I wonder how often are remote avatars re-fetched, or checked for changes. @thecanine changed his over 3 or 4 hours ago, and I still see the old one here.

@prologic right but, again, how often? I still see his old avatar.

@fastidious it checks it every time the feed is fetched.

As I said, if it doesn't work, it's a bug 😂

Hmmm 🤔 His feed metadata shows:


# avatar      = https://twtxt.net/user/thecanine/avatar


Which suggests to me he in fact has not changed it yet...

My own shows:


# avatar      = https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/avatar#2dlw72pr7zocas7hdm6bpucrojeuucstut6455rlw56jjoxkiuxa


And yours:


# avatar      = https://arrakis.netbros.com/user/fastidious/avatar#ts5f7glaewmsy2hpuduhqjenqxnavwpaahbozngbghf6m5ya2v5a


So I don't think there's a bug at all. What is missing however is occasionally re-fetching advertised avatars once per day anyway...

... To support feed authors that don't bother with cache busting their advertised avatar. Which (btw @lyse) can be done as simply as:


# avatar = https://url/to/my/avatar#yyyymmdd


I've made sure it's as simple as possible 🤣

@thecanine In color? Yes 🤔 Did you update it from the Web or Mobile app? 🤔 If the later I may have forgotten to add some code on the backend 😂

@prologic I always update my avatars while using the mobile app - they go together. (sorry for the bad joke, couldn't help it)

@thecanine Haha no worries! 😆 I think I forgot to update some code on the API endpoint for updating settings then 🤦‍♂️
