The bug
News article images momentarily disappear and show their filename when clearing a search or category
What I expected
Article images wouldn't disappear. Perhaps they would fade in a bit nicer too (feels like an animation is missing given how smooth everything else in the launcher is)
Steps to reproduce
Navigate to the news section
Click one of the category select checkboxes twice OR input a search term into the box then remove it
Observe for a split second as the images flash away revealing the filename then reappear suddenly
We're looking to improve images. In particular, having placeholder image while the actual image is loading. This should also resolve this situation. Thanks for taking the time to hunt for bugs in the Launcher 🙂
