Post #175643

Found the culprit! It was the `max_id` parameter in `/api/v1/timeline/api/v1/timelines/home` endpoint. The code inside Tokodon is as follows: ```cpp // maintimelinemodel.cpp if (!fromId.isEmpty() && !query.hasQueryItem(QStringLiteral("max_id"))) { // TODO: this is an *upper bound* so it always is one less than the last post we read // is this really how it's supposed to work wrt read markers? query.addQueryItem(QStringLiteral("max_id"), fromId); } ``` This code can be searched via `max_id` keyword. You need to comment out the `query.addQueryItem` line and Tokodon will work just fine. I think this is a BUG for the following reasons: 1. `max_id` invalidation failure 2. Lack of retry logic w/o this query item when we know API response (`data` variable) is empty. 3. When user logged out, all such data should be deleted as well. A full logout from the app should've reset this data. A part of me thinks this info was sent by Mastodon server as part of my account info. @tokodon@kde.social @kde@floss.social This is in Manjaro Linux fully updated with #Qt 6.10 This was a fun bug to track though :) #diary #linux #opensource #kde #bugs
