I've seen this on a few sessions. Most recently it happened with a snare I had dropped after catching a rabbit. All of the sudden the snare slowly lifted off in whatever direction, and then it picked up speed until completely off screen at a super high velocity. Can only assume it's forever gone off into infinity.
I didn't report it earlier because I have no real clue how to reproduce this, although I will say it does seem to happen only when there are a good amount of objects in the surrounding area. It also happened earlier with a basket full of carrots in that same session today, similarly crowded area. That could be a red herring though.
Sorry I can't be more specific. Maybe others have seen it and can reply with more reports and we'll get to the bottom of it. I'll do the same.

I think this is lag, another character moving objects but their sprite not registering in time. Happens to me in big villages with lots of people interacting with objects.

It could be! But in the case of the snare, I had just put it down and my daughter mentioned it too with a "wtf?" and nobody else was around before or after to pick it up. I have seen the lag thing happen with me when I pick something up and it takes a bit to catch up to me because I'm running too fast for it/the server, but this seems different idk.

Was the area so crowded that there was absolutely nowhere to drop it?
If so, it is possible for it to "fly off" to find an empty space, I think.
