 This bug is related to **WordPress.com back-end** (e.g.
 https://wordpress.com/types/feedback/example.com or
 https://wordpress.com/posts/example.org)

 Test environment:
 - Browser: Google Chrome 70.0.3538.77 (Official Build) (64-bit)
 - OS: Windows 10 Pro

 **How to reproduce:\\**
 1- Navigate to https://wordpress.com/posts/example.com\\
 2- Scroll down a little bit so that the upper part of the content is out
 of view.\\
 3- Click on a post to open it.\\
 4- Close the post by clicking the "Close" button at the top left corner.\\
 5- You will see that the list of posts has scrolled up all the way to the
 very top.\\

 One could argue that this is "normal" behavior but the UI also hijacks
 Chrome's normal behavior. If you click on the browser's back button
 instead of clicking the Close button you will also see the very top of the
 page.

 In addition, a "Close" button, implies that this is some sort of a window
 or overlay that will close and leave you with your list of posts in the
 exact way you had it in the first place.
