Hi !Friendica Developers the APIs api/friends/list,api/followers/list,api/followers/ids and /api/statuses/friends, /accounts/[id]/followers, /accounts/[id]/following are still not working in Friendica 06/2022 (see https://git.friendi.ca/lubuwest/Friendiqa/issues/29). They make a request on the table 'contact-relation' with the filter follow=true. However, for all 60000 entries on my server this value is false and follow-updated is always '0001-01-01 00:00:00'. So the return is always an empty list. I also did not found a function in the code that touches these columns.
In src/Model/Contact.php they only deal with the 'contact' table and change the rel column. Wouldn't it be better to query this table instead in the APIs?
Greetings, Marco.

How is this possible if no function sets the 'follow' value to true and the follow-updated? Only the cid, relation-cid and last-interaction columns have reasonable values. Is there some background process missing in my server?

Oh, according to the code in SRC/Model/Contact/Relation.php this list only gets updates, if profile['hide-friends'] is empty. I guess I have set that to true, thats why all entriss have follow=false. I didn't know that the hiding relates to the relationship-table being incomplete and the APIs (which require login) returning an empty array. I find that misleading...

I think that this condition in line 180 to 183 of src/Model/Contact/Relationship.php is an error. How long does it take for the contacts to be refetched and can I test if that condition was the error? Now the setting 'hide friends' is unchecked.
