SilverBullet docs caught in infinite sync loop

I’m on the SilverBullet.md site and any page I view syncs forever and ever, doing thousands of requests. Constant notices that the document has changed elsewhere. Sometimes it tells me sync/index progress is at crazy numbers like -8,000. The network log shows it fetches my current page a lot, but also fetches many other pages.

I’ve tried clearing my browser data, no dice.

You’re right, it’s going quite crazy. I suspect this has something to do with Cloudflare caching so I just (think) I disabled that, but it still seems to happen. Maybe it needs some time to settle. Thanks for reporting.

I refreshed and let the page sit for ~10 minutes, and now it looks fine. I just see the normal polling, at a reasonable rate.

It was my fancy kubernetes deployment that probably delivered files with inconsistent timestamps. Reduced it to 1 instance now and all seems to be good.
