@nestort #AndStatus currently uses only plain-text version of the Note to figure out a mentioned Actor. Unfortunately, GNU Social servers (at least some of them) wrongly replace mentioning by webfingerId with mentioning by username without a domain. And this causes confusion, because there can be different actors on different servers with the same username...
@paulelms It's interesting that offline reading and posting in #AndStatus is useful even for people, who always have stable Internet connection. Because nodes / instances of the federated network aren't always online :-) For example, yesterday #LoadAverage was offline for the whole day, but I still could read your posts, which were downloaded before the outage, and even responded to them. That responses were actually sent only today, naturally, when LoadAverage is up again :-)
@ma1uta Actually this is limitation of the "Twitter-compatible API" in #Friendica that causes such unexpected behavior. #AndStatus doesn't have separate API for Friendica and and its developer, with whom I collaborated, deliberately decided to adapt Friendica to the same client API that GNU Social uses and not to create a custom one. I hope Friendica will create #ActivityPub client-to-server protocol as GNU Social plans to do this summer... @paulelms @balancer
@paulelms Glad to hear that you like #AndStatus. Regarding inconveniences that you noted: 1. You can set as the Default timeline any timeline that you like. Just go to "Manage timelines" action menu item. You can also set any timelines as Always visible or invisible to customize the timeline list... 2. Similarly, you can set default Account and reorder accounts in Settings -> Manage Accounts. Regarding easier Account switch for posting a new note, do you have any suggestion on this? Maybe I should add account selector to the Note Editor?! I mean making a button "My account / author name" text above the composing note, allowing to switch the posting account/actor?! . BTW AndStatus v.38.04 is released http://andstatus.org/changelog.html PS: Sorry for English :-)
Беру свои слова обратно, AndStatus классный. Есть только две проблемы: постоянно сбрасывается «объединенная лента» и неудобно выбирать аккаунт, с которого отправить сообщение.
#AndStatus v.38.02 "Video attachments and Titles for notes" is published at an Open Beta testing channel and just waits for your confirmation that it is ready for release https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/456 What's new: 1. Video file can be attached to a new note. A thumbnail of the video attachment is shown in a timeline. Video attachment may be viewed the same way as an image attachment. 2. Added titles (names) for notes of Pump.io and Mastodon (where they are called "CW"). 3. Added "Public" checkbox to the Note Editor to mark a note explicitly as public or not public. Currently this option is available for Pump.io only. 4. Click on an attached image or video opens corresponding viewer/player application. 5. Added an option for "Collapse duplicates" that allows it to find not only adjacent duplicates ("distance" = 1), but also duplicates, separated by other notes: Timeline -> "Maximum distance between duplicates" which defaults to "5" now. Setting it to 0 disables the "Collapse duplicates" feature. 6. Fixed: All users, mentioned as @username in a text of an incoming note, are identified and used in Notifications. Multiple note recipients are supported for Pump.io. https://loadaverage.org/attachment/4202650
@thatbrickster As you can reproduce the problem, maybe you could describe, what you are doing. Or maybe even record video.! :-) So I could figure out a cause of the freeze. ?!
@thelovebug No no, I love feedback and bug reports :-) Feedback from beta testers is especially useful, and new bugs, reported during beta testing, are usually fixed before the next release. Please only don't be disappointed in a case your suggestions or bug reports are not processed and fixed fast enough :-)
@thelovebug I fixed usage of mentions in a text of a note for Notifications. It appeared that some time ago I deliberately decided to take into account only a mention at the very beginning of a text. Now all mentioned users are regarded as the note's recipients and hence take part in creation of Notifications.
