t3/next.js app - back button doesn't work?

I recently went through theo's T3 tutorial where we built a emojis-only-twitter app. the back button doesn't seem to work. i can click onto a single post/user view (1st pic), but when i click back, the home page doesn't re-render despite the page url changing accordingly (2nd pic). when i refresh the page the home page loads. if i manually enter the home page (localhost:3000/), it loads. --- it seems like this was an issue in earlier versions of next.js; see: - https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/7091 - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55780645/next-js-on-back-button-click-page-content-is-not-loading these threads point to issues arising from code manipulating scroll positions etc. or using Links. problem is, i'm not doing anything with the scroll position between routes. moreover, the browser tools don't show any errors or warnings. --- would greatly appreciate any input/direction on this!
