Note missing from device

[NoelDeMartin]

I've been using Hyperdraft for a while and so far it is working great :).

Recently I noticed a note I have in my computer does not appear in my phone. Just to test, I tried creating a new note in both devices, and they appeared correctly in the other device. So there is something about this particular note that is keeping it from syncing. I created it some days ago and I have updated it multiple times since.

Let me know how can I debug to give you more information. I suppose the issue is that the note is only kept locally, fortunately it's on the desktop device so I can inspect some network request or indexedDB/localStorage if needed.

Seems like you may have found this remotestorage.js bug:

• ItemsMap doesn't match real object remotestorage/remotestorage.js#1187
• Cache not updating remotestorage/remotestorage.js#1188

I think at some stage it syncs but doesn't cache the object somehow, and fails to ever fetch again. It seems also like this doesn't happen on a fresh start but after using it 'for a while' as you mentioned, which complicates replicating the issue.

Anyway, I'm glad you've been using Hyperdraft and also sort of glad you found this. I suspect that rather than being 'kept locally', it has been synced to the server, but for some reason fails to add to other devices (you can try signing in via a private tab to confirm if it's on the server). At the moment, the only solutions I'm aware of are:

• sign out, refresh, sign in
• when the document syncs to the new device, 'touch' it by editing something to make sure it stays (🙄)

Unfortunately this problem exists in all my apps when using remoteStorage. I thought it was because I use Safari, but it seems like it happens with Firefox as well, perhaps less often. Very mysterious and hard to track down. Maybe share your experience in those threads?

Hm I see, it reappeared when I logged out/logged in in the mobile device. To be frank, I can't share a lot more than it happened in Chrome in an Android phone. Seeing that thread it seems like it's not something environment specific, so I'll just leave it here (if anyone from that thread ever wants to dig deeper they'll see this linked on the threads given that you mentioned them).

Thanks!
