Posts in Home tab (first tab) does not load intermittently

[kaushiknsanji]

The said issue occurs intermittently whenever the app is launched somewhat immediately after closing/exiting the app.

When this happens, it can be observed that the progress bar is shown, while in the logs we get to see NO communication initiated by OkHttp with the REST API for retrieving the Post list.

Unit Tests for HomeViewModel did not reveal any issue, while Instrumented Tests involving HomeFragment through MainActivity did show up the same problem occurring intermittently for testcases that involved working with the fragment of Home Tab.

Only workaround right now is to relaunch the app several times until it loads the list.
