#Fedilab 3.16.4 has been published in beta.
Added:
- Cache home timeline in background (default disabled -> New settings category and it is per account) / you can change the frequency (default every hour)
- Auto-fetch missing messages for the Home (default disabled -> in Settings > Timelines)
- Automatically switch between tabs when searching
Fixed:
- Some crashes
@apps
So far the position in timeline is now very solid, even after restarts (to test) and a night sleep. Thank you!
One thing that I now notice, if I boost a message, the arrow is colored blue. If I see that message later again, my boost is not visible at all until I open the message. Is this expected behavior or a bug?
Android 13 Fedilab 3.16.4
@Lon
It seems the cache failed to be updated. Or maybe it was a boost from a boost?
@apps
It was not a boost. I have tested it now: I like a message and the star is yellow. I exit Fedilab and when I come back after a while to the timeline, the star is gone, until I open the message. I see the yellow star. If I then go back to timeline the star stays yellow... only until next time.
I have tried with enabled and disabled "clear cache when leaving", it made no difference.
Not a big problem for me personally, but perhaps not the way you want it to work.
@Lon it only happens when adding to favorites? Is it for all timelines? What happens if you like a message - force kill the app and restart. Is it still in favorites with the yellow?
@Lon
First screenshot is not from fedilab. It's a normal behaviour because the message was cached without votes. Just click on refresh.
@apps
The first screenshot is from other app with timestamp to show that it does not show later in Fedilab, and is proof that I voted.
Not after refresh, not after empty cache, not after kill app.
I have tried this multiple times.
@Lon
"Tap here to refresh" should fix that.
@Lon it only happens from profiles?
@Lon also, let time between tests. Poll federation takes time. So the API will return not voted while it was. It's the same for follows.
