Hmm I can't seem to reproduce this issue. Can you share a video?

Also, I just submitted a new v0.8.8 update to the store that will show the error message when the sign in failed. So hopefully we can better understand what's happening

Hey #Beeskie beta users, go try the latest v0.8.0 update and let me know what you think!

Let me know if you have any early feedback. There will still be some improvements before it goes out to the public.

There’s a hiccup with the developer portal for the Microsoft Store and the certification is taking longer than expected. Will update here when the update is available.

I’ll be pushing daily updates to this group to stabilize features. Then they go out to the full public after major issues have been fixed.

This will help avoid sending out updates that inadvertently introduced crashes and major issues.

Please join and help #Beeskie get even better!

Got kicked out of a session when launching the app Β· Issue #14 Β· jenius-apps/beeskie Occurred to Richard here: https://bsky.app/profile/winobs.com/post/3lbudvcg4cs2q. Also happeneed to me. Not related to an update though. It might be related to expired refresh token?

FYI I experienced the issue as well, but it wasn't related to a new update. I think it's related to an expired auth. I will need to investigate more though. Thanks again for raising the issue so I can gather some data. I'm tracking the issue here: github.com/jenius-apps/...

#Beeskie 0.6.11 submitted to the Microsoft Store for certification. Includes stability improvements for users with no avatars and no names on their profiles.

Also improved the signin page with an example of a full handle. The link at the bottom also goes directly to bluesky's app password settings

Hmm you shouldn’t be prompted again, but can you let me know when it happens again? I wonder if there’s an edge case I’m not handling.

26.11.2024 20:12 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

No that shouldn't happen. But there was one update recently where I had to do a one-time reset of credentials in order to fix an auth issue. It sounds like you got that update and so you were asked to re-enter your app password.

From now on, you shouldn't be asked to reauthenticate.

#Beeskie 0.6.10 submitted to the Microsoft Store for certification. Fixing a crash some folks were experiencing due to the Bluesky outages today.

Big thank you to everyone who reported! I'm still learning how to best handle the APIs during outages.

Update will be available in a few hours!

For anyone seeing blank pages on #Beeskie right now, the issue is from Bluesky themselves.

In a future update, I'll add better support for server error messages.
