: Selecting the Mobile Skin / display format will activate Infinite Scroll.
Opting out of "FT Desktop Infinte Scroll" skin:
How to opt out:
If you opt out, your pagination will revert to the “classic” FT Desktop View skin when you are logged into your FT account. Bear in mind that if you visit FT before logging in, you will see the infinite scroll.
To opt out, you can see this post or just go to
My FlyerTalk->Edit Options->Thread Display Options->“Disable Desktop Infinite Scroll”
Click the check box and click SAVE CHANGES.

If infinite scroll is set to default style and you keep reverting to infinite scroll:
... Unfortunately since it's set to be the default style, opting out wont work.
So, with that said, you'll need to go into the "My Options" page and both disable infinite scroll and change your default style/skin to FT Desktop ..also don't forget to save!
Hope this helps!

I've tried with a fresh incognito mode session but the issue is still there. Infinite scrolling works, but when the following pages load, they are not marked as read, and the like button doesn't work (the like button doesn't work on previous pages either if you browse upwards).

Just noticed there was a thread dedicated to infinite scroll, so I'll continue the report here instead.
Apostrophes are being rendered into multiple spaces, and it seems to occur more frequently with specific users. It occurs on macOS and Chrome, but not Windows and Chrome. On Firefox, the apostrophes are deleted completely (e.g. That's --> Thats).

IBJoel, were you able to recreate the apostrophe bug on macOS? It may perhaps interest you to know that posts by JDiver generate the bug.

A lot of users switch to desktop mode on their phones to bypass infinite scroll (I say this because you are new to the site).

I'm still confused as why you can't just let the mobile template users turn the "feature" off?

I notice that since today*, infinite scroll seems to work better: posts are marked as read, and the like buttons work on subsequent pages, at least on my mobile. Kudos to the devs/admin teams!
*I noticed today but it might have worked since a bit longer

Hi,
Posts aren't being marked as read again when using chrome mobile. They're fine on the 'current' page, but any subsequent pages being loaded by infinite scrolling, posts aren't being marked as read as I browse them. When I return to my subscriptions, they're still marked as not read, and if I click on first unread it will take me to the start of a page I've already read.

It's not. This still happens to me with some frequency on mobile skin, when there is more than one page of new messages. (I'm not sure if it happens *every* time that's the case, but it definitely still happens.)
