Repro (flaky)

NOTE: it's hard to reproduce reliably. currently there's no known way to reliably reproduce. the steps below sometimes (rarely) work.

  1. Open an article from a feed.
  2. Scroll to the bottom of the article body.

Actual

After the last line of the article body, there is a large empty area before the bottom navigation bar. The size of the gap is not consistent — on some articles it is small, on others it occupies more than half of the screen height.

Reproduced on:

  • A short English article from the Hacker News feed (last line is a single URL; the rest of the screen is empty).
  • A Chinese-language article that includes an image and several lines of body text (last visible line of text is cut off mid-sentence, followed by a large empty area).

Expected

The bottom of the article content should sit just above the bottom app bar, with at most a small amount of clearance so the last line is not covered by the system bottom bar.

Notes

  • Observed after the latest scroll-handling changes were merged on main.
  • The article HTML is not modified by the user; the gap appears between the last line of the rendered article and the bottom navigation bar.
