Reporting incorrect number s in daily stats

[thegr812k]

The following / followers numbers come directly from the user_details results from twitter

17:30:06: Scraping Daily stats for: <your_username>
17:30:06: Stats: Followers / followings: 275:691
17:30:06: Saving: 2021-03-02 17:30 PL 691 275 142 28 0 0 0 18 0 18 0 to C:\Users\twitter\AppData\Roaming\rootjazz\Twitterdub\stats\7c1ac21cf3f44850b589d8f48afd8339.csv

ok so the numbers might have been out of date due to caching, but that wouldn't explain random jumps, just out of date. sorted that. But the numbers come from twitter, so they are displayed as given. Twitter will do caching on it's side as well, so they may not ever be 100% accurate, but these flucuations with no unfollowing is strange.


Will push this update and then can only monitor it. Will get the program to dump the response JSON src from twitter as well, so we can confirm it is coming from twitter.

ok, i new it wasnt correct. Do i need to update or is this being pushed out? Let me know if you need me to do any testing

Sorry forgot to post the link it seems, was sure I did though...

https://rootjazz.com/twitterdub/updatetesting.html

open config dir:

%appdata%\rootjazz\twitterdub\config\

Create a file:
stats_log.txt

Now run the program normally, run a daily stats action, just use the program normally. Keep an eye on the stats, if you notice it wrong going forward (new stats reports, we cannot do anything about the old) submit logs:

HELP > LOGS > SUBMIT

then send your logs ID - the numbers are sufficient (displayed after successful uploading of logs)


This update will log more information so can verify / try to pinpoint where these values are coming from.

Fair enough, but it's a testing version just for you. It's the stable build, with the code I needed to understand what twitter is sending you. Without you running this, I cannot help. As I need that information

Won't work. Logs indicate the numbers are what TWITTER is reporting. The program requests the user_details endpoint and extracts the followers / following numbers from here and writes them to a file. Now this may be true and twitter is sending the wrong numbers. Or the program is doing something wrong and logging incorrectly - both are possible, but I need to see what twitter is returning. Without you installing the update, I cannot
