AndStatus v.23.02 "Precise timeline position" published to the Open Beta testing channel http://status.hackerposse.com/url/8179 1. Timeline position keeping improved. Now app stores exact scroll position inside a message, not a message number only as before. As a result, timeline scrolling became smoother. 2. Implemented "Check users" procedure, which fixes User duplication in … -

@mmn Thank you for encouragement.
Do you know any implementation of this API that I could lookup in order to move from a zero point?! I need at least two pieces: authentication (client registration...) and making a request something like "statusnet/config" -

@mmn I understand your no reply as a sign that I should not plan to switch AndStatus as a GNU Social client application from Twitter API to Activity Streams in JSON format?! -

@orobouros@loadaverage.org Let's check step by step:
As I wrote earlier in order to open a context menu please tap and hold an avatar to the left of the message, not a text of the message.

@orobouros@loadaverage.org This means that you cannot open ”Context menu” by tapping and holding a message but clicks on a webfinger link instead.
Try to tap and hold an avatar: this will not cause a launch of any links, which may be present in a message.
This is why I'm planning to allow a User to open a Context menu with a single click only, see https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/331 -

AndStatus tip: ”Refresh from cache” may be needed in any place of a timeline, not at the top only, because sometimes images are downloaded later than messages.
And if you have more than one account, newly downloaded messages of one account may appear below latest messages of another account. -

@nobse You are the first one telling that AndStatus turns Android account sync on. I always have syncing off for some accounts and never noticed syncing turned on for them.
If you really can reproduce this, please create an issue here with all details, we will investigate this with you: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues?q=is%3Aissue+sort%3Aupdated-desc -

@hikerus "Go to the Top" will show you really recent posts only in a case automatic syncing is on, i.e. only if recent posts has been already loaded from servers in a background, when you didn't use AndStatus. -

@hikerus "Go to the Top" scrolls current timeline to the most recent post. If "Youngest" page is not loaded from cache, AndStatus loads it and then scrolls to the top.
BTW I noticed than sometimes page loading logic didn't work as expected. In v.23.01 (in the Beta channel now) I improved it a bit more... -

@hikerus Reading your story I would say that everything is OK except ”Go to the top" doesn't work. Could you try more and make the ”go to top seems not work" part more concrete? -

@julianproxy I think short URLs _expanding_ ("unrolling") would be a killer feature. It will give users more info on links' destination before even clicking on them. That URL expansion feature could even lookup a target page title also...

@mmn Thank you for reply. I remember why this behavior appeared in Twitter API of AndStatus many years ago: some fields in Twitter had "null" as a string value meaning null as nothing. -

@mmn As you didn't answer yet, I will put my question another way: Do you, as a main GNU Social developer, recommend to switch a client application from Twitter API to Activity Streams in JSON format? The format specification got a follow up, which we may become confirming to in order to ease integration with other systems: http://status.hackerposse.com/url/9982 ?! BTW congrat… -

@mmn AndStatus already supports ActivityStreams protocol in JSON format. Do you mean that I can switch to that protocol accessing GNU Social and forget about Twitter API problems? If yes, do you have any links with a list of API calls... ? Maybe any reference client implementation?! -

@andstatus As I mentioned, there is already a global user identifier. The URI for users will always be the same across profiles. And profile URLs all have metadata for various methods of discovery of this URI (usually it ends up being the /user/$id URL). If that data is not part of the Twitter API then we can arbitrarily add it to ease API usage. But the Twitter API su… -

@mmn Global User's identification will help clients to create broader/more complete/objective view on a User and his activity based on information from several GNU Social instances (where that client has accounts...)
