2020-11-17T23:56:53Z	(#<p4tylya https://twtxt.net/search?tag=p4tylya>) Hi there, @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> nice work with http://twtxt.net How can I use my self-hosted twtxt.txt file here or connect with a CLI client?
2020-11-18T03:37:46Z	@<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> (#<m56itma https://twtxt.net/search?tag=m56itma>)  Thanks again, but I only had one post before the account malfunction.

2020-11-20T17:13:43Z	(#<aepd6nq https://twtxt.net/search?tag=aepd6nq>) @<oevl https://twtxt.net/user/oevl/twtxt.txt> To build ```twt``` and ```twtxtd``` in FreeBSD:

- Install ```go``` and make sure to add ```~/go/bin``` to your ```PATH```
- Use ```gmake```
- Install ```minify``` (although I think I had not added ```go/bin``` to ```PATH```)
- Install ```pkgconf``` that gives you ```pkgconf``` and ```pkg-config``` 
- ```gmake deps && gmake``` 
- It will run the server, so just ```ctrl-c``` and start using the programs.
2020-11-20T17:55:56Z	@<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> (#<aepd6nq https://twtxt.net/search?tag=aepd6nq>) Sure, I will check the step about “minify” and submit a PR later today.

2020-12-19T16:51:09Z	Posting from the CLI with twt
2020-12-19T17:49:33Z	Using twt as a post_tweet_hook for txtnish to re-post to a twtxt "pod" https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt
2020-12-19T17:52:45Z	Used bash to remove the timestamp of the just -posted tweet to twttxt.txt and passed that to twt to re-post to the configured pod
2020-12-19T18:14:23Z	Doing some housekeeping at gopher://oevl.info as some old folders were being published

2020-12-20T00:08:34Z	@<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Testing if this will be added to the thread just adding the hashtag. #<utwnv7q https://twtxt.net/search?tag=utwnv7q>
2020-12-20T00:10:15Z	@<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> It did, posting from txtnish, nice to know. #<utwnv7q https://twtxt.net/search?tag=utwnv7q>
2020-12-20T00:13:52Z	Enough gophering and twtexting for now, taking a break to enjoy the evening
2020-12-21T00:15:00Z	Yes @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>, I will be cross-posting to twtxt.net, following the POSSE principle https://indieweb.org/POSSE .  #<vjdyupq https://twtxt.net/search?tag=vjdyupq>
2020-12-22T00:40:41Z	(#<agn7y6a https://twtxt.net/search?tag=agn7y6a>) @jb55 @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> I just use Txtnish's post_tweet_hook facility to pass data to other command line tools and cross-post. For now I am using @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>'s twt for twtxt pods and oysttyer for twitter. https://github.com/mdom/txtnish https://github.com/oysttyer/oysttyer
2020-12-22T01:09:50Z	(#<hfp2hca https://twtxt.net/search?tag=hfp2hca>) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Replying in Txtnish to a twtxt thread in a pod is just a matter of adding the hashtag to the reply, isn't it?. Regarding twtxt subjects, is there a spec? #<hfp2hca https://twtxt.net/search?tag=hfp2hca>
2020-12-24T03:09:44Z	Something in my main server, running Ubuntu 16.0.4 at Digital Ocean, broke the network for Docker. After a few hours of futzing around, editing configuration files and doing tests, bit the bullet and spun out a fresh Ubuntu-based Docker-ready droplet from the app Marketplace.
2020-12-24T03:48:59Z	@<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> I agree, should have asked for help. Neither the bridge network nor any other bridge-based custom network allowed the containers to contact external servers, it might have been an iptables issue. #<twflvza https://twtxt.net/search?tag=twflvza>

2021-01-04T02:47:38Z	@<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> I am trying to cut costs, so I deleted all my Digital Ocean droplets. For a month I will be using a free s390x VPS, so I needed to adapt some of my Docker images, scripts and configurations for that architecture. Also took another chance with Traefik Proxy, I ditched it long ago for nginx-proxy, but this time I made it work. #<h5nn5tq https://twtxt.net/search?tag=h5nn5tq>
2021-01-06T18:20:29Z	Following with interest the developer activity regarding the twtxt spec at twtxt.net
2021-01-10T00:35:59Z	(#<yoje5oq https://twtxt.net/search?tag=yoje5oq>) @<felixp7 https://twtxt.net/user/felixp7/twtxt.txt> Chamath Palihapitiya says Megacorps are benching all the talent they can buy so the competition don't get them https://youtu.be/oD65g2RFSHI?list=TLPQMDkwMTIwMjG6KT5kKLs8Og&t=589
2021-01-19T01:24:03Z	I cannot make Twtxt run behind Traefik with an port 80 entrypoint and a loadbalancer port of 8000.
2021-01-19T01:34:59Z	I think there’s a need for a little bit more detailed documentation and examples for both the Docker and binary deployments.

2022-03-17T20:56:55Z	Testing from yarnc!
2022-03-17T21:00:48Z	Hey @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>, back to the pod, is there any documentation about .yarnc.yaml?
2022-03-18T06:28:55Z	@<tkanos https://twtxt.net/user/tkanos/twtxt.txt> I executed `yarnc -U https://twtxt.net login` and after typing my username and password, the program created a .yarnc.yml file with uri and token fields.
2022-12-22T15:35:30Z	(#5s2qvsa) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>  Synergy/Barrier works ok most of the time, better with wired networking. But with as any network service, it depends on the quality of the connections.
