AndStatus v.24.01 "Tap (single click) instead of long tap (tap and hold) to open Context menu" published to the Open Beta testing channel https://play.google.com/apps/testing/org.andstatus.app
Added "Long press to open Context Menu" setting (defaulting to OFF) to the new "Gestures" section of AndStatus settings. So, from now on, by default context menus are opened by Tap ("Single click") on an item. Tapping on a User's avatar is the most reliable gesture. Tapping a body of a message in a Timeline does the same, but in a Conversation view links in a message body become clickable, so tap may launch an Internet Browser or open a Context menu, depending on exact place, where a User clicked message body.
On gestures and their terminology seeĀ https://www.google.com/design/spec/patterns/gestures.html.
Thank you all for helping me realize that this simple change really changes User's experience for good :-)
