Why
We're using a
WeakMap
right now for our post thread shadow, which is a bit annoying. The way we use it, we use aPostView
as the key for lookups, which is generally fine but causes problems when navigating between screens. For example:Screen.Recording.2024-09-02.at.3.09.09.PM.mov
This happens because the
PostView
that we get in response togetPostThread
is not the same as thePostView
that was seen in the feed.Test Plan
Since here we use just the post's URI as a key, we get the expected behavior of "keeping" the like whenever transition between screens
Screen.Recording.2024-09-02.at.3.11.30.PM.mov
