Twitter feed doesn't show/update anymore on events screen

Bug Reports
#1

REPRODUCIBILITY: 100% (at the moment)
OS VERSION: 4.5.0.21, 4.4.0.58
HARDWARE: X10 II, XA2
UI LANGUAGE: Finnish
REGRESSION: Happened first time about a week ago after working fine for years

DESCRIPTION:

Twitter feed doesn’t update / show anymore on events screen. I noticed that Twitter feed didn’t update anymore on last weekend. I tried to remove Twitter account (btw: settings / accounts tab kind of freezes when deleting Twitter account, however, with some time it appears to delete it). However, after adding the account back, I couldn’t see Twitter section (or the tweets) on evens screen at all. It’s like the account would be on disabled state, even if it’s enabled (and re-created), or it just cant fetch any new tweet content to show anymore. Manual account synchronization, waiting or booting the phone doesn’t help. I’ve also tried to add the account with username and with e-mail address as account name.

PRECONDITIONS:

Have a Twitter account.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

  1. Go to settings and add Twitter account
  2. Make sure that you have selected options to sync/download tweets
  3. Go to Events screen, latest tweets should appear there

EXPECTED RESULT:

Events screen’s Twitter feed should show content and update periodically.

ACTUAL RESULT:

Twitter feed doesn’t show/update on events screen.

It’s surely related to the new expansive API wished by Musk.

I was just about to post about this. Yes same for me

#4

i’ve also got the same problem

And me. It seems like this feature is now dead. Would be really good if Jolla could now replace it with an rss feed(s) of your choice like the old Nokia N9 did.

Oh yes! That’s a really good idea.

I think we can definitely forget the twitter feed directly on the event view.

If that’s the case, I’d still hope that Jolla would at least briefly study if there is a way to make Twitter feed work, or is the (free) API really that closed or even non-existent now?

RSS would be a welcome feature on Events screen, I’ve missed it too since N9 days, but it was 10 years ago… Sad to say but honestly I’m not holding my breath that Jolla would implement RSS feed on events screen any time soon (if ever), as we should have it already there by now :confused: Well, we can still hope for it. Using a separate app (Tidings for example, which is a really great app, don’t get me wrong) isn’t really a same thing as using the events screen to access effortlessly our RSS feeds.

Well, at long Musk is behind Twitter we shouldn’t lose time with his garbage. But that’s my opinion.
