Misleading Recent Status Change #267

Closed zherebilovgg closed 1 month ago

zherebilovgg commented 1 month ago

The description of the variable timestampMillisOfMostRecentStatusChange says: "Value is -1 if the note's status has never changed." Nevertheless, I can see some notes (e.g. noteid 1790437723506921595) for which timestampMillisOfMostRecentStatusChange = -1 but firstnonnmrstatus is not the same as currentstatus, suggesting that at some point the status of these notes did change. Is this a bug?

Thanks for the question.

The feature timestampMillisOfMostRecentStatusChange was added July 2024, it is only not -1 if the note has status change after when the feature was added.
