@lnxw48a1 Seven hours to fully complete upgrade? - Your device is really slow... but you are lucky: I spent at least 200 hours developing v.36 and 37 of #AndStatus, so having v.37 installed on my devices took me a lot more efforts :-) Seriously, since last summer internal data model of AndStatus was mostly redesigned (inspired by #ActivityPub) in order to open a way for future… -

@lnxw48a1 Please read #AndStatus Change log. It is inside application in the menu -> Help, and here: http://andstatus.org/changelog.html
In particular, Mentions timeline is replaced by Interactions...
Regarding slow work right after upgrade: this is expected, because after main database modifications several long running "data fixers" are started, which fully complete the upgrade.

@lukaso666 Thank you for your feedback. I'm constantly trying to make #AndStatus more powerful and more intuitive to use.
But I value it as a tool for a power user more than a toy for a novice... Ideally it should transform / adapt for both kinds of users, but it's hard to achieve this in one application...

@loke "Is there really a need to be able to browse messages while typing a reply? I think that's what makes that page so complicated" I personally often find it useful to be able to read the whole conversation... lookup names of participants and even copy text from other notes while technically replying to the single note. But I agree that Editor, designed for Android 4, shoul… -

@thatbrickster Currently I'm testing Video attachments in development build of #AndStatus. I expect this feature will appear in the next release (v.38)
BTW, two days ago AndStatus v.37.01 was released to production and it is already available for everybody at Google Play.

@thatbrickster Yes, and as soon as you are not storing notes for years, it looks like media files take the most part of the storage. And that files really could be stored in the "cache" storage space. I'm planning to add a separate setting to limit media files storage. Currently media files are deleted only after corresponding notes have been deleted. Tip for now: In order ge… -

@thatbrickster Whoa, I thought that my local database of 250 Mb is the largest used with #AndStatus. It looks like you configured AndStatus not to purge old notes in Settings -> Storage?! Please do this if you see that the database is too large. Your own notes, reposts and likes by you shouldn't be purged in any case... but I would create a backup first... Regarding treating … -

@mcscx As I wrote already regarding duplicated posts: this is an effect of the "guaranteed message delivery" from #AndStatus side and "duplication problem ignorance" from the GNU Social server side.
The long story about duplicated posts, caused by communication problems, is here: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/83 -

@mcscx@quitter.se Sorry for duplicated posts. It looks like a server processed the large image too long and I got Timeout exception at my side after 30 seconds.
I will change default "Connection timeout" in #AndStatus Settings -> Syncing to 60 seconds to accommodate for such slow servers. https://loadaverage.org/attachment/4099046 -

@mastor Yeah, it's highly functional, just not quite as polished as others.
I also like that it caches toots locally. It means server outages don't break scrolling the timeline, and it hides the API limits. I never have to tell it to load more toots, I just scroll and the toots are already there.
I feel like other clients could learn a lot from #AndStatus.

#AndStatus for android is somehow the only Mastodon client that doesn't lose toots on my timeline or make the timeline jump around every time I load new toots. The ui isn't as good as #Twidere or #Mastalab, but "shows me all my toots and doesn't lose my place" is a non-negotiable feature set.

@roka I created the feature ticket: "Maximum size of cached images, Mb" with a default value of 100 Mb I.e. we may decide to store messages for years, but have a reasonable limit for avatars and attachments. http://status.hackerposse.com/url/17013 Avatars are much smaller than attachments, so maybe internally #AndStatus will distribute the whole allocated size between them so … -

@andstatus @thefaico it does but the lowest deletion thresholds (500 messages or one day) can still clog up built-in memory on certain low-memory devices, especially since the only choices for storage are /data/ or /storage/emulated/0/. Doubly so if you follow artists on pawoo and opt to *not* disable displaying attachments. To be fair, it is absolutely a matter of setting AndStat… -

While helping one of my friends to make UI of his application more responsive, I found out that #AndStatus needs similar fixes also... As a result of this discovery potentially long file access operations (actually, all file access functions) where moved to asynchronous tasks. And timeline scrolling became smooth!
