@hikerus Freezing on loading a Timeline page may mean that there is some problem accessing the AndStatus local database. In _my_ local database I have almost 200000 messages, yet I don't see such freezes...
Maybe you could try to move your database to internal storage to improve access time?! (see Settings-> Storage) -

@hikerus I meant that after update of AndStatus it could start syncing just when You started to use it. Hence bad responding sometimes...
This can mean that your device is not good at multitasking. I would recommend you turning off "Sync while using AndStatus“
Regarding your question on "Don't sync old messages.." it clearly says "hours ago", see the screenshot. Maybe translation improvement is needed at https://crowdin.com/project/andstatus

@hikerus How much time passed since you updated the application? I mean, maybe this is temporary event due to some heavy background downloading?!
BTW, do you have automatic sync turned on? -

@hikerus What do mean by "Blocks totally”? It doesn't respond on clicks... ?!

How to implement Groups/Lists properly in AndStatus?
Today I reread our old discussion at https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/248 , which contains, in particular, comparison of this thing's concepts in different social networks and added Pump.io to the comparison.
So now this post compares GNU Social, Twitter and Pump.io: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/248#issuecomment-219826572
Any advises, additions or corrections? -

@lasagna Maybe in the Home combined timeline we could mark somehow, for which account each message was downloaded?!
Some of messages can be downloaded by both accounts... -

@5n1pp3r5 Please don't turn automatic syncing off for AndStatus. Far better is to set "Default syncing frequency ” to several hours to avoid high load of the device and your waiting, when you start using it

@jim Lately I tried AndStatus on my old Nexus One, which is still alive and is used mostly for such tests.
I found out that if in Settings -> Syncing I do the below, this old phone is quite responsive:
1. Turn off "Sync while using AndStatus"
2. Change "Default sync frequency" to several hours
and make sure automatic syncing is on, so all hard work will be done, when you don't use the device -

@roland It's interesting, did your wife or you tried to search for an answer in the AndStatus User Guide?
I'm figuring out if extending it will really worth an effort. -

@roland Seeing that message context menu is too long already I moved Follow/Unfollow actions to the "Users of message” list, as other pals noticed.
Maybe I have to duplicate this action in the Message context menu also... -

@jim Hi, last year you said that it stopped working for you after a couple of days. How long did it work properly this time? Which version did you use?
You know, without your close involvement I cannot improve such things, because I personally never got in such situation for years. Device reboot was maximum that I had to do to fix some problem, years ago...
Most people, naturally, are lazy to take part in the long investigation: they usually reinstall AndStatus and this cures everything. -

It turns out that creating a better ”GNU Social” is not an easy task. Follow our discussion at https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/419 -

@mararm For interaction with AndStatus GNU Social is using protocol, borrowed from Twitter many years ago, when people didn't think about putting "activity streams” into real software yet. That protocol doesn't have ”favoriting activity ” also.
As we see, in order to compensate this shortage, GNUSocial developers invented a hack: a server really sends "favoriting activity” to AndStatus, but not in the machines understandable form (as modern protocols, e.g. in Pump.io, do) but as a normal post, only prepending it with words: ”User favorites something by...". I hope upcoming implementations will allow AndStatus understand user's actions correctly and clearly show you ONE post, having several "likes" by different users, and not several posts, looking suspiciously similar...

@vitnir I investigated sending Direct (Private) messages in AndStatus: they are done correctly using ”direct_messages” API that should ensure the message will be interpreted as a private message on a server side.
As I see @kassiopeia sent you public message, and this is why you had "Reply” menu item in AndStatus in the first place. For private messages you would not have the Reply option, only ”Direct message”.
In addition, testing Direct messages on Loadaverage.org server, I found out that this feature doesn't work properly: the server posts my Direct message successfully, but obviously encounters some internal problem and return HTTP 500 INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR.
Conclusion: confirming what I was told earlier by GNU Social developers, Direct messages in GNU Social (almost) don't work. -

Tip: To automatically reduce image size on sending, install "Send reduced" application
https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=send+reduced&fdid=mobi.omegacentauri.SendReduced and during image attachment select "Get reduced photo" item in a list of sources/providers (see it on the attachment). https://loadaverage.org/attachment/3248869 -

@vitnir This bug was fix for Pump.io.
Where did you encountered it now? Please give more details. That reply, which became public anyway :-)
You could post this to my email also... -

@hermitninjamonk This is a question to the admin of LoadAverage: @pztrn
Maybe this is related to financial problems that the instance has?!
