AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Monday, 20-May-2019 15:36:01 UTC AndStatus @dansup Last summer I hoped that #ActivityPub Client to Server API for GGU Social will be created. But this didn't happen, unfortunately...
BTW The work on the #AndStatus client side is going on, testing with #Pleroma only so far, see https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/499

AndStatus at GnuSocial.no (andstatus@gnusocial.no)'s status on Thursday, 16-May-2019 05:36:21 UTC AndStatus at GnuSocial.no @baloouriza #AndStatus has an option to show latest notes first in the Conversation view.
Regarding timelines: how do you "Pull to refresh" at the bottom of the list? I didn't see any such Android app yet...

AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Sunday, 14-Apr-2019 19:10:48 UTC AndStatus AndStatus v.47.12 automatic pre-Launch testing at Google Play.
Upon upload of a new app package to Google Play, the automatic "Pre-Launch" testing is being launched in parallel on several physical Android devices.
AndStatus app identifies that it has been launched by the test engine, and it generates test/demo data to make this automatic testing useful and more interesting.
As you can see in this video, AndStatus uses device default language on the first run (in this case - Chinese language).

morph (morph@gs.morphtown.de)'s status on Friday, 12-Apr-2019 09:39:52 UTC morph @lohang Yeah, the web interface does not display images from remote servers. But AndStatus client usually does work with that. Small though :)

AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Friday, 12-Apr-2019 06:24:25 UTC AndStatus @dwaltiz I fixed probable cause of the "lost draft" problem, that you encountered, in #AndStatus v.47.11 (released yesterday). A draft could be lost (unsent and invisible in a timeline) in a case there was another draft saved earlier by the same account.
Now different drafts don't interfere with each other. -
Kristian (z428@social.tchncs.de)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Apr-2019 18:53:40 UTC Kristian @andstatus Yes, it actually is. Plus: I've seen discussions that (a) andstatus has at least preliminary support for ActivityPub, (b) fedilab *does* support friendica in some way because (c) current friendica builds come with ActivityPub support of some sort. I was trying to get these pieces together... π

AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Apr-2019 18:09:29 UTC AndStatus @tom79 I think user's confusion is caused by widely advertised "#ActivityPub support", which in reality for almost all servers (except for #Pleroma, as I know) means server to server communication only. Pleroma is the first Social Network that implemented at least minimal set of features, allowing ActivityPub Client applications to connect to it.

AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Apr-2019 17:43:59 UTC AndStatus @tom79 This is about testing #friendica instance using #ActivityPub Client to Server protocol of #AndStatus https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/499
The error occurs during client registration.
Actually I don't even know if Friendica supports this at all:-)

AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Thursday, 28-Mar-2019 06:19:49 UTC AndStatus @jandor You do have "Resend" menu item for each note.
But I agree that "is not syncable" confuses. I will change that to "Resend all"?! -
AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Thursday, 28-Mar-2019 05:49:17 UTC AndStatus @dwaltiz Funny proposal :-)
I think it's much easier to fix the problem that you encountered (I suspect it's about UI/#UX) yet even _you_ didn't find time to file the issue properly, trying to reproduce it, describing steps to reproduce the issue and attaching screenshots. Just this post that doesn't help to make the app better, unfortunately :-(
Yes, there may be "steps back" (developers call them "regressions") but they occur exactly because I'm rewriting #AndStatus and rely on community members, who take their time to explain, what went wrong...
So, when you are ready to help, please file the bug here and we will substantially discuss it: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues?q=is%3Aissue+sort%3Aupdated-desc
Maybe at that stage somebody will join us with concrete help... -
AndStatus@Mastodon (andstatus@mastodon.social)'s status on Thursday, 21-Mar-2019 15:50:01 UTC AndStatus@Mastodon @z428 As you may see from the discussion it the GitHub issue, the first and maybe the most undefined step in the #ActivityPub #C2S specification is authentication and whoami (account verification/discovery) steps. We agreed on concrete steps and endpoints with pleroma.site developer, but the same probably won't work out of the box with other systems.
Anyway, I'm open to collaboration and aim at creation of really unified API, compliant with ActivityPub C2S. -
AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Sunday, 10-Mar-2019 18:28:43 UTC AndStatus @lanodan @amiloradovsky @kit_ty_kate Yes, #AndStatus really has minimal #ActivityPub Client-to-Server implementation that works with pleroma.site. You can even play with this...
For more details, including current state of this implementation and problems/questions please see https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/499

AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Sunday, 03-Mar-2019 16:42:27 UTC AndStatus #AndStatus v.47.03 "Avatars and Attachments improved" Beta is published, see https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/456
What's new:
1. When some Actor follows (or stops following) me, show detailed info about that Actor, not about my Actor.
2. If an attached video has a preview image, that image will be shown (currently available for Mastodon only). View image / View media context menu item for remotely accessed media files.
Show a text link to a media file, for which even preview image couldn't be downloaded (instead of no attachment at all as before). #502
3. Don't download attached Video by default. May be changed in Settings -> Attachments -> Download attached video
4. Actor's avatar in their profile is shown with maximum resolution.
5. Fixed: Cannot delete a Note's Title (Name) after it was first saved (even in a draft).
6. Fixed: Default notification sound was heard even if set to Silent in Settings. This was caused by changed rules after starting to target Android 9.
Any Android notification (including Vibration and Sound) should show an icon in Notification Area (Android 9 restriction). https://loadaverage.org/attachment/5061991 -
AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Friday, 22-Feb-2019 04:11:15 UTC AndStatus @nestort It appears that AndStatus still cannot show a preview of remote media files that it didn't download. Currently only locally downloaded images/video files are shown at attachments and may be viewed. As a result, media files that are larger than configured in "Attachments -> Maximum size of an attachment" are not shown at all.
We need to store locally a preview image (if it is available) and show that image. Or at least show a text link to the media file, for which even preview image couldn't be downloaded.
I created the ticket for the feature https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/502 -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk@loadaverage.org)'s status on Thursday, 21-Feb-2019 18:33:46 UTC Yuri Volkov @emacsen I mentioned WebFingerId not as a part of WebFinger protocol, but only as an artificially created identifier, helping to figure out the same actors via old-style (Twitter-like...) client APIs (which don't provide globally unique identifiers of actors (users...)).
As we're currently are figuring out, how to use #ActivityPub C2S protocol in the real world :-) I see that WebfingerId isn't really needed in ActivityPub API: Actor's profile has enough information to know both username and hostname of an actor (what constitutes WebFingerId).
I think that you will be interested to read our discussion on this here: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/499

Emacsen (emacsen@emacsen.net)'s status on Thursday, 21-Feb-2019 18:07:42 UTC Emacsen @yvolk @andstatus @thefaico @trwnh @eliotberriot @cwebber Thanks for your thoughtful explanation, I'm not sure everyone mentioned here wants to be part of this discussion but it's an interesting one for me!
I use the term "identities" specifically to reference the "id" property of the AP spec.
And some of the technologies you mentioned (Webfinger in particular) are not part of AP, so I think it's important to mention that.

Emacsen (emacsen@emacsen.net)'s status on Saturday, 09-Feb-2019 05:01:20 UTC Emacsen @trwnh @cwebber @eliotberriot @kity
Maybe I misunderstand the issue but I think part of it is that right now people are okay with having N ActivityPub identities in a way that mirrors their proprietary service life. "Mastadon, PeerTube, Pixelfed" each on their own. But if you moved the bar the other way, to each of those being some sub-stream of your general AP identity, then you'd insist on a client (or c2s model) that was flexible enough to handle it.

AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Wednesday, 20-Feb-2019 15:39:23 UTC AndStatus @emacsen #AndStatus Android client allows you to setup as many user accounts as you wish in several types of Social networks (#ActivityPub is in testing now). And it recognizes the same your Actor in different instaces, showing a combine view of one Actor via several networks, or a view of all your Actors...

AndStatus (andstatus@loadaverage.org)'s status on Sunday, 17-Feb-2019 15:50:27 UTC AndStatus @lynnesbian That it a screenshot made when I only started development, many years ago... And it needs an update definitely :-)
