Feed: the foot says when older posts are loading, and when there are none left.

Feed: only the rows near the viewport are in the DOM, however far you scroll.

A long scroll left hundreds of rows mounted, and every repaint (a zap count, a profile landing, the thirty-second sync) rebuilt and diffed all of them — the slowdown deep in the feed. Rows beyond two and a half screens either side of the viewport are now replaced by a spacer at their measured height, so the page keeps its length (scrollbar, Back, arrival anchoring behave as before) while a repaint touches a few dozen rows. After svelte-virtual-list: measure after paint, estimate unmeasured rows at the running average, hold the reader's row still when a measurement corrects an estimate. Applies to the profile notes list too. Tests: feed-window-dom (120 posts, 27,800px page, 12–24 rows mounted, anchor held, spacers both sides); feed-live looks at the top after scrolling up; the moderation test's stub relay no longer lets real posts in.
