andstatus: #AndStatus v.57.00 Beta published. "Animated images and Video preview. User's preferred screen orientation". Download from: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/456 1. For Android 9+ only: Animations of animated images are shown by default. Both in attachments and in avatars. GIF and WebP are supported. Settings -> Appearance -> "Show image animations" option allows to turn this behavior off. It appears that currently only ActivityPub and Pump.io networks (i.e. server parts of them) support WebP and keep GIFs as is. Other servers simply reject WebP and convert GIFs to video... https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/330 2. Animated images and video on Twitter are shown as preview image with a "Play" button on it. This is the same behavior as for other social networks. 3. "Play" button on a video preview image is moved to the bottom corner to allow better view of the image. 4. Screen orientation is not "unspecified", as before, https://loadaverage.org/notice/19236119

andstatus: #AndStatus v.56.09 (326) released. "Show numbers of likes, replies and reblogs for a Note 1. Show numbers of likes, replies and reblogs for Mastodon; likes and retweets for Twitter. Added similar to #ActivityPub #C2S, hope the same counters will be supported there also. 2. Added Actors's name ("Real name") as a separate field to Actor's profile. Created landscape layout for Actor's profile. https://loadaverage.org/attachment/5933715

andstatus: #AndStatus v.56.06 released with: 1. Simplified nterface to add new account in #Mastodon. You don't need to add "Social network" separately. Just type (host of) instance and proceed to Log in. 2. Fixed "App language" switch. Many translation updates. 3. Fixed Conversation view in #Twitter. http://andstatus.org/ https://loadaverage.org/attachment/5932150

andstatus: #AndStatus v.56.01 released. "Avatars and attachments syncing performance improved". Download from: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/456 Since its creation years ago AndStatus used only one background process (thread) to post and to download information from the Internet. Images downloads were considered low priority tasks, so avatars and attachments appeared noticeably later than text of a timeline, especially when multiple timelines and accounts were synced one after one. With this release a separate process is responsible for images downloading, so overall syncing performance improvement should be visible.

andstatus: @diogo Thank you for your explanation. Now I really see a page on the loadaverage site that tells its server version. And #AndStatus still successfully connects to the server (I'm writing to you using it). This means that the authentication problem that I reported is caused by a configuration of a concrete server, and not by the latest version of #GnuSocial :-) Using a chance to talk with you, I hope that you will find time for Client-to-Server #ActivityPub API also. I'm extending support of that API in AndStatus, and already see that not only #Pleroma, but even some #Mastodon sites begin to implement some parts of the API, allowing a Client app to request information directly from its sources, without a need to duplicate it. E.g. Notes by an Actor may be requested from the Actor's profile (from the Actor's outbox) at his site, and not from the server, at which the User of the Client app has an account... @colegota @xrevan86

andstatus: @xrevan86 @diogo One of users reported that #AndStatus app doesn't work with the new #GnuSocial server "v.2.0..x dev". I started investigation and see that /api/statusnet/config.json API point now returns 404. Looking in current Source code of the server I see that the API is documented now as /api/gnusocial/config.json - but that returns 404 also... So the question is did Client API change radically or the server is simply broken, or... ? And where can we see any info on Client to Server API changes / current docs? @colegota

andstatus: @coolboymew Thank you for the feedback. As I see you mentions not "outdated things" but features/settings that didn't meet your expectations or were unusual for you :-) Most of what you mentioned can be configured in #AndStatus settings. Including a list of timelines to be shown, whether or not request all notes/tweets or recent only... Notifications were improved a year or two ago and now you can see "Unread notifications" timeline (yes, another timeline :-) ) and explicitly mark all notifications as read. @dielan @thefaico@quitter.se

andstatus: Testing group name autocompletion in #GnuSocial using #AndStatus !gnusocial It works already. Not very impressive yet, because there is NO WAY (yet?!) to get actual metadata for remote groups (actual unique ID, avatar ...) But adding internal app's infrastructure for Groups support is much more important. It could be used e.g. in #ActivityPub Where are you, #ActivityPub #C2S (client to server protocol) developers? @kaniini @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @xrevan86 https://loadaverage.org/attachment/5792570

andstatus: On adding Group / List support to #AndStatus Oh, I see that #GNUSocial development is going on: https://notabug.org/diogo/gnu-social #ActivityPub Server-to-Server support is being added (and I saw a report that it was successfully tested some days ago...) Moreover, looking into the source code I found the first-hand info about the system's API . And although the code, related to Groups support, didn't change for the last six years :-) https://notabug.org/diogo/gnu-social/src/nightly/actions/apitimelinegroup.php , it works and I could actually retrieve the group's timeline at loadaverage.org The unusual "!groupname" syntax to address a group is not a big problem... So I'm moving on adding Group support to #AndStatus (whatever it will be actually...) https://loadaverage.org/attachment/5785458

Simply because they work and at least somebody is using them, I hope. Or it is too late to implement something for #GNUSocial ?! I mean, too few people use it..?!

andstatus: RT @andstatus @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

andstatus: @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... @astheroth @dragnucs

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... Tip: In order to fix a Timeline's syncing problem, try to go to "Manage Timelines" and select "Forget sync events and dates" in the Timeline's context menu. https://loadaverage.org/attachment/5477161

andstatus: RT @andstatus @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...

andstatus: @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...

andstatus: @colegota I tried to add new account in #AndStatus v.50.01, and I cannot do this either. Actually, I'm using v.50.01 now and didn't notice any other problems yet. But I didn't add new accounts since last upgrade. So existing users seems like unaffected by this bug. Will fix the latest version as soon as I will be at my PC (I'm still faraway...) For the new users: 1. Please uninstall v.50.01, 2. Install v.49 using G-Droid/F-Droid app. I just tried G-Droid, see screenshot - three versions of AndStatus are available. https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.gdroid.gdroid/ 3. Add all necessary accounts. 4. Create a backup in AndStatus Settings -> Storage -> "Back up app data to SD card". Backups are always good, and in a case step 5 fails you can quickly restore everything, reinstalling v.49 and then Restore this backup from the first screen of the app. 5. (optionally) Update AndStatus to v.50.01 in the same G-Droid/F-Droid app. #G-Droid misbehaved here for me on a first attempt... but after I had restarted it, it updated AndStatus successfully. https://loadaverage.org/attachment/5398183

andstatus: @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

andstatus: #AndStatus v.50.01 ""Sensitive" flag and CW/Summary for a Toot/Note" is released (and is already available in the Beta channel), see https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/456 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") Full list of changes is here: http://andstatus.org/changelog.html

andstatus: @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?
