@roka Looks like some deeper hardcoded limit in #AndStatus. Than you for reporting - will fix this also. However I cannot test this 65535 characters anywhere: tried and failed to register at your instance...
@rmbl Oh, I see that I was confused a bit about terminology. The "Group" notion in #ActivityPub is about a group of Actors (people etc.), but we are talking here about a named "Collection" of notes/activities. But actually GNU Social calls such collections "Groups" :-) I'm creating descriptions and comparisons of Groups/Lists notions in different types of social networks, supported by #AndStatus, here: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/248#issuecomment-219826572
No, I don't use IRC. That way of communication is in another Universe for me :-)
@rmbl Sometimes I need the same, and I also feel that it is inconvenient to keep "unread" all notifications in order not to forget one of them. Recently I started implementation of Group/Lists support in #AndStatus. And I see that creation of some personal "ToDo" group and adding any note/ activity to that group could help in such cases. Unfortunately AFAIK only #ActivityPub supports such actions, meaning that such custom groups of notes could be automatically synced between User's devices or even shared... Moreover, each "Social network" in #AndStatus logically should have its own group... So it seems that I will start from some device-local groups (like tags...) that can be easily viewed... @fedilab
@moonman There are two dimentions in the support of different protocols of Social networks, which I'm facing during development : 1. Implementation of different API calls and parsing responses of every API of every supported protocol. I cope with this problem simply by implementing only some of available APIs (features)... 2. Trying to adapt internal data/actions model so that it could fit into conceptual differencies of different systems. This is a lot more time consuming and difficult to do right. In #AndStatus we started ten years ago with Twitter-like model. For the last two years I'm gradually converting it into #ActivityPub based model...
@roka As I remember, #AndStatus gets the limit from Mastodon's configuration... Please try to go to AndStatus Settings -> Accounts -> Manage Accounts -> Select your account and then Reverify credentials. Do you see updated toot length limit?
@andstatus > I need logged JSON responses of your server to the #AndStatus requests of the Home timeline...
Do you mean from my server's log or from AndStatus debug files?

@colegota "Sync 10 minutes ago. Sync since June 22" means that although the Timeline was successfully (without errors) synced some minutes ago, the latest activity/note ever downloaded via this server API, was sent on June 22. More recent activities that you see could be downloaded via other Server APIs (endpoints, URLs...) and this is why you see some more recent posts. In order to understand the problem better, I need logged JSON responses of your server to the #AndStatus requests of the Home timeline...

@baloouriza Currently #AndStatus uses Android's native way to handle the stack of activities thus allowing a user to move backwards just like in any other Android app. Changing this would surprise a user... I think that what you really want is that a Timeline in the stack would be automatically updated and re-positioned to the latest viewed position on its opening during the User's navigation "back" - currently a Tímeline from the backstack usually shows outdated information. ?! Please note that navigation to the Default Tímeline currently clears the whole activities stack thus allowing you to return to the beginning in one tap. I usually do this exactly to avoid long return using the Android stack. Just set the Default Tímeline properly...
@colegota In short: Notifications section in #AndStatus settings lists some other things; not timelines. Longer answer: "Unread notifications" timeline includes activities: "create(post) note", "announce (retweet/repost/reblog) note", etc. which were recognized by AndStatus app as belonging to at least one of checked "Notification event types". No matter how the activity was received for some of them (e.g. for mentions) but one-to-one for others: "Home timeline" notification corresponds to the Home API timeline for all Twitter-like APIs (i.e. Twitter, GNU Social and Mastodon) and Inbox API timeline for #ActivityPub client to server API. Meaning of some AndStatus Timelines are changing over time. E.g. even for me it's unclear yet, if "Unread notifications" timeline notifies "the account" (as it was implemented quite long ago) or it should rather notify My Actor who happens to be linked to an account on some server... I clarify this for myself also, and make corresponding changes in the app...
@lnxw48a1 did not delete it. I dropped a stylus and AndStatus deleted the post before I could pick the stylus up. Note that the proximate cause was dropping the stylus. #AndStatus just responded faster than expected to the stylus’s landing point.
@colegota Hi, I encountered this problem during the first run of the app from time to time (during testing...) , but so far it was really enough to reboot a device /or reinstall #AndStatus... Maybe clearing app data instead of reinstalling will work for you? Please read what helped one of users: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/505
What's new: 1. Added "summary" (Content warning) Note property and "Sensitive" flag (checkbox in the Editor). If the Note (Toot) is Sensitive, starting a Reply to that toot the app makes the Reply Sensitive also, and copies Summary (CW) from the parent toot also. Sensitive content may be made visible or invisible in the Navigation drawer (or in Settings -> Timeline). https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/507 2. More Mastodon attachments are shown now ("remote" media files are shown in a case the type of the local ones is "unknown")
@baloouriza #AndStatus will have separate "Sensitive" checkbox and "Summary/CW" text fields. Do you mean that "Sensitive" checkbox should be defaulted to what is in the parent? Or you think that the CW text should be copied also?
