BUG: Pinned post updates all space posts latest activity dates
I went to pin a post today, and when I did, I noticed the main feed changed to display a bunch of older posts at the top (sorted by their latest activity). When I investigated, I saw that it was because clicking the Pin to Top button updated all of their updated_at datetimes in the database, which then pushed them to the top of my feed.
The post I pinned is in a space where only admin or moderators can post if that matters.
That's been a known issue for a while. Happens here too every time a new post is pinned all the new activity goes out of whack. Must boil down to how the pin action works but it's not been fixed since initial release.

Ross FCA seems weird that an action on a single post would somehow impact other posts in the same space, but I know how easy it can be to miss something simple like this. Hopefully, it's an easy fix they can get to soon!
Hello, thanks for reporting. We apologize for the oversight and will look into this.
(Update), The bug has been fixed in dev.
