How to send gifs, docs, videos? Using android share or simple file selection. In FaceSlim it can be done using Android share button. Messenger mode

AllanWang commented 4 years ago

What does sharing do specifically in FaceSlim? Uploads or sharing within Frost uses the same mime types as the website, so in messages you are limited to photos. I presume you are talking about something else

Vintic commented 4 years ago

I'm very sorry, I tested it now, and with FaceSlim you can't share local files, except if you are in messenger mode. And I suppose, from this messenger mode can'be extracted file uploading, if it already wasn't implemented, yes?

AllanWang commented 4 years ago

I'll take a look, but it's likely because they are using messenger.com instead of m.facebook's messenger. If there are features gains like that and no problems display wise, I will consider switching over and supporting it

AllanWang commented 4 years ago

Can you actually confirm if the layouts look like they are from m.facebook.com or messenger.com? The two look quite different, and Facebook has not made messenger very mobile friendly

Vintic commented 4 years ago

Layout is definitely from messenger.com - it works better than in browser but not really usable. I just thought if it is possible to parse messenger.com page and extract "upload button". Now, when I checked requests that are sent on uploading, I think it's not so easy)

Do they have the avatars on one side and the info panel on the other? The webpage doesn't seem to scale well, so even on small screens (with desktop user agent) it'll have the side bars. It isn't a good idea to mock any post requests given how easily things break (and bot detection). Reading is slightly more acceptable

Yes, in landscape mode it looks better. Screenshot_20191231_094918
