page update on post
!Friendica Support do other people also experience that on writing a post and sharing it, the post appears above the other posts, hidden, so you have to manually scroll the page down to see it? that is so confusing. am i doing something wrong, or is that expected behaviour? :)

The most recent posts are meant to appear at the top of your network page, so any new post you publish will also appear up there. Or maybe I didn't understand your confusion?

yes, but it does not scroll into view. the post that was the topmost post before writing a new one stays the topmost, and i have to scroll that down to see the new post. it feels like nothing has changed after writing and posting a post until i manually scroll down the page. (all of that on my own profile page)

Ah, I get it now. Yes, it doesn't scroll into view automatically, the network page is updated in the background which may (or may not) keep your scrolling position.

it feels like a software error, i had that question from at least 25% of the new users on my instance. they create a post, share it, and it is not to be seen, making them think it did not get posted. is that really by design? or would that be an improvement to be made?

This isn't by design, it's rather a side-effect of a general behavior. To scroll the post into view we would have to add some exception specific to this case, so it would be an improvement to be made.
