Friends are showing as available to follow?

Did any of you ever see, or can reconfirm that when checking your friend's followers list, you see a lot of users that are actually already your friends, but the app is showing them as available to follow? Now since when you open their profile you see that they are showing as your friends, that makes it a bug, isn't it?

What is your workflow with Seestar data?

For me recently I stack it in siril with 1x drizzle at .9 pixel fraction and force 32 bit. Then stretch it until the nebula is barely visible (depends on object) then use seti astro shapening, then graxpert. Then I remove the stars and stretch the starless image. Then split the color channels and in pixelmath combine the G and B channels, call it O. Then do O minus the R/2-4(depends) and then mess with these in GIMP or pixelmath until I get a result I like, from there mess with the colors in gimp, recombine with the stars and run it through graxpert again if needed

are you struggling with polar alignment ?

I just found a quick hack to the process. 😁😁😁 Were you doing the polar alignment this way: Going to advance setting, > mount mode > switch > get polar align deviation. Waiting for the seestar to open its arm, take 3 pictures, platesolve them, then telling you how much deviation you have, correcting, then going back to alt-az, waiting the arm to close. And doing this process 2 or 3 times until you get the proper alignment. This can easily takes 10-15minutes. Then STOP! Do the process once, get your polar deviation, correct it. Then kill the app process on your phone. And just relaunch the app. You will be able to click again on get polar align deviation without closing the arm. And voila, you just save the time the arm takes to open and close. 😁😁😁😁😁

Setting for autofocus interval for the Seestar App

I would like to suggest the introduction of a new option (to my knowledge not existent) where optionally the user can set a time interval for auto focusing during the acquisition. In my experience it does help, at least if the temperature is changing. I have seen a big reduction in FWHM in post processing after a manual stop, AF and then continue acquiring. I did that because I was looking and noticed an image deterioration. But it would be nice to be able to program this. All remote telescopes I have used have this option.

Are tools like Graxpert considered Ai post processing?

To clarify, I mean tools like Ai gradient correction and denoising.

The Magic of Astrophotography

There is something extraordinary about capturing the light of stars and galaxies that began its journey long before we existed. Every image is a meeting point between technology, patience, and a deep sense of wonder for the Universe. Astrophotography is not just about creating beautiful images. It is about pausing for a moment, looking up, and realizing the immense scale of the cosmos and our place within it. Among billions of stars and galaxies, we gain a different perspective on time, distance, and existence itself. With every session, we are not merely capturing celestial objects; we are preserving stories written in light across thousands or even millions of years. In the silence of the cosmos, we find transcendence.

Moving to a n EC Mount and having some problems?

Hello experts. I have a Seestar S30 Pro and trying to move from the default Alt-Az mounting to EC using a Seestar TH10. Whenever I use the EC mount and line up my Lat of 50.5° and then do a Polar alignment. I get a green tick pass from the alignment when I'm within 0.5°. However, the scope rectangle once I have selected any target looks like this ( image), which seems strangely locked over to one side, that forces me to start framing in order to capture any large object. Can some wonderful person help out a learner who is frankly struggling with this issue. I am using 30 sec subs at the image comes out OK, Except it has to be framed each time to overcome this strange off centre image rectangle
