@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Wow! 😮
@darch@neotxt.dk Got an example request?
Does this make sense? Like my post will contain something like:
Hey @<darch http://darch.dk/twtxt.txt> blah blah
@darch@neotxt.dk But this is what I’m confused about. Why would my Twt contains a reference to http://darch.dk/social
instead of http://darch.dk/twtxt.txt
– which the later is what I @-mentioned
? 🤔
I’m willing to get that Google™ is losing ad revenue from sponsored advertising and sponsors of Youtubers.
See, even a video I was just watching on Youtube just now, the guy said:
THanks for Surf Shark for sponsoring this video, it keeps the content free.
So that basically tells me that Google™ advertising on Youtube™ is utter bullshit. I have a funny feeling they’re (Google™’s) crack-down on ad-blocker is just an internal reaction to a losing battle with their ad revenue streams in the declins from their ad business.
As an aside @movq@www.uninformativ.de and I were yarning about this before… The reason this form of advertising works so well is “brand awareness”. There’s some interesting content, and you don’t mind that the guy or gal is sponsored by some company and they happen to make mention of it and even go into a special part of their video (without being annoying about it). You don’t even fast forward or anything because you already like their voice, and they’re not being completely obnoxious about what they’re promoting, and what they’re promoting isn’t complete garbage, malware or worse.
@darch@neotxt.dk I needn an example of where this breaks down I think. Do you happen to have one? 🤔 By all rights, looking at the code paths, the issue raised really doesn’t make sense to me. The Source is the Twt permalink on the source pod that contains an @-mention
of the target’s Twtxt feed. So that should validate just fine hmm 🤔
@darch@neotxt.dk Hmm need to look into this 🤔
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Same ! The most powerful form of advertising for me is word of mouth and research👌 Not ad banners which I never look at (cause I’m blind) let alone click on! 🤣
@movq@www.uninformativ.de This whole thing is a but nutso though isn’t it? 🤔 I mean seriously, online ads never worked in the first place did they?! 🤔 Or are “we” just a special breed?! 🤣
@darch Yeah because it doesn’t have a Link header
SO now Linux GIzmos a website that I regularly like to subscribe to and read via RSS/Atom -> Twtxt has now suddenly gone down this path of “Please disable your adblocker, pretty please, because ads help support us!” – Geez christ! 😱 🤦♂️ The answer is “fuck no”. Not only can your ads not be trusted as you have no control over them, they can be downright dangerous too! 🤬 Fuck me 🤦♂️ Wtf is going on here?! First Youtube, now some random little site?!
@linux_gizmos@feeds.twtxt.net Oh my god! 😱
yarnd
... What would a single-user mode pod look like?
I’m also running my pod with open registrations disabled.
yarnd
... What would a single-user mode pod look like?
@darch fair enough 🤗
Question for anyone still running yarnd
… What would a single-user mode pod look like?
If you mention @this@darch.dk it might work, bit weird though 😅
I can see that your web page https://darch.dk/social has a <link rel="webmention" href="https://webmention.io/darch.dk/webmention">
in the page’s<head>
which his good. But that is not what you’re linking to in your post, so that won’t get sent a WebMention
If you have a look at any of the feeds on my pod, they all respond with a Link:
header in the response.
The reason this is not working, is there is no Link
header on your feed that you’re mentiong: https://gist.mills.io/prologic/fc5290f62c07494590a7e4bc2804c126
@darch It should work with any endpoint but there’s a condition around whether it fires a WebMention or not
@darch@neotxt.dk No I mean, what do we want to achieve with WebMentions that doesn’t already work across pods in yarnd
? One issue I see is adoption.
@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club Bahahahahahaha 🤣
Man I”m really tired today / this week 😪
