For me this seems to have resolved itself since Ubuntu-distributed Firefox was updated to 84, though for all I know, it may have just coincided with some change implemented at Twitter’s end.
@agnivade Oh I see, so it’s a result of conflicting indicators (”away” vs. being active) from the user. I’m trying to recalibrate my expectation based on this, but it’s difficult.
My immediate thought is perhaps (in the problematic case) sending the notification, but then clearing it only once I start typing (typing appears to have an event associated with it, at least based on the logs) would be better than the immediately clearing ghost notification, but you’re right, this is more complicated than immediately apparent.
Some UI/UX design wizardry would probably be needed to eliminate the possibility of mixed user signals, if at all possible. I don’t have a good solution for now, so feel free to close the issue if you deem it appropriate.
Yup, your description of the issue is exactly right @agnivade, and thanks for looking into this!
I set up the two users in parallel windows. Sending a normal message as userB this way does not trigger the issue (I do get a notification on userA’s phone, but it doesn’t go away by itself), but that’s because userA’s window is (obviously) not active, since I’m typing in userB’s window. The notification is only cleared once I activate userA’s window.
But I can trigger the issue by using (for instance) /echo 'hello A' 4 instead (as userB), then hopping on to activate userA’s window during the 4-second delay, so that userA’s window is active when receiving the message. That’s the crucial bit: the receiver’s window is active when receiving the message. If his status is ’Online’, there’s no push notification (as expected), but if it’s ’Away’, that’s when I get the ghost notification.
Here’s server log and MPNS log during one minute where (as userB) I first send a normal message, then (at about 30 seconds) using /echo.
Yes, this is still reproducible here with the current server (v5.29.1).
Here’s the server log and MPNS log during which
- I switch log level from error to debug
- I send one ”hello” message to a bot (from the web UI)
- the bot responds with one message
- I switch log level from debug back to error

Steps to Reproduce:
- install .deb package
- run
debsums -s
Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes
I’d like to resurrect #37762: the checksums for .desktop files included in the .deb archive fail to pass post-install.
$ debsums -s code
debsums: changed file /usr/share/applications/code.desktop (from code package)
debsums: changed file /usr/share/applications/code-url-handler.desktop (from code package)
This happens because the postinst script calls desktop-file-install for the .desktop files, which adds an X-Desktop-File-Install-Version entry to them, and hence the checksums change.
I don’t know why the desktop-file-install call is there, as including the .desktop files in the deb archive is sufficient to have them installed (in their proper place under /usr/share/applications/), with the checksum intact.
I built the package with just those desktop-file-install calls removed (see below), after which the checksums pass post-install (with no other changes that I can see).

All right, looks like this is VSCode issue #37762 (and MD5 usage is #99760).

Checklist
- I am using the latest version – v0.22.1
- I checked, but didn’t find any duplicates (open OR closed) of this issue in the repo.
- I have read the contribution guidelines
- This issue contains only one bug. I will open one issue for every bug report I want to file.
Steps to reproduce the bug
- Disable ”Start main player in fullscreen” in NewPipe settings
- Have a somewhat slow-to-load video (for whatever reason)
- Open the video in Newpipe
- Before video details (such as duration) have loaded, tap to switch to fullscreen
Actual behaviour
The playback controls remain on screen while the video plays, I have to tap once more to make them go away.
Expected behavior
The playback controls should disappear like they do when switching to fullscreen after the video details have loaded (and playback has begun).
Screenshots/Screen recordings

Device info
- Android version/Custom ROM version: Android 10 with OneUI 2.5
- Device model: Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e
I’m affected by this too, in Ubuntu 20.04 with Firefox 83.0+build2-0ubuntu0.20.04.1.
Tested nightly (85.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64) with a clean profile, and the issue remains.
Steps to reproduce
./firefox -no-remote -profilemanager./firefox -no-remote -profilemanager, select the previously created profileWhat happens
None of the three tabs load any content. The firefox process also doesn’t end after closing this window with the non-working tabs, I have to Ctrl-C out of it.
Further info
Upon subsequent starts, Nightly does appear to correctly load the tabs, whereas for my main Twitter profile and FF 83.0 no amount of restarts seems to help; instead I have to open another tab and open m.twitter.com in it, then click on the home button to have the home tabs load (and close the first, still stuck set of home tabs).
