2022-10-28T11:59:18Z	yarn looks like twtxt cloud, it's interesting. I'm an illustrator so I'm curious how it store images.
2022-10-28T12:04:46Z	(#lhndzgq) Fonts looks bit compressed in Windows.

2022-10-28T12:08:07Z	(#lhndzgq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> haha sorry it doesn't exist😆 thank you for inviting me
2022-10-28T12:11:06Z	(#lhndzgq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> yeah I checked on macOS and it looks fine, just a windows problem :) Maybe there is a good default somewhere, but if I find it, I'll send out a PR.

2022-10-28T12:17:31Z	(#b6oc3qq) It will be nice if we have preview
2022-10-28T12:20:04Z	(#uth747a) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> yes haha, it was so fun that I got a message outside twitter
2022-10-28T12:22:12Z	(#b6oc3qq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> yeah I mean the post UI in twtxt.net. I'll try to add it when I have time.
2022-10-28T12:26:43Z	(#uth747a) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> haha imo the best platform is one that allows me to interact with the author
2022-10-28T12:32:58Z	(#uth747a) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Very nice, just wanted to "like" this tweet but i couldn't find it haha
2022-10-28T12:35:37Z	(#uth747a) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> agreed, Twitter looks like lost their ui balance because of their ad strategy...
2022-10-28T12:39:32Z	(#n3z2znq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> haha yeah we could simply tell the post author in a reply that we liked their post.
2022-10-28T12:44:00Z	(#b6oc3qq) @<darch https://neotxt.dk/user/darch/twtxt.txt> nice! definitly useful for visual-content guys!
2022-10-28T12:47:00Z	@<darch https://neotxt.dk/user/darch/twtxt.txt> ah yes you are right! we don't need preview because we have editing!
2022-10-28T12:51:01Z	(#b6oc3qq) or, we can just implement this as undo - a shortcut for editing last post. as darch said, we don't need preview actually
2022-10-28T12:52:32Z	(#b6oc3qq) maybe we should keep it 1-step...
2022-10-28T12:55:17Z	(#b6oc3qq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>
Yeah, I think simplicity here is important. I'm just not used to the way things are done here, I've been using twitter for almost 10 years now and I don't realize how inconvenient it is.
2022-10-28T13:11:24Z	Oh I just realized I can upload images directly on twtxt.net. maybe I can upload movies and audio files also

2022-10-28T13:19:51Z	(#umedluq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> That's a great idea! The thing I hate most about Twitter is the inconsistency of the timeline. They rearrange and hide my and my friends' posts according to their importance. It's so stressful😫
2022-10-28T13:20:48Z	(#z2sd2gq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Thank you!
2022-10-28T13:21:29Z	(#zhco2ca) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Excellent! Sorry if I overwhelmed your server disk😆
2022-10-28T13:36:30Z	(#umedluq) I really like my shit posts but Twitter doesn't🥺 There's a slight chance that Eron Musk feels the same way I do😆
I trust twtxt completely because it is just plain text!
2022-10-28T13:52:27Z	(#ytmkyvq) Nice feature! it's useful to try out a bunch of features👍
2022-10-28T13:53:30Z	(#lhndzgq) @<eaplmx https://twtxt.net/user/eaplmx/twtxt.txt> thank you!
2022-10-28T17:33:49Z	@<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>
hi, do you own git.mills.io? I tried to register as a user, but I don't seem to have received an activation email.
2022-10-28T17:47:04Z	(#vnfboya) @<darch https://neotxt.dk/user/darch/twtxt.txt> thank you, I tried to register an account using my GitHub account, but it required email verification. Maybe I didn't need to register...
2022-10-28T17:52:03Z	(#vnfboya) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> thank you! this is no rush. good night!
2022-10-28T19:10:34Z	(#vnfboya) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> now I got activation mail! thank you!
2022-11-05T07:51:25Z	I can't imagine 50% layoff....
2022-11-05T11:49:46Z	working on small ui fix: 
 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/EHi7ypaMcTrQXQf7bpug6.png)
2022-11-05T12:42:02Z	(#gzwdhfq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> deported?😅 thanks for your quick merging!
2022-11-05T12:50:20Z	(#gzwdhfq) haha I got it😆
2022-11-05T12:58:19Z	More and more friends are creating accounts on mastodon, not moved yet though. I had an account on pawoo, mastodon server by pixiv, a long time ago, but that server is closed now. I think portability is a key.
2022-11-05T13:04:58Z	(#6lgtzna) Twitter is still an attractive platform for illustrators. But popular illustrators suffer from harassment, and I believe that Twitter's reduction of staff will have a significant negative impact in the long run.
2022-11-05T13:26:27Z	日本語のツイート？もしてみる。いやツイートではないんだよな…。
2022-11-05T15:15:14Z	(#6lgtzna) @<akoizumi https://social.kyoko-project.wer.ee/> 
I just logged into mastodon and noticed that🤦
2022-11-06T04:49:40Z	(#plcs65q) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> haha yeah, I yarned :)
2022-11-06T04:51:10Z	(#6lgtzna) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>
not sure, maybe adding a drawing feature...?
2022-11-06T06:06:19Z	(#buwvcrq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> No it doesn't :)
2022-11-06T07:29:28Z	(#buwvcrq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> That's exactly what I like about Web 1.0
2022-11-06T07:33:26Z	Just a thought, but it might be possible to create a tumblr or tegaki diary clone in twtxt format. Illustrators upload their work to twitter and pixiv, but I think self-hosting has various advantages.
2022-11-06T07:38:51Z	(#mo4espq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> yeah actually. I think there is room for a dedicated Web UI for artwork
2022-11-06T07:47:58Z	(#mo4espq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> 
I would have to create a new tool like yarn, but I guess it would be like creating a CMS that using twtxt format.
or just create a view that fetches twtxt from yarn and displays it like a portfolio.
2022-11-06T07:51:24Z	(#mo4espq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Yeah exactly
2022-11-07T09:20:30Z	(#mo4espq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> It would be good to make a gallery view like darch is talking about. Also, it would be nice to be able to post images by pasting from the clipboard, although this is trivial.
2022-11-07T09:21:03Z	(#mo4espq) @<darch https://neotxt.dk/user/darch/twtxt.txt> nice!
2022-11-07T10:26:05Z	(#mo4espq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> I think it will be a custom profile view
2022-11-11T12:47:39Z	(#mo4espq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> 
I'm not sure but maybe like this.
 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/xQL77HRo2PpjBPYbLLYsJc.png) 
I think @<darch https://neotxt.dk/user/darch/twtxt.txt> has a better idea of the layout of the portfolio.

At this point I'm thinking it would be better to render portfolios on an external server with yarn as the data source. I think it's still a small number of users who want portfolio functionality in yarn and they might want to customize their view.
2022-11-11T13:05:56Z	writing twtxt parser in deno but copilot suggested whole parse function, oh my god

 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/r6v9ci4d8GcqTiRnvqGPFC.png)
2022-11-11T13:12:05Z	(#n6hmfdq) It looks like copliot already knows what is twtxt. but hmm I should find how to make reply tree and do some regex thing
2022-11-11T13:23:38Z	(#n6hmfdq) Ah gotcha

https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/yarn/src/branch/main/docs/_posts/2020-12-11-twthashextension.md
2022-11-11T14:31:56Z	(#n6hmfdq) I wrote a deno version of hash calculation code

https://gist.github.com/hashrock/e003c7f023bfced46d97170e02ef65ae
2022-11-11T15:06:47Z	Created simple portfolio powered with twtxt.net and Deno deploy. It's so sketchy for now🤦

Demo : https://hashrock-twtxt-gallery.deno.dev/
Source: https://dash.deno.com/playground/hashrock-twtxt-gallery
2022-11-11T15:14:09Z	(#35bnlha) Hmm, I can't see edit / delete button in my another feed
2022-11-11T16:30:05Z	(#35bnlha) @<eaplmx https://twtxt.net/user/eaplmx/twtxt.txt> Deno is a reworked version of Node.js and they are my current employer😋
2022-11-11T16:31:34Z	(#n6hmfdq) @<eaplmx https://twtxt.net/user/eaplmx/twtxt.txt> Great! It's always fun to learn about data formats
2022-11-11T17:26:36Z	(#35bnlha) @<eaplmx https://twtxt.net/user/eaplmx/twtxt.txt> mainly illustrations but I also write some code for frontend. It's fun working for an OSS company
2022-11-12T03:41:01Z	(#35bnlha) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> this feed
https://twtxt.net/user/hashrock-gallery/twtxt.txt
2022-11-12T03:49:19Z	(#mo4espq) @<darch https://neotxt.dk/user/darch/twtxt.txt> A square grid as you have shown seems to be a better UX. I also like the view after clicking on an image.
2022-11-12T03:51:26Z	(#mo4espq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> yeah, I guess it would be like simply filtering markdown image notation with regex?
2022-11-12T04:13:02Z	(#mo4espq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> It will be awesome!
2022-11-12T06:41:55Z	(#mo4espq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> yeah i will!
2022-11-12T07:33:34Z	(#pfuhzpa) @<darch https://neotxt.dk/user/darch/twtxt.txt> haha just use `npm` instead
2022-11-21T06:01:26Z	(#hhxkqdq) looks great!
2022-11-21T07:43:27Z	(#ym74jaa) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Haha, the current front-end JS ecosystem is too huge and slow to install. I still like just plain HTML + small JS for UI tweaks. At Deno company I work for, we have some people who don’t like node_modules and are working on a replacement for Node.js
