I switched away from @ivory because they didn't support @gotosocial and said they didn't have any plans to support it. I guess I should try it again.

@joe @gotosocial It was a technical reason why GoToSocial users weren't able to log into Ivory. Our app was based off of Twitter which didn't use AlphaNumeric Post IDs. Logging in would just crash the app. We put in a lot of work in our low level code to support more than just numeric IDs.

@ivory It's much appreciated.

@joe @ivory @gotosocial it's working pretty well for me so far, although seems there are no notifications (which I don't want anyway)

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 16:41:01

@cms @joe @gotosocial Do notifications work in other Mastodon clients? Do you see mentions in the notifications tab?

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 17:22:50

@ivory notifications work on the notifications tab. I don't get notifications in notifications center, (not sure if I should, I don't really use these). The notifications toggles on my account settings seem to reset to off.

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 17:29:15

@cms Ah ok. If GotoSocial isn't doing anything different there, it should just work. Have you tried going through our process to get them working on Mastodon? tapbots.com/support/ivory/gene

It's a common Mastodon issue for push notifications to just stop working.

@ivory @cms

GtS is doing push notifications differently.
@vyr can explain, she has developed PN in GtS and maintains FediText, a Mastodon client that has working PN. I do not have the tech background, but there seems to be different methods in implementing PN. Mastodon is using an outdated mechanism if I understood correctly.

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 20:47:49

@juergen @cms @ivory short version: GTS uses standards-compliant RFC 8291 Web Push encryption (Content-Encoding: aes128gcm).

Mastodon has, for most of its history, used a draft version of that RFC (Content-Encoding: aesgcm): see perform_legacy_request.

current development versions of Mastodon support the standard version as well: see perform_standard_request. if and when Ivory picks up aes128gcm support, it should start working with GTS Web Push notifications.

@ivory

Totally get that GtS support is not on the agenda, but you might want to reconsider this error message until / if you support aes128gcm in Mastodon, just to reduce people with GtS pinging you about how restarts don’t actually fix it.

@amd @vyr @juergen @cms Yea we are looking into it. 🙂

@ivory

I just turned all these on again 30s ago, and they flip themselves off again after a little while.

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 17:37:08

@cms Ok. We saw @eta's post and will look into what's going on there.

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 17:44:17

@ivory I am aware that I might have some bad local state , because I had Ivory already installed and configured with an old mastodon account, but had stopped using it after I moved to GtS - I saw an update today and just added the new account.

I only was curious about notifications because it's a headline GtS feature from their v0.18 release last week.

I am planning to uninstall / reinstall Ivory later today when I have a bit more time to play with it.

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 17:54:51

@cms Can you try flipping the switches on again? We are going to look at the logs to see what is happening.

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 18:42:46

@ivory just toggled them all on at 17:41 utc

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 18:46:09

@ivory I then deleted the app. Redownlaoded from App Store and then chose reset cache. They were still set on when I went to settings after that.

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 19:09:56

@ivory and they seem to have stayed on.

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 19:49:08

@cms Getting notifications now?

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 20:09:17

@ivory not that I can see

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 20:12:14

@cms Can you try going through the process in that support page I mentioned earlier one more time?

Föderation EN Mi 05.03.2025 20:13:32

@cms Actually we are still in the middle of debugging. Will keep you updated if we find anything.
