I can confirm, this behavior. But if you refresh the view there an no duplicates. Maybe clearing the apps cache also helps.
How do you refresh the list?
I can only drag up or down (to move up or down in list). Whille dragging down, more entries are added to list. I do not have to seem an option to refresh?
Thanks.

I went back to the categories overview and than back to “Essen & Trinken”. Did you try clearing the cache ?

After a period of difficulties check the App Lounge FAQ the first bit advice is
Clear App Lounge’s data by navigating to Settings > Apps > App Lounge > Storage & cache > Clear storage, then wait for a while before you use the Anonymous account login again.
If at first no change repeat and Wait longer.
