[Mobile] Remove infinite scrolling from long lists
Description
On mobile devices, it is not possible to reach the bottom of the page. When a long list/feed is on a page, like the forum or updates overview on the dashboard.
Goal
Reaching the elements under an element, with Infinite scrolling, without struggling. Like the footer.
Evidence
Try to reach the bottom, it is sometimes not possible.
Solution
A good solution for mobile devices is to limit the entries to a “human” readable amount (example: 20) and add a button “show more” which extends the list by another entries.
Another solution is to move the element with infinite scrolling to the bottom, so users can reach the underneath elements, except the footer.

The foodsharing page is not a metaverse page, which means the goal is not to stay a nightlong on the page ;)
Infinite scroll is a user experience (UX) practice in which content continually loads when a user reaches the bottom of the page. This creates the experience of an endless flow of information on a single, seemingly never-ending page.
