Föderation EN Mi 01.01.2025 20:46:27 @ivory Why is it, that when I send a toot, refreshing the main feed will sometimes not show it for a long time (like half a minute even with constant manual refreshing)? In the web UI of Mastodon it’s pretty much immediately there once it’s sent. |
Föderation EN So 19.01.2025 13:18:55 @ivory This is still happening with the latest version. Before #Ivory would show the toot I just composed, I was able to open a new tab in my browser, navigate to my instance and read the too there. All while Ivory was still acting like there are no fresh toots to show. After another minute it magically appeared when I tried refreshing for the 10th time 😂 |
Föderation EN Mo 20.01.2025 16:03:38 @lx Mastodon has API limits so we don't actually refresh every time you pull-to-refresh because then you'd end up getting rate limited. We allow a server request a certain amount of times a minute. The website uses a streaming API so it's very different. |
Föderation EN Mo 20.01.2025 17:58:02 @ivory I remember getting rate-limited on the website in the past and it wasn’t a big deal but I can understand the reasoning. |
Föderation EN Mo 20.01.2025 18:11:11 @lx We will look at streaming eventually, but it's all very complicated especially when remembering your last read location is important. |
