@verius @andstatus Let's use myself as an example. I have my main account here, and I also have alt accounts on other instances - wrongthink where I helped them restore their instance after a crash, and shitposter club. So say, I have those three accounts in AndStatus, because it makes it easy to combine the various timelines so I don't miss anything. I go to … -

@verius @andstatus The more info that is hashed, the more unique the hash is going to be. -

@archaeme looks like its missing the plugin dir from that uri? Unless its using the router -

@verius @andstatus If the URI is a cryptographic hash of notice contents, it should be universally reproducable. -

@verius @andstatus It also would be of use in allowing more seamless alt-account federation for the people that like having 98954 alts/ -

@verius @andstatus Making it unique solves a variety of problems elsewhere as well. Id prefer to have it unique. -

@andstatus @verius @thefaico Yeah, so, if we have that, and the messages have UIDs we know are unique, we can use that as a means of helping detect and suppress duplication. What I'd like to do is have the server send a challenge if the message sent to the API is duplicated, like "we already have a message by this user with exactly that contents in message <uid>, d… -

@bob @archaeme A lot of MRs for GNU social are quite old. It's the main reason I decided to fork rather than submit changes as a MR. -

@verius And that we're in the fediverse is why it falls apart and is insufficient. -

@verius @andstatus Having notices have unique identifiers could probably help solve this. -

@verius @andstatus AndStatus will try resending a status if it doesn't think the server got it. But sometimes it did, and this results in duplication. Seems to mostly be a problem of untidy shutdowns or when its been suspended in the background. -

@verius @andstatus @thefaico I had more than one person comment telling me it was pointless to add something new because the twitter API was "good enough". -

@verius @andstatus In that case it's happening because the client is sending a retry without checking if it doesn't already exist. -

@andstatus @verius @mmn @thefaico He'd be surprised how many people are dead set on using the twitter API despite it's limitations, maybe :/ -

@bob @purplehippo They didn't have anything to hide because the person who served their interests and targetted others was in power. Now that the shoe's on the other foot, they have plenty to hide. -

@verius I dont think there's been a company that's relented to "progressives" that hasn't lost huge sacks of cash. -

@archaeme if someone rebased this, I'd probably merge it into pA. Dont really have time to do so myself for a few days at least -

@purplehippo The latter bit is the big thing. Amazon's lobby efforts represent almost 20% of their actual earnings. They have lobbied HARD in their home jurisdictions to erode labour laws in their favour.
