Explore is duplicating results

Please fill out the following sections to the best of your ability, it will help us investigate bugs if we have this information at the outset. Screenshots are especially helpful, so please provide those if you can.

Platform (Android, iOS, Website): Website

App version number, if a mobile app issue (shown under Settings or About):

Browser, if a website issue (Firefox, Chrome, etc) : Chrome (Version 133.0.6943.60)

URLs (aka web addresses) of any relevant observations or pages: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?d1=2025-02-01&d2=2025-02-11

Screenshots of what you are seeing (instructions for taking a screenshot on computers and mobile devices: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/):
results of my search rows 1 and 2:

Description of problem (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.):

Step 1: Go to the Explore tab

Step 2: Set filter for Date Observed range Feb 1, 2025 to Feb 11, 2025

Step 3: Scroll through the results, you’ll start to see repeats. Some of the same observations are being shown in multiple rows, in varying order (position changes). This has been going on for a few days now.

HI @erin-816, this is one of the older bugs on the site, but iNat staff already know about it and will fix it when they revamp the Explore page. I’ll close this topic as there is already an open/unresolved bug report for this here: https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/observations-displayed-multiple-times-when-scrolling-in-grid-view/504
