client.app.bsky.graph.get_known_followers does not use cursor

[JoeGermuska]

I'll be honest, this is probably actually a problem with the BlueSky API, but I couldn't figure out where to file it as an issue there. Will gladly take a pointer.

In any case, whenever I use client.app.bsky.graph.get_known_followers(), the response always has an empty cursor. I've tried it with different values for limit such that there should be a cursor because not all of the known followers have been returned, but the cursor is still null.

It is possible that know followers just fit right into one "page"? So there is no need to paginate results and null cursor means "no more results"

Sorry, I may not have worded my findings clearly. Here's what I see:

actor = [redacted]

resp = at_client.app.bsky.graph.get_known_followers({'actor': actor, 'limit': 50})
print(f"limit 50: response count: {len(resp.followers)}, cursor: [{resp.cursor}]")

resp = at_client.app.bsky.graph.get_known_followers({'actor': actor, 'limit': 100})
print(f"limit 100: response count: {len(resp.followers)}, cursor: [{resp.cursor}]")

output:

limit 50: response count: 50, cursor: [None]
limit 100: response count: 100, cursor: [None]
