@prologic@twtxt.net can’t one just link to a keyoxide profile with a link to their Twtxt feed for identity or something?
# follow_notify = gemini://foo/bar
to your feed’s metadata, so that clients who follow you can ping that URL every now and then? How would you even notice that, do you regularly read your gemini logs? 🤔
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Damn! I’m two years late to the discussion 😅 So basically, one could just make a bash script/cron job on the side for pinging non-Http feeds from time to time and the receiving end would get it IF
they check their logs.
# follow_notify = gemini://foo/bar
to your feed’s metadata, so that clients who follow you can ping that URL every now and then? How would you even notice that, do you regularly read your gemini logs? 🤔
@prologic Unfortunately it only work if I pull the feed in debug mode jenny -D
otherwise, it misses things up if I add that snippet of text to links in my .config/jenny/follow
file 😅 Anyway, it was a nice try.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic Hey! I may have found a silly trick to announce my following to people hosting their feeds on the Gemini space using the requested URI
itself instead of relaying on the USER Agent
😂. I’ve copied my current feed over to my (to be) Gemlog for testing. And if I do a jenny -D "gemini://gem.aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt?follower=aelaraji@https://aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt"
and this happens:
A) As a follower, I get the feed as usual.
B) As the feed owner, I get this in logs:
hostname:1965 - “gemini://gem.aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt?follower=aelaraji@https://aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt” 20 “text/plain;lang=en-US”
You could do the same for Gopher feeds but only if you want to announce yourself by throwing in an error in their logs, then you’ll need a second request to fetch the feed. jenny -D "gopher://gopher.aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt&follower=aelaraji@https:/aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt"
gave me this :
gopher.aelaraji.com:70 - [09/Sep/2024:22:08:54 +0000] “GET 0/twtxt.txt&follower=aelaraji@https:/aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt HTTP/1.0” 404 0 “” “Unknown gopher client”
NB: the follower=...
string won’t appear in gopher logs after a ?
but if I replace it with a +
or a &
and it works. There will be a missing /
after the https:
. Probably a client thing.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org this one is hilarious 🤣
@movq@www.uninformativ.de @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @bender You Are AWESOME!! Got my playlist for the week!! 🤘😂
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Brilliant idea! 😂 One way ticket to Venus please! 🤘
@prologic That’s actually nice ! But I imagine one would have to file in a request beforehand and await an approval from HR …etc.
@prologic YES, Please!!!
Where do I download more hours for my days? not having more than 24 hours a day S U C K S !
@cuaxolotl@sunshinegardens.org HAHA! 😆 Nice one!
@prologic I tried hosting my own Matrix server once, I got wrecked! 🤣 and I believe that experience established a good base line for me to avoid self-hosting anything federated (except for a TWTX feed).
Skill issues aside (since I’m willing to learn), my internet speed is a huge limitation (I have less than 1Mb Up) 🫠 Then again, there’s the Running stuff off of my RPI's SD Card
😅 that’s just asking for trouble.
Seriously, I should get a proper Job, at least I’ll be able to afford my curiosities 🙃
@movq@www.uninformativ.de He did! But hey, at least his claws were not out. So we’re good 😂
My cat just had a… nightmare ? He woke up, slapped me in the face then jumped off of the bed giving me the “WTF Just happened Human!?” look. 🤭
@prologic They are but then again Apple’s is doing things Apple’s way 😆 Hint: punishing devs and users for using alternative stores.
@bender F-Droid is a platform/app that lets you side-load/install and serve android apps without the need for Google’s play store’s blessing. I also use Aurora Store to install Play Store’s apps without having to associate my phone with Google account. 🦾 it makes me feel good about myself 🥸
@quark@ferengi.one 😆 I’m trying so hard to overcome the temptations.
I’m SO enjoying the new jenny --fetch-context
😁
Oh boy! I think I stumbled upon a Terminal Candy Shop! 🤤 “Terminal Trove”
