@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I’ve kept this thread open to think about… But honestly I’m drawing a blank. Do you have any ideas for improvements yourself here? It’s not super clear to me what we should do to make this easier and more useful 😅 I admit myself I also get confused between Match and Term and even though I understand what Query String search is, I tend to think it’s something we can support by “magical detection”™ of the input? 🤔

Does bring up an
interesting question for me though…

would anyone be willing to pay for a twtxt service?

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com That’s the downside of using public services yeah 😢 Yhere is y really a good solution to that 😅

@mckinley I love ZFS though 😅

@mckinley@twtxt.net Yeah I have plans to redo my
infra to be egress only via WireGuard for that reason 👌

@mckinley Thanks! 🙇‍♂️

@bender@twtxt.net There’s stagit which generates static HTML files

@prologic@twtxt.net I remember running yarnd for testing on a couple of different occasions and both times I found all the required command line options to be annoying. If I remember correctly, running it with missing options would only tell you the first one that was missing and you’d have to keep running it and adding that option before it would work.

This was a couple of years ago, so I don’t know if anything’s changed since then. It’s really not a big problem, because it would be run with some kind of preset command line (systemd service, container entrypoint) in a production environment.

@bender@twtxt.net I avoid install scripts like the plague. This isn’t Windows and they’re usually poorly written. I think it’s better to prioritize native packages (or at least AUR, MPR, etc) and container images.

@prologic@twtxt.net That’s good advice. I don’t open any ports to the Internet if I can possibly avoid it. Everything is on Wireguard, even stuff that doesn’t really need to be. It’s super easy to set up on other people’s computers, too. Even on Windows.

Come on guys, can’t we just do Btrfs RAID5/6 already?

@prologic@twtxt.net I looked it up, couldn’t find a proper course/tutorial. 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net I guess, you don’t get to check the logs if you host your feed file on a pubnix …

@bender Fair points 🙇‍♂️

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com This is precisely how (and watching your own access logs for UserAgent) discovery should work 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Haha 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net that’s some service!

@bender@twtxt.net I’ve dropped him a message earlier on Mastodon, will let him know if he replays 👌

Best way to write programs: turn off the computer.

@prologic@twtxt.net I remember when I first ran Yarn on arrakis, it was a mess. Remember I had to start it again from scratch? If I were to run Yarn today, I will have to ask you what -u to use, if I am going to run a web server on it (say, Caddy), and what to do to keep the huge cache Xuu and I like. LOL. Granted, I could figure it out myself after some trial and error too.

To make Yarn install easier? An installer script that would prompt for the settings, generate config, and install the systemd, because, whether we like it or not, the biggest Linux distros around use it.

@bender@twtxt.net No worries! My version is very similar, but it doesn’t rely on fork/exec out to the git binary.

@bender@twtxt.net It does! Yarn supports both gemini:// and gopher:// – The search engine crawls both too 😅
