Oh my freaking god, Tuba on my branch… just works now? With no warnings or criticals, and no broken layout?
This is a port to Adw.WrapBox (kindly made by @GeopJr), with fixes to Adw.WrapBox and further reworking of Gtk.Box (and Gtk.Window).
And now I hacked up Pango to:
1. finally do per-layout limits on the number of lines (instead of per-paragraph, which makes no sense),
2. do a better job ellipsizing the last line even when the line itself fits, but there are further lines that don't (due the the height limit or line number limit) — this still needs more polish, but it works somewhat,
3. and to finally have a proper way to disable wrapping, PANGO_WRAP_NONE (wanna guess how Gtk.Label.set_wrap (false) was working until now?)

@bugaevc is it clear that ellipsis comes from the app and is not just the end of the post?
@charlag not really, but this is not a new issue, the same happens when you ellipsize content in other ways. Have you seen any other platforms tackle this somehow?
@charlag I guess in the specific case of Tuba, it could do something akin to what Tusky does — see whether the text layout ended up being ellipsized (Pango.Layout.is_ellipsized ()) and if so, show en explicit "expand this" button.
@bugaevc yeah I can't say I love what we do in Tusky. I think a special icon could work to indicate that there's more content
