May I ask what browser you are using and on what OS? The only buffer problems I ever ran into were with Internet Explorer 11 on Win7, 64bit). In certain situations it reverted to earlier cached versions of Gingko trees, which got me panicked as I thought I lost the content, but then the online version did have the most up-to-date version (when checked via Firefox or Chrome).
But otherwise no, I’ve never encountered the problem you’re describing.

I have Win7 and use Firefox. I also tried Chrome but the problem remained.

Adriano from Gingko confirmed the recent appearance of positioning bugs, and said they should be sorted out soon.

Update (in case someone else encounters the same): I found a way to by-pass the ordering bug: after each single change in order (only one item moved) I switch to another tree from My Gingko Trees. When I switch back, the new order is maintained. Apparently moving to another tree forces Gingko to save/commit the cached order. I did this several times and managed to get the full order as I wanted it. Not the most convenient of solutions but it worked.

I don’t know how long it’s been there but now Gingko has an ability to import formatted text as OPML from WorkFlowy. It only seems to be possible when you start a new document. Choose New > Import from WorkFlowy > paste in WorkFlowy OPML and > Import.
It seems to work quite well. It converts WorkFlowy’s vertical hierarchy into Gingko’s horizontal hierarchy. Outline items are turned into level 1 headings, and inline notes are turned into card text. Basic formatting (bold, italics) seems to be preserved, and URLs also remain fuctional.
This opens up the possibility for some integrated workflows with WorkFlowy. The key would be to remember to keep WorkFlowy items short (as they will be turned into Level 1 headings), put detail into the inline notes, and keep the hierarchy relatively shallow, otherwise a lot of horizontal scrolling will be involved.
While it says “OPML from WorkFlowy,” I imagine that other software’s OPML exports (such as Bonsai) could also be made to work, by using an external text editor first to change the inline note code to the OPML standard implemented by WorkFlowy.
