Keep usePopularPosts() keyed to the requested board list, wait to reveal the box until the first result set is stable, and limit the grid to one thread per board. Freeze the first revealed threads until refresh or filter changes so later board loads cannot displace visible cards.
bitsocialhq/pkc-react-hooks is a fork of plebbit-react-hooks that we're maintaining temporarily as an attempt to modernize the original repository using AI tools, possibly merging changes back into plebbit-react-hooks, which should also be rebranded to pkc-react-hooks eventually, under the org pkcprotocol.
Replace sync setState-in-effect with keyed remount and render-derived patterns in app, error-display, topbar-edit-modal, catalog-filters; use useCurrentTime() instead of Date.now() in hot paths; fix conditional hooks, passive scroll listeners, lodash path imports.
Use Zustand selectors with custom equality functions to only subscribe to specific fields needed by components, avoiding unnecessary rerenders when transient state like updatingState changes. Extract offline indicators into separate components to isolate rerenders. Memoize card components in catalog and popular threads views.
Remove boards list loading state since default data is available synchronously. Add min-height to popular threads loading state to reserve space and prevent container resize. Left-align loading text in popular threads.
