@erien @pztrn@f.pztrn.name It looks like Friendica sends HTML-escaped text in a field, which AndStatus expects to be a plain text field. This is why AndStatus shows it as is. AndStatus tries to figure out if the message body is HTML-formatted by searching for presence of both "less than" and "greater than" signs , but it doesn't recognize the text as HTML is this case.
Try to add any html tag to your post ;-)
