I don't think there is any change in the API. My suspension is that after a recent upgrade to this server they either have a bug that they no longer sending an expected SUCCESS response, or it's taking too long to send it, and b then #AndStatus retries to b send it again, and I end up with dozens of the same replies until I realize it and delete it from the #AndStatus outbox. But that's a lot of assumptions on my part. I don't get the multiple replies using the web client or Mustard for Android. (Mustard is super old and hasn't been updated in like a decade, it still OStatus/GNUSOCIAL as StatusNet). #AndStatus doesn't have the same failure when I post a new quip, nor does it when replying to a post using my friendica account that I have set up as GNUsocial/Ostatus.
I know I don't get the repeating replies when I use Mustard, I'm guessing mustard just shoots and hopes for the best, #AndStatus has a retry mechanism.
they don't need to, but they can. As long as someone is willing to buy the data, and consumers aren't making their decisions based on how much that's collected, they just sign or click agree without reading it, why wouldn't they?

Doesn't pass the sniff test. Companies don't need all of this information to sell me shit and the government obviously isn't listening in on everything I do because my door hasn't been busted down yet.

Hmmm, seems to be an in compatibility between recent versions of GNU Social & #AndStatus. I suspect #GNUsocialjp isn't sending a success response that @andstatus is expecting.

I like BuBuRay just fine when WWE was writing for him, but since I have actually seen him, from ROH, to SXM, to his recent TNA & NWA runs where he is writing for himself, he's a dick. And no, it's not because he's "a good heel" he's a fat slob who thinks his shit don't stink.
One of the other advantages of keeping images remote only is you aren't going to be legally responsible for storing illegal content on your server when one of your users follows some idiot on a different server who posts bad stuff.

@djsumdog I work in automotive, Ford and Chrysler are doing this to. If everyone does it there is no reason not to. If they had reason to think enough people cared they'd advertise that their vehicle doesn't.
