The _problem_ is one of discoverability which I plan to... 2020-07-20T21:18:20Z @ (re discoverability) ... build out a builtin registry for easy @user mention searching as well as recording which clients hit your twtxt 2020-07-20T21:20:36Z Don't forget, anyone new here or that discovers https://twtxt.net that you can discuss issues on https://github.com/prologic/twtxt 2020-07-20T21:34:13Z @ @ (re mentions): Yes if other users are nice and disclose their identity in their client(s) you can see who/what fetches... 2020-07-20T21:35:06Z @ @ (re mentions) ... your feeds. I _might_ add a builtin feature for this to https://twtxt.net/ no idea how I should present it? 2020-07-20T21:36:10Z Hmmm 🤔 I think the `MaxTweetLength` should be configurable here and I should increase it from `144` to say `288`? 2020-07-20T21:48:47Z Re discoverability on https://twtxt.net Please read/comment/discuss [here](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/14) I plan to add this. 2020-07-20T21:57:44Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to https://twtxt.net 😊 Yes! [Go](https://golang.org) rocks 😍 2020-07-20T23:52:08Z **ANN:** [twtxt](https://twtxt.net) now has a configurable `MaxTweetlength` and is by default now `288`. Thank you 😀 2020-07-21T00:20:42Z [Discovering new twtxt users User-Agent data](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/14) is something I want to discuss with the wider community. The technical impl details are easy, but I'm not sure how to present the data on [twtxt](https://twtxt.net). Thoughts? 2020-07-21T00:22:33Z (re Discovering new twtxt users): Some ideas: 1) A new dedicated view/page 2) A "special" internal/builtin feed you can follow 3) Inject discovered users directly into the [/discover](https://twtxt.net/discover) view 4) Something else? 2020-07-21T02:33:47Z @ You're welcome! 🙇‍♂️ And hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 2020-07-21T04:34:25Z **ANN:** No. Everything is not gone. I just fixed a very important cache bug and deleted the cache. _Everything__ will reappear in a few mins at the next feed/cache update (_which runs every 5mins_). 2020-07-21T08:04:35Z @ (re crowded) Haha 🤣 Yeah I've _thought_ about limited the no. of users that a [twtxt](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt) instance (_like this one_) is allowed to have (_configurable by the operator_). What od you think? 🤔 2020-07-21T08:05:17Z @ Hello! 👋 2020-07-21T08:06:42Z @ (re post length): Ahh yes that makes sense in your case. But I _think_ it makes sense to limit the length of posts anyway; you end up with all kinds of problems if you leave it open ended. 2020-07-21T08:09:32Z Going to add a [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) view here soon (_tonight hopefully; AEST tz_) where I will immediate make all the feeds available at https://feeds.twtxt.net available to be followed by new users. 2020-07-21T14:05:46Z **ANN:** [twtxt v0.0.5](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/releases/tag/0.0.5) is out and now running on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🎉 2020-07-21T15:41:35Z @ I made available a bunch more external feeds you can follow. You can now also see them integrated here at [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds). If you want to import more have a look at https://blog.feedspot.com/world_news_rss_feeds/ and add any you want to https://feeds.twtxt.net/ 2020-07-21T15:42:41Z @<8ball https://domgoergen.com/twtxt/8ball.txt> help 2020-07-21T21:40:29Z @ Hello! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 2020-07-21T23:15:50Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 😀 Glad you like it so far :) I'm working on this everyday! I'm also trying to encourage the wider community to grow out instances of `twtxt` and posted about it on [Hacker News](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23911589) 2020-07-22T00:04:27Z Some questions you may have on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net); Q: Will this always be free? Yes. Q: Will there ever be advertising or tracking? No! Q: What personal information is collected about me? Almost none, besides you email for password resets (_which is optional_). 2020-07-22T00:08:02Z For more information on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net)'s privacy see the [/privacy](https://twtxt.net/privacy) policy. Promise is very terse and void of legal jargon! 2020-07-22T00:29:44Z @ `lighthttpd` is also quite good actually :) Used to use it for the longest time! 2020-07-22T01:01:37Z [@felixplesoianu](https://twitter.com/felixplesoianu) just [posted](https://twitter.com/felixplesoianu/status/1285273103237550084?s=20) recently about `twtxt` in general, and I _hope_ I had something to with it! 🙇‍♂️ 2020-07-22T01:03:33Z [@tomoXtechno](https://twitter.com/tomoXtechno) [posted](https://twitter.com/tomoXtechno/status/1284858047412617216?s=20) about `twtxt` too. I wouldn't call [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) "primitive" though @tomoXtechno :) Come check it out! 2020-07-22T01:05:53Z @ Hello! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-22T02:34:32Z @ Hi! 👋 You're welcome! Welcome to this instance of [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) too! 🤗 Are you planning on running your own instance too? 2020-07-22T04:09:08Z 🎉 **New:** Improved the [About](https://twtxt.net/about) page and added a [Help](https://twtxt.net/help) page to start documenting how to use `twtxt` and https://twtxt.net/ for new users that are unfamiliar. Please provide feedback! 2020-07-23T00:30:41Z Bit quiet in twtxt today 🤔 2020-07-23T00:34:34Z Today in my [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) feed; Twitter nukes 70,000 accounts related to QAnon 🙀 Microsoft shuts down a service I never heard of! 😂 And [Coronavirus](https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/) cases tops ~15M worldwide 😢 Oh my what a day! Happy twt'ing 🤗 2020-07-23T02:52:53Z 🎉 **NEW:** New feature to improve discoverability. Basically the server now tracks new potential followers by parsing the `twtxt` User-Agent (_if valid_) and posts this on a special feed [twtxt](https://twtxt.net/u/twtxt) (_which you can follow_)... 2020-07-23T02:53:51Z Re (new Followers feature): In addition your "Followers" list on your [/settings](https://twtxt.net/settings) are also updated as new potential followers are detected. 🤗 Happy twt'ing! 2020-07-23T03:40:58Z **ANN:** [twtxt v0.0.6](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/releases/tag/0.0.6) is out and now running on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🎉 2020-07-23T05:34:19Z And it works! Yay (Followers feature): > FOLLOW: @ from @Felix using txtnish/0.2 2020-07-23T06:52:10Z @ (re Replace Twitter): Now that would be quite funny now wouldn't it? 🤣 I don't expect it to at all, but you never know with these organic, decentralised things (_oh wait that's what the Internet and Web was suppose to be in the first place! 😂_) 2020-07-23T07:47:28Z @Felix (re twtxt usage); I even notice your response to my notice :) https://twitter.com/felixplesoianu/status/1285801786683555840?s=20 Thanks for the positive feedback and affirmation! 2020-07-23T07:48:42Z @ (re twtxt usage); I even notice your response to my notice :) https://twitter.com/felixplesoianu/status/1285801786683555840?s=20 Thanks for the positive feedback and affirmation! 2020-07-23T08:15:52Z @ You're welcome ! 😎 LMK if you have any great ideas for improvements to existing features or new features 😉 2020-07-23T08:16:42Z @ Hello! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-23T12:11:45Z @ Happy Friday to you too! (_although it's still Thursday evening for me 🤣_) 🙌 2020-07-23T12:12:51Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-23T12:14:52Z @ Hello there! Glad to have you in our growing `twtxt` community 🤗 2020-07-23T12:20:57Z @ Hi! 👋 Thanks for following me on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-23T14:24:30Z @ Oh! 🤣 I see! What TZ are you in? 2020-07-23T14:27:58Z 🎉 **NEW:** With the latest software update to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) you will now see in [/settings](https://twtxt.net/settings) your "Followers". Amazingly I have 11 followers already, some of which are external to here! 🙀 2020-07-23T23:56:14Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-24T02:03:01Z Re: [Twitter Is Considering Subscriptions Amid An Advertising Slump]( http://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~3/fRaN9xUp2l4/twitter-is-considering-subscriptions-amid-an-advertising-slump) Well you don't say! 😂 2020-07-24T02:04:38Z Re (Twitter considering subscription): Who would have _thought_ that "Social Media" backed by advertising business models where users are in fact their product would ultimately start to fail?! 😱 Get on the [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) band-wagonn! 🤗 2020-07-24T04:43:07Z 😷 So apparently doctors in Australia are sending anyone that have typical and obvious common cold or flu like symptoms To get COVID-19 tested! 😳 Naturally this is overwhelming local testing laboratories from actually testing things that are far more critical! 🤷‍♂️ 2020-07-24T05:25:43Z @ (re Social Media Subscriptions) Yeah I agree! I was mostly commenting on the astonishment of advertising models 😉 I plan to do something similar to Micro.blog with [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) like paid hosted instances. 😁 2020-07-24T07:03:53Z @ (re Brisbane) Yeah we're going okay in this little part of the world Australia/Brisbane! Things are going back to normal now and settling back down. What part of the world are you from? 2020-07-24T07:05:31Z @ What?! You were expecting another software update already? 😱 Its coming! Hopefully with a new UI/UX update! But bare in mind there are silent updates made every few hours -- e.g: the spacing between posts on Desktop has been fixed already! 🎉 2020-07-24T07:09:28Z @ Hey! 👋 Glad to have you onboard! I would encourage you to bring across some of your acquittances you talk to on other forums here and start having `short-form` conversations 😀 2020-07-24T07:39:52Z @ (re [Slingcode](https://slingcode.net/)) I don't get it 🤔 Can you explain it like I'm 5? 😀 2020-07-24T10:57:12Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 -- Its `short-form` posts, decentralised, very simple, no tracking, no advertising; bit like Twitter™ but not 😀 2020-07-24T11:40:05Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-24T11:40:22Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-24T12:48:25Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 -- Can I ask; Where did you see it trending? 😊 2020-07-24T12:55:05Z 😱 Is [Twitter](https://twitter.com) now effectively a "closed system" ![](https://i.imgur.com/DcmQnlm.png) 2020-07-24T12:57:07Z re (Twitter landing page); No you just have to go to https://twitter.com/explore if you don't have an account! 🤣 (_non-obvious_) 2020-07-24T13:00:37Z @ [posted](https://twitter.com/johanbove/status/1286550592823975936?s=20) on [Twitter](https://twitter.com)™ -- You're welcome Johan! Hope to see you in the `twtxt` community 😊 2020-07-24T13:02:30Z @ (re Trending) Oh my! 😱 I'm a trending Developer on [Github](https://github.com) 😯 2020-07-24T13:09:04Z 😍 😱 🙀 It's very humbling to see that somehow I (_the developer of_) and [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) have somehow hit the #1 spot on [Github](https://github.com) Trending Developers. ![](https://i.imgur.com/RL3bQAB.png) 2020-07-24T13:13:09Z @kasra471 [posted](https://twitter.com/kasra471/status/1286270495697129473?s=20) on [Twitter](https://twitter.com)™ -- Thanks! I'll have a read 😊 2020-07-24T13:46:06Z @ (re UA strings) Hah! Yeah I built a feature into [twtxt](https://twtxt.net) such that the backend automatically picks these up and posts to a special feed @ and updates your account's "Followers". Its quite neat :) Also hi @ 👋 2020-07-24T13:47:46Z 🎉 **NEW:** Out of frustration for myself, I added a tiny/teeny UI/UX change to the timeline view. You will now see a `[Reply]` link where it will conveniently fill out the text box at the top for you with `@ ` and automatically focus you there ready to type. Enjoy! 🤗 2020-07-24T13:50:52Z @ (re Reply feature) You're very welcome! Hopefully everyone will find it useful! cc @ @ 2020-07-24T13:51:59Z Next up is `@mentions` I think. And tag extraction from posts. Let's make discoverability even better! 😂 2020-07-24T14:01:14Z @longkey1 [posted](https://twitter.com/longkey1/status/1286598042020220928?s=20) on [Twitter](https://twitter.com)™ Translation: "twtxt I like it very much, but it doesn't seem to be very popular. Too bad." -- Like everything new and shiny, its not always popular at first! Give it a go! 2020-07-24T14:40:50Z @ Yes [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) most certainly does. However there is a catch; since a "fetch" is not associated with any one user, it's impossible to say "who" follows your feed on an `twtxt` instance. Something to work out perhaps? 2020-07-24T14:53:40Z @ (re house cat) I have one! It prowls around and wrecks things! 🙀 Why do you want to be a house cat? 🤣 2020-07-24T15:14:19Z @ Glad you like the `[Reply]` feature :) 2020-07-24T22:05:10Z @ external feeds are created over at https://feeds.twtxt.net which are periodically pulled in to populate the [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) view 😃 2020-07-24T22:10:44Z @ looks like you have. New follower here on [twtxt](https://twtxt.net) 😊You can follow the special feed @ or check your new “Followers” in [/settings](https://twtxt.net/settings) 😎 2020-07-24T22:15:51Z @ (re include URL of followers) Yes this is def a possibility. You could also follow the social feed @ of any [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) and watch for mentions of yourself 😀 2020-07-24T22:21:00Z @ (re checking your twtxt client) oh! This is similar to @ ? 2020-07-24T22:33:05Z 🙃 Exciting news! Looks like [we're getting serious about building a iOS App](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/24) Thanks @ 😎 2020-07-24T22:36:27Z @ Hahaha 🤣 Are you implying that [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) is a VC funded company with millions of 💵 and we just happen to have hired some excellent marketing folks?! Hah! 😂 #twtxt #humour 2020-07-24T22:39:15Z @ (re std config for twtxt clients) Yes! This is very similar to [twet](https://github.com/quite/twet) (_which I contributed to a few bit recently, it's a nice CLI client_). I'm _thinking_ of doing this for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) whereby you can export your account... 2020-07-24T22:40:23Z @ ((re std config for twtxt clients) Where you can export your "account" as a `config.yaml` and import it into other clients. You know in case you don't like [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) specifically or you do and you just want to use multiple clients : ) 2020-07-24T22:56:17Z 🎉 **ANN:** New version of [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) [v0.0.7](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/releases/tag/0.0.7) is out! Highlights include a `[Reply]` feature for posts, a special @ feed for internal events, improved UI/UX and loads of bug fixes! Enjoy and happy twt'ing 🤗 2020-07-24T23:13:17Z Plan for the weekend: Build out more neat features for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 😊 Can't decide between a) `@mention` and `#hashtag` parsing and discovery or b) A JSON/HTTP API for a potential Mobile iOS App that _may_ be coming? Any ideas? 🤗 2020-07-24T23:14:30Z Re (weekend plans) Or c) Figure out how Web Push works and build Web Push notifications into the [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) web client instance. But this also depends on parsing mentions to be useful 🤔 2020-07-24T23:42:37Z @ (re great idea) Great idea to which thing? 🤣 a, b or c? 😂 2020-07-25T00:06:26Z ❓**Help**: Added a new section ton the [/help](https://twtxt.net/help) on "Formatting your posts" which btw for those familiar actually supports [Markdown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown) (_although don't use the full feature-set as `twtxt` is still a line-oriented system!_) 2020-07-25T04:43:44Z @ `Antonio Rodrigues invited you to join the team: "Mobile twtxt"` 👈 Got your invite thanks! This Mobile App (iOS) for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) is _really_ gonna happen! Yay 🎉 2020-07-25T05:03:38Z Yes 2020-07-25T05:14:27Z @ Looks like it 😎cc @ 😍 2020-07-25T07:25:37Z @ (re include URL of followers) I know followers and mentions are not the same 😊 Not sure what your point was? 🤔 2020-07-25T07:27:11Z @ (re std config for twtxt clients) Yes! I was thinking the same too. Why don't you help us both here and the general `twtxt` developer which probably only consists of @ and myself (@) right now by filing an issue to document this on the project Issues? 2020-07-25T07:28:56Z @ (re things on your mind) Haha 🤣 Why don't you share them with us? 😊 Alternatively the backend could rotate the `Placeholder` text on the `text` input? 🤔 2020-07-25T07:29:31Z @ Also Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-25T08:50:17Z @ Happy Saturday to you too! 😎 2020-07-25T09:23:10Z 🎉 **NEW:** New _sub_Feed(s) feature whereby you can create new feeds (_call them personas if you want_) associated with your account and then you can "Post as" those feeds. 2020-07-25T09:31:50Z Re (new sub-Feeds) Simply navigate to [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) where you can create your own feeds that you control and can "post" as. Think of this as interest topics, subtwts or special interest groups :) Please give me feedback if you try this out! It's brand spank'n **NEW**! 2020-07-25T10:13:07Z @ (re fetching from [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) users...) Yes I understand what you're saying. Do you mind filing an issue for this on the [Issues](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues) page? This can be solved easily, it just really depends on the implementation details. 2020-07-25T10:13:53Z @ (re filing issues) https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues Thanks! 2020-07-25T10:54:50Z @ Thank you! I'll respond there and if trivial enough will probably implement it shortly :) Out of curiosity do you have many fetches from [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) at the moment? The backend (_by default_) fetches/polls feeds very ~5m. 2020-07-25T12:18:59Z @ (re fetches from twtxt.net) Fair enough. I'll have a read of your [Issue](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/35) hopefully we can come up with something! The original [twtxt](https://twtxt.readthedocs.org) is a bit sparse, but that's something I hope to influence... 2020-07-25T13:08:34Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome back! 😎 Have you seen https://twtxt.net/ yet? 😊 2020-07-25T13:32:47Z @ (re polling interval) Yeah you're probably right. I developed this thing quickly (_as you know_) and am iterating quickly. What I'd like to do is have a sort-of back-off internal algorithm where feeds are only polled based on the frequency of their updates. Make sense? 2020-07-25T14:11:47Z @ (re polling) The problem is I borrowed a fair bit of the "feed cache and fetching" code from @ 's [twet](https://github.com/quite/twet) (_which I also spent a bit helping improve_). I _think_ the feed cache would have to be refactored somewhat for this (_plus other benefits_) 2020-07-25T14:20:34Z @ (re `HEAD` req) Yeah that would also save a few "full fetches" provided all sources of feeds correctly implemented `HEAD` 🙃 Do you want to have a go at this? You'll want to patch [these lines](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/blob/master/cache.go#L105-L131) 2020-07-25T15:07:57Z @ (re contributing) Yes 😂 Because you're a nice person and willing to discuss technical things! 🤣 2020-07-25T22:03:54Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 😎 2020-07-25T22:04:32Z @ Hey hey! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 😎 2020-07-25T22:24:44Z @ (re tw.txt) Is that even a valid TLD? I can't find it in my Domain Registrar 🤣 2020-07-25T22:27:16Z @ (re CLI) I am one such command-line asshole 🤣 I'm an old school UNIX engineer, and ai 😍 the command-line and all things UNIX principles 😊 -- That being said however, one has to be realistic or you limit potential use by others... 2020-07-25T22:29:00Z @ (re twtxt.net CLI) So that being said... Yes there are plans in the works for a CLI. It will likely be two things. A traditional [twtxt](https://twtxt.readthedocs.org) command-line client with a similar feature-set to @ 's [twet](https://github.com/quite/twet) ... 2020-07-25T22:30:29Z @ (re twtxt.net CLI) ... Plus a command-line client that uses a (_yet to be written_) API to talk directly to a [twtxt](https://twtxt.net) instance. Think of all this as "I want to just use a file, and host it myself", or "Oh I love twtxt.net but sometimes I want to use the CLI". 2020-07-25T22:41:04Z @ Hello! 👋 Just saw you add your feed to @ 😎 Welcome to the (_now_) growing twtxt community 🤗 2020-07-25T22:46:31Z @ (ree new RSS feeds) Feel free to add them to [feeds.twtxt.net](https://feeds.twtxt.net) too 😊 It's a free service that consumes RSS/Atom and produces twtxt feeds 😎 2020-07-26T00:15:46Z On [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net)'s sub-Feed(s). This new feature was born out of two use-cases. For operators to post as @ @support and @help; but also an idea that came from @ to help new and existing users create special interest feeds or topics... 2020-07-26T00:17:00Z On sub-Feed(s): To create a new Feed, navigate to [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds), give your feed a name and hit Submit. Now you can post as that feed in the "Post as" dropdown. This lets you create feeds of special interest or topics. Happy twt'ing! 🤗 2020-07-26T00:27:03Z @ (re Ansible / Docker) [Docker[(https://www.doker.com) is pretty awesome really 😊 I mostly use it as a packaging tool however, and distribution to production. It's quite easy to learn and get the hang of. 2020-07-26T01:27:31Z @cook Hello there ! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 — Your first post is just “lol”⁉️🤣 You can do better! 😆 2020-07-26T01:29:46Z @ Hello there ! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 — Your first post is just “lol”⁉️🤣 You can do better! 😆 2020-07-26T01:55:41Z @ yes of course [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) works! 😁 If you have any feedback or suggestions let me know! 2020-07-26T01:57:24Z @ (re notifications) This is coming in an upcoming release ! For now follow the @ feed 😎 2020-07-26T02:22:17Z @ (re reducing manual ops) Yup this is why I have several production [Docker Swarm](https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/) clusters, supporting services and tooling... 2020-07-26T05:46:42Z I blogged about [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) to talk more in depth about why I created this and how and the vision I have for this platform. Check it out at: https://www.prologic.blog/2020/07/26/twtxtnet-a-decentralized.html 😎 2020-07-26T05:47:54Z You can also follow my own [prologic_blog](https://feeds.twtxt.net/prologic_blog/twtxt.txt) here on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) a [Micro.blog](https://micro.blog) hosted blog (_which btw I love Micro.blog! good for longer pieces_). 2020-07-26T06:55:48Z @ Yes! If you follow the **NEW** @ feed you'll see that as of today we have 44 users and >215 posts. Amazing! 😎 Of course it will be even more amazing if new instances of [twtxt.net](https://twxt.net) just start magically appearing 🎉 (cc @ 😀) 2020-07-26T07:16:40Z @ Any change you can create a "Weekly_Saying" feed at https://twtxt.net/feeds ? 😎 2020-07-26T08:04:19Z @ I'd love it if you can approve ✔️ the new [Add user profile pages and **BREAKS** existing local user feed URIs ](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/pull/27) PR 😎 As [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) grows I'd love it if it wasn't just up to me making all the decisions 😉 2020-07-26T08:48:00Z @ testing what ? 😆 2020-07-26T09:06:46Z @ (re bore pump) What replenishes the bore water? Must come from somewhere 😁 2020-07-26T09:09:13Z @ can you share the length of time that you were expecting these battery banks to last for and what you actually got out of them in reality? 2020-07-26T09:24:38Z @ (first time for everything) haha really?! What do you do all your development collaboration on if not Github? 2020-07-26T09:25:21Z @ Good Morning ! 🤗 2020-07-26T09:57:25Z @ (re Bitbucket) Ahh no worries. Had my fair share of using Bitbucket -- In fact used Mercurial/Bitbucket before Git/Github 😊 Good times! 2020-07-26T10:02:13Z 📣 **FYI:** For all those that use [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) (_this instance_); I urge you to follow the special feeds @ and @ so you get the latest news and support updates about the platform. Thanks! 🤗 2020-07-26T10:14:37Z @ (re script to post to Mastodon) Ahh. Sadly I've evaluated both Mastodon and Diaspora and frankly found them too complicated to get up and running (_as I'm a big proponent of self-hosting_). Is cross-posting important to you btw? 2020-07-26T10:44:35Z @ (re running a Mastodon) instance. Fair enough. 2020-07-26T11:59:05Z 📣 Testing 1 2 3 2020-07-26T12:01:13Z @ (re dumb scripts) Ahh very UNIX(y) 😛 Don't worry there'll be an API here soon that you can `curl` or use `twt` (_the upcoming CLI_). 2020-07-26T12:40:56Z @ (re twtxt.net API) What do you mean by replace? 2020-07-26T21:59:38Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-26T22:01:17Z @ (re News feed) Thanks! That looks like a bug right there 🤣 2020-07-26T22:04:17Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 I don't speak German but if translated correctly, you're only here to visit? That's okay 😎 Maybe twtxt is not for you? 2020-07-26T23:26:18Z @ (re News feed) Sorry you can't have that 🤣 Squished that bug and fixed the bad data! Thanks for exploiting it 😛 2020-07-26T23:40:49Z @ (re API spaces) oh cool! I’ll spend some time on this after my work day! 👍 2020-07-26T23:47:57Z @ (re Tractor) When we build support for uploading photos 📷 to [twtxt](https://twtxt.net) you can share a little pic of your cute 🚜 2020-07-26T23:58:23Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-27T00:18:03Z 👋 @ and @ FYI; your "ownership" of @off_grid_livving @local_wonders and @ went missing in the database. I just fixed that and restored your ownership of them. Sorry about that! 🙇‍♂️ 2020-07-27T00:38:15Z @ (re twtxt, twitter and instagram) What do you mean by this exactly? I don't actually use Instagram at all! 🤣 2020-07-27T00:43:32Z @ (re News bug) Yeah you were! That PR was a bit untested on my part and rushed 😢 I've had to spend considerable time fixing bad data as a result of the change 🤬 Hopefully I've fixed most issues by now! 🎉 2020-07-27T00:49:46Z Hmmm 🤔 speaking of bad data on [twtxt.net](https://twtt.net)... There _might_ be a bit of a bug 🐞 where if users follow a custom feed on [/follow](https://twtxt.net/follow) and give it a `Nickname` that collides with a local user account, special users or local feeds it gets weird... 2020-07-27T03:06:52Z Great news! 🎉 I _think_ I might have fixed all the bugs I found and data errors in the [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) database. Again let me know if you encounter any other weird/strange things or inconsistencies! Thanks 😎 2020-07-27T03:09:29Z I've observed two things that aren't bugs per se but I should improve this. a) `@mention`(s) of local users should now link to the local user profile. b) `@mention` of local users that don't appear in your "Followers" list already by Nickname should automatically get expanded out. 2020-07-27T03:18:17Z 😳 Saw this today from an hiring agency "We create 360-degree developer profiles based on the public and private data they hold on various coding sites, including GitHub, StackOverflow, LinkedIn, and more." -- And this is why [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) will succeed! Privacy! 🤔 2020-07-27T03:19:29Z Re (360-degree developer profiles) -- Note the part about "and private data they hold on various coding sites". I mean sure I have nothing to hide, but it makes me rethink using [Github](https://github.com) myself honestly. What have we become?! 😱 2020-07-27T03:25:26Z 💡Another idea to improve the UX even further on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) (_now that we have the notion of very basic/minimal user profiles_) is to also have profiles for (sub)Feeds (_local feeds_) as well as external feeds/users with nice preview. Good idea? Please reply :) 😎 2020-07-27T04:04:34Z Exciting news! 🎉 @ and I will collaborate on implementing `@mention` and `#tag` parsing for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) and surfacing this information to users via special timeline views based on search criteria. 😎 Looking forward to it! 🤗 2020-07-27T04:49:25Z With the number of possible [external](https://feeds.twtxt.net) and [external users](https://github.com/mdom/we-are-twtxt) growing at an alarming rate! 😱 I should _probably_ group the sources of external users and feeds in the [/feeds](https://twtx.net/feeds) view by source. 🤔 2020-07-27T05:21:52Z @ Hello! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 Hope you find this fun as many of us are! We're only just getting started! 😎 2020-07-27T08:41:08Z @ 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 Thanks for checking this out! We hope you stick around and join in the very growing community and discussions! Or spin up your own instance! 2020-07-27T09:21:27Z Hey @ When are you going to post a new recipe? 😊 2020-07-27T09:37:30Z @ (re let's produce) Rock on! What's on your agenda for today? 2020-07-27T09:40:38Z @ @ (re permalinks) I must have missed this. I am _thinking_ about this for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) but I was thinking of a different solution. The instance's global feed cache hashing each entry and referencing this. If subsequent fetches we still preserve the old ones... 2020-07-27T09:41:51Z @ @ (re permalinks) If a feed entry changes it gets a new hash of course, but we still preserve the hash and content of the older one. This way on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) we can _link_ to and ref individual Twt(s) (_ofc only works here_). 2020-07-27T10:34:44Z @ (re plans for the day) Well I'm happy for you 😊 Sounds like a nice day! 😎 Where do you work btw? Also if you can strike up such conversations, spread the word about [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net)! And thank you for being a part of our every growing community! 🤗 2020-07-27T10:40:19Z @ (re chicken noodle soup) Hahaha 🤣 😂 Good one!

I saw the new @II feed you created; just bear in mind you can only create (_currently configured_) 5 such (sub)Feeds 😀 2020-07-27T12:18:40Z @ (re promoting) Yes I also find it hard to strike those conversations! I'm not very good at self-promoting!

Yeah so those are "External Feeds" that are sourced in by the [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) backend.

The notion of a `URL` and `TwtURL` for users and feeds is making the code complicated. There are also still inconsistencies in the behaviour. 2020-07-28T08:32:30Z @ sorry about the update today, all feeds got wiped out by accident! 😢 2020-07-28T11:53:13Z @ (re Java programs on Windows) Uggh 🤮 I sympathise, but on any OS.

This is weird! 😳 2020-07-28T21:02:30Z @ Hey ! 👋 I made a bunch of comments on the "twtxt.net API" specs dos we're working on that will form the basis of an API that will (_as a first use-case_) drive a new iOS App. LMK if/when you think we have enough details ironed out to start working on a prototype! 😎 2020-07-28T23:35:35Z @ (re reuse) Whenever I do development I was trying to reuse the best possible eyebrows I can find.

In fact I insist. Very soon [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) will have (_configurable ofc_) an option to limit the size of `twtxt.txt1 feeds it is allowed to fetch. I've done some math and figured a good default before rotation is around ~2MB... 2020-07-29T21:25:53Z @ Yeah sorry about that! I made a mistake in the code at one point and accidentally nuked all feeds 😢 It won't happen again! I'll be making sure to implement a backup job to ensure feeds are backed up. 2020-07-29T22:55:18Z @ (re @ twt) Yeah I look forward to it each day too now, its kind of exciting! 😎 2020-07-30T00:32:33Z @ Oh poo 💩 No new users since yesterday!

Enjoy! 🤗 Need help? Just post a Twt and tag @ 🤞 2020-07-30T06:15:49Z @ (re archive) I _believe_ there is already a convention by this I've seen around the twtxt community. That is to rename the active `twtxt.txt` file to `twtxt-.txt`. I would implement the exact same behaviour for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net)'s backend too. Thoughts? 2020-07-30T06:37:34Z @ @ (re archive) Yeah I _think_ we should stick to the same conventions. Speaking of which, at some point I'm going to start thinking about taking over the twtxt Spec and adding to it over time (_with joint efforts/discussions with the community of course_). 2020-07-30T06:38:45Z @ @ (re archive) I had a discussion with @ about old feeds and basically the consensus was that as humans we probably don't really care too much about things older than ~6 months or so. We can just auto-archive old feeds here on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net). Easy. 2020-07-30T06:39:53Z @ @ (re archive) Users in the wider community of course are welcome to make old twtxt feeds available as feeds of them own if they wish. No-one is forced to fetch them of course. Can do the same here too. 2020-07-30T07:41:35Z @ (re archive) Let's file an [Issue](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/new) and discuss this in more detail there? (cc @) My gut instinct tells me to just archive old feeds out with a `[.-][0-9]{4,6}` suffix... 2020-07-30T07:42:32Z @ (re archive) And leave it up to Users to continue to "Host" the old feed if they wish. This _may_ also happen similarly on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) as well and may be backend configurable and/or user controlled settings. 2020-07-30T07:43:29Z @ (re Mars Rover and your name?!) Say what? What did I miss in the world today? 🤣 2020-07-30T08:36:24Z @ Hello! I can't believe I didn't reply to you!

I look forward to it as well be able to grow the network of interconnected twtxt instances ! 🎉 also UI/UX improvements are always welcome 2020-07-30T10:37:51Z @ (cc @) Your Twts are really quite clever and engaging! Keep it up! 😎 I hope your new feed @ will be just as good when we have a Photo/Image upload feature (_coming soon™ to a [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) instance near you!_) 🙇‍♂️ 2020-07-30T10:40:17Z @ (re archive) Yeah from a [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) backend perspective it won't matter "how" users in the wider community archive their old feeds -- as long as they do as no sensible backend should fetch feeds that grow indefinitely. 2020-07-30T12:06:15Z @ Hello! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-07-30T12:08:14Z @ (re using this right) Yup you are :) Check out [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) for interesting local and external feeds to follow, as well as users.

Something about it doesn't fit right with me 😛 In any case I noticed something: [Imgur](https://imgur.com/5qZXr8L) -- Should we include Blog/Website/etc in [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) profiles? 🤔 2020-07-30T21:03:59Z That was suppose to be an inline image damnit ![](https://imgur.com/5qZXr8L) 2020-07-30T21:04:21Z Imgur sucks 🤣 2020-07-30T21:15:56Z @ (re twtxt cli client) Where's the source again? I'll check it out :) 2020-07-31T00:34:29Z @ (re regexes) Hahaha 🤣 😂 I have the same problem in trying to improve the `[Reply]` feature of [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 😂 Regexes are HARD! 2020-07-31T02:26:13Z @ (re weather) 😳 what part of the world do you live in?! 🔥 2020-07-31T03:24:45Z @ (re weather) Apparently its hot somewhere in the world! Like blazingly hot! 🔥Right @ ? 😀 2020-07-31T03:25:32Z @ (re photography gear) Sounds like you need to save up and buy new gear? 📷 2020-07-31T03:26:44Z @ (re double Twt!) No worries :) Its okay and no we probably don't have a "delete Twt" feature I don't think. Maybe? Hmmm 🤔 Not sure... It _might_ make sense to allow an edit or delete of your very last Twt? But the file backend is more like a WAL (_Write Ahead Log_) 2020-07-31T03:29:19Z @ Hello! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net)! Happy to have you join our community! 🤗 You can find interesting feeds and users to follow on [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) 🤞 If you need any help just tag me (@) or Twt and tag @ 👍 2020-07-31T03:32:29Z @ Now that you've fixed the "Followers" of feeds such as @ @, etc...

Can you do this? 🤗 My only requirement (_as you can see_) is that we don't introduce any "heavy" JS and that any JS **must** degrade gracefully. 2020-07-31T04:23:30Z @ (re contributing to wtxt.net) Really happy to have you on board in more ways than one! ❤️ 2020-07-31T05:38:16Z @ (re not American!)

(cc @ you can also do the same as well!) 🤗 2020-07-31T08:10:02Z @ Hey! 👋 You have 4 followers now 😎 2020-07-31T09:47:19Z @ (re following @) Were you perhaps following his @ feed and got confused? 😊 2020-07-31T09:48:54Z @ Hello! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 Glad to have you join our ever growing community! 🎉 If you need any help just post a `Twt` and tag `@`. Check out [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) for interesting users and feeds to follow! Welcome! 2020-07-31T10:04:52Z @doovan Yes let's disable the `Post` button once "clicked". Maybe rename it to `Twt` while you're at it 😎 2020-07-31T10:58:54Z @ Hello! 👋 2020-07-31T12:53:45Z @ (re syndicating twtxt to atom) What are you trying to do? 2020-07-31T13:37:22Z Testing double accidental posting :) 2020-07-31T13:37:42Z It works™ 😎 2020-07-31T13:39:02Z @ (re twtxt on micro.blog) The reason I was curious and asked... Is because I did it the other way around. e.g: https://feeds.twtxt.net/prologic_blog/twtxt.txt 2020-07-31T15:14:31Z @ (re do people blog?) I don't really have much time to write proper long-form blogs. I do however have [my blog](https://prologic.blog) which can be followed via twtxt. But yeah I much prefer using [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) now 😎 2020-07-31T15:17:46Z @ @ (re terminal fonts) I use this one ![](https://i.imgur.com/1t6hjzq.png) 2020-07-31T20:25:21Z @ 👋 Yup it is. Shouldn’t feeds also have their own avatar hmmmm 🤔 2020-07-31T20:32:03Z @ (re Fossil) I hear only good things about Fossil. I use Gitea myself 👌 2020-07-31T20:41:59Z @ (re twtxt to RSS) no I don’t know od such a service, however; if one were to be created you can imagine that you end up in an infinite loop cycle between the three different systems responsible if you happen to create a feed that feeds itself! Ouch 😂 2020-07-31T20:56:32Z @ (re Avatars) No they actually do work... However I realise now I have a problem with the backend. I have not implementing cache control in any sensible way shape or form 😢 So CloudFlare is by default caching everything for ~4hrs. @doovan Do you want to help fix this with me? 2020-07-31T20:57:56Z @ (re caching) Probably several endpoints or more need to have appropriate `Cache-Control` headers and _some_ probably also need `ETag` headers. I just _haven't_ thought about this yet. Been developing [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) rapidly! (cc @doovan @ @) 2020-07-31T21:01:10Z @ Nice new Avatar there 😎 Problem is you've somehow managed to make one of your feeds Avatar's change 🤔 Which leads me to the thinking "Hmmm I _think_ Feeds need their own Avatar as well 🤔" 2020-07-31T22:14:37Z Just had a great chat with @ about [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) and the vision and plans for the new upcoming Mobile/iOS App! 🎉 Exciting stuff! Really looking forward to working with Antonio on this 😎 Going to spend the day/weekend working on an API v1 for the backend... 2020-07-31T22:16:52Z With all this hype/crap lately on TikTok™ (_Microsoft is thinking of buying it? wtf/!_); What you _should_ know is that there is a Twtxt feed called [TikTok](https://enotty.dk/tiktok.txt) which I personally follow as it helps break up my timeline. It basically Twts the time ⏰every ½hr 🤣 2020-08-01T00:51:19Z @ Hello ! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 So happy for you to join us! 🎉 If you have any q's tag me (@) or ask @. Check out @ @ and @ and also [/feeds](https://twtxt.net) for things to follow 😀 2020-08-01T00:52:43Z @ (re caching) Cool! If you can help me solve this that would be awesome, I didn't implement caching properly yet :/ 2020-08-01T00:54:23Z So it would appear that according to @ « 🧮 USERS:70 FEEDS:10 POSTS:620 » we're not growing in users now... But that's okay. But we are growing in "activity" 🎉 Hopefully having an iOS app will help grow the user base as well as having other interested users spin up their own! 2020-08-01T01:07:33Z @ (re Shopping)... What you mean like _shitty_ [Bunnings](https://www.bunnings.com.au/) that has basically **zero** customer service?! 🤣 2020-08-01T01:09:31Z @ (re Spamming me) HAHA 🤣 😂 Spam away! It's a good thing we haven't built out [Mentions & Notifications](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/13) yet or I'd get a bit annoying with my Mobile/Desktop getting Web Push notifications all day from you 😛 2020-08-01T02:28:40Z @ (re NSW no. plates) Haha! To you NSW(er) would you please kindly go back to your respective state until the recent COVID-19 contamination of QLD has creased! 🤣 (_no offence !_) 2020-08-01T07:56:40Z @ (re long weekend!) Nice! What's your weekend plans? 2020-08-01T07:59:25Z I was discussing with @ on good idea for other automated feeds (_bots_) and a @world_stats was suggested based on the data that comes from [World o Meters](https://www.worldometers.info/) -- Unfortunately it costs an insane amount of 💵 to get access to their APIs 😐 2020-08-01T11:02:43Z @ PR [#58](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/pull/68) is up that improves how `[Reply]` works. If you feel like taking a look at it? 2020-08-01T20:46:26Z @ (re marketing inventions) There are two really good ways to do this in modern times 😎 [Indiegogo](https://www.indiegogo.com/) or [Kickstarter](https://www.indiegogo.com/) -- Basically "crowd funding". You need only a working prototype, some nice video demo, etc... 2020-08-01T20:48:12Z @ (re GOPATH) Yeah no worries! Its' just when you run `go install ` it will put the binary in `$HOME/go/bin` or `$GOPATH/bin` (_if I'm no mistaken); But don't do development on any of my stuff inside `$GOPATH`, I use Go111Modules so its not necessary 😀 2020-08-01T20:49:24Z Hmmm should we put the timeline pager at the top as well for convenience on Web? 🤔 2020-08-01T22:19:54Z 🎉 **NEW:** As of today you can now upload your favourite pics 📸 and Twt about them!

That will be coming soon and I think we worked out the details… 2020-08-01T23:41:41Z What a beautiful gorgeous day! ![](https://twtxt.net/media/39mnbKhQZDQUkiGhLJYav8.png) 2020-08-01T23:43:34Z ⚠️ If the new media upload feature doesn’t work for existing users please clear your browser cache and try again! 2020-08-01T23:55:34Z @ (re first post from API) Oh how exciting !!! 🎉😎😍 2020-08-02T00:04:50Z @ having fun? Is this from a prototype mobile app?! 😎 2020-08-02T00:09:48Z @ (re prototyping) yeah I’ll spend today working on some more and points for you for sure! What kind points would you like me to build immediately? Pick two 😁 2020-08-02T00:11:12Z @ (re prototyping) how soon can you put the prototype up on test pilot so that I can try it out as well and we can eat right quickly!? (just remember the name of the damn thing!) 2020-08-02T00:15:59Z @ wgoohoo 2 new users and hundreds of Twts!!! 2020-08-02T00:48:48Z My five-year-old daughter just threw this in our local café! ![](https://twtxt.net/media/7hCZkdfcoXEj2EAV7Z57nm.png) 2020-08-02T00:50:12Z @ (re next endpoints) I will get these done by my time today (AEST) 2020-08-02T00:50:57Z @ (re first beta version) sounds good! I think the sooner we can test him if I write all ideas and feature sets the better before publishing it to the App Store 😁 2020-08-02T00:51:24Z @ (re testing app) Good point! 2020-08-02T02:12:01Z Just in case no-one _thought_ this was slowly bur surely taking off... 😎 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/srsBT6yewCzu7UccP8Um5B.png) 2020-08-02T03:51:01Z Test ![](https://twtxt.net/media/KVxB6qaarqdZYnbbrehwhV.png) 2020-08-02T04:41:58Z Teat 2020-08-02T04:58:43Z @ @ (re exciting) What is exciting to hear?

(_NB: I haven't built this feature yet..._). Your [twtxt feed](https://hjertnes.social/twtxt.txt) just needs to have an ![https://hjertnes.social/avatar.png](https://hjertnes.social/avatar.png) next to it alongside the same Base URI. 2020-08-02T07:19:32Z @ That site (https://feg-ffb.de/2020/08/02/wochenspruch-32-2020/) is _really_ slow to load... Also its completely in German... What is it? 🤣 2020-08-02T07:21:15Z Not sure if @ _actually_ posts in the future or not 🤣 or whether the server infra that powers [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) is "out of sync" 😎 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/Y7TzSTUHmn6iGMhseCqF7J.png) 2020-08-02T08:45:45Z @ Hey! Thanks for updating your avatar! 😎 Also thanks for your work/effort so far on [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net). You did a good job with the Password Reset and Media Upload features! 🎉 Let's get the CSS improved on Mobile soon! 😀 2020-08-02T10:10:28Z @ (re external avatars) Hmmm 🤔 Now I'm confused... What's `$twtxt_basename` in this case? Can you give an example of a whole UIR? And btw I meant if you have for example `domain.tld/twtxt.txt` and `domain.tld/avatar.png`... 2020-08-02T10:29:34Z @ (re grouping high volume feeds) Yeah I actually had to _Unfollow_ the [ShowHN](https://enotty.dk/showhn.txt) feed as it was _becoming_ too noisy for me and _somewhat_ uninteresting. 2020-08-02T10:30:26Z @ (re grouping high volume feeds) One interesting counter idea would be to create subFeeds that turn high-volume feeds into smaller / less noisy ones with "various" algos. 🤔 2020-08-02T11:56:49Z @ (re 😺 spam) Haha! It's either a "Hello World!" for a new Programming Language or "Cat Pictures" for a ny Web App right? 🤣 2020-08-02T12:32:12Z @ (re 😺 spam) I know right :) Rather convenient I think to be able to preserve what I've noticed is "by convention" in the greater twtxt community 😎 2020-08-02T14:29:16Z Came across a [forum thread](https://www.linux.org.ru/forum/talks/15824721) from https://linux.org.ru this evening talking about [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) (_this thing I built!_); Unfortunately I had to translate Russian into English so I _may_ have misunderstood some of the convo. 2020-08-02T14:31:14Z Re ([forum thread](https://www.linux.org.ru/forum/talks/15824721) from https://linux.org.ru) However I would encourage (_if anyone from linux.org.ru sees this_) to read my blog posts on https://prologic.blog/ for why, how I created this and where its going! Thanks for talking about it! 2020-08-02T21:28:08Z @ @ (i hate regex) Yup me too! They're a giant PITA to get right 🤬 2020-08-02T21:29:43Z @ @ (re github trending) Oh my again?! 😲 I _must_ slow down 🤣 2020-08-02T22:07:54Z @ (re Testing) Whatcha testing there? 😊 2020-08-02T22:54:51Z @ (re Testing) Ahh brilliant :) I'm just refactoring the template handling atm, probably saw the commit :) 2020-08-02T23:32:56Z @ Thanks ! 2020-08-02T23:37:22Z This is what happens when a 35lb recurve bow with a normal carbon fibre arrow with field point hits a 1.6 mm it’s a plate steel on the back of the gate! 🏹 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/gxyE4zVqx8Gob94huPp77Y.png) 2020-08-03T00:18:08Z @ If you're bored 🤣 And itching for some cool things to do; I'd love to see a [/@mtnions](https://twtxt.net/mentions) handler/endpoint as well as #hashtag parsing/searching. It would also be nice to be able to (_say as a Post/Twt action_) "Only show Posts/Twts from this source _) 2020-08-03T00:19:25Z @ (re filtering by source) Consider you follow ~100+ feeds (_like I do! 😂_) it is a useful thing to be able to say "Just show me all the Slashdot Twts for now", then later "Show me all the ShowHN Twts", etc. 2020-08-03T00:20:52Z Also if anyone is any good (_better than me, as I'm rubbish_), the CSS can do with a bit of cleanup especially for smaller devices like on Mobile. Especially the Media Upload / Post As look. The "Home" / '"Timeline" top left is a bit off too IHMO. 2020-08-03T00:35:09Z Re ([twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) UI/UX) I _think_ we just need to have a _small_ row of buttons along the top of this text box with basic buttons for Markdown formatting and the "Media Upload". What do you think? It'll have to be custom made though as anything I've found is unsuitable. 2020-08-03T03:33:40Z @ (re filtering by source) Oh nice! Done! Created [#77](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/77) #78 and #79 if you're interested 😎 2020-08-03T04:13:31Z @ Are you on Signal btw? If not can you be? I'd love to keep in touch a bit more regularly (_if we can, in our **spare** time of course!_) as some interesting things have come up related to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) Also cc @ you too 😎 2020-08-03T04:24:04Z Check out my feed @ where I will be posting a series of Twt(s) on building, running and maintaining your own Home Datacenter / Private Cloud.

Something to do with the fact we now have Custom Avatars and Media Uploads? 🤔 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/rBBpub786a6gjQj8aTv5mB.png) 2020-08-03T05:44:29Z @ @ (re Signal) Yeah no worries! I'll shoot my no. through to you in a sec. We should all get together and collaborate a bit more in real-time (_when we can_). Also let's not (_as I said_) pollute this Pod with "Development" back 'n forth 🤣 -- Have a few things to share... 2020-08-03T07:01:52Z @ @amorris @ (re-wiki) sorry I can’t really comment on your card as I don’t really know LISP 😁 2020-08-03T07:05:17Z @ @ I think you meant to tag me? 2020-08-03T07:32:18Z Moon rise ! 📷 🌛 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/HaLe64ZgXz3rSHb3Fxzx3W.png) 2020-08-03T07:35:13Z @ that makes two of us I have no idea what we’re talking about! 2020-08-03T07:42:11Z @ happy Monday to you too! 🤗 2020-08-03T07:47:13Z @ hahahaha 🤣😂🤣😂 Yeah sometimes I try my hand at astrophotography, but it’s been a while 🤔 2020-08-03T07:56:15Z @ (re shoutout) Oh so terribly sorry! I’ll fix that! What is your Github username for reference? 2020-08-03T08:07:19Z @ (re shoutout) Fixed! Sorry about that 🤣 2020-08-03T08:13:07Z @ (re API) Yup the `/api/v1` endpoints are already live and working for auth, timeline, discover and follow. I'll be adding more endpoints this week or tonight (_depending on how tired I am 🤣_) I've mostly just been adding stuff that @ needs. Also a thought... a `/micropub`? 2020-08-03T08:25:18Z @ (re unfollowed a bunch of folks on the same domain) twtxt.net? 🥱 If so sorry; this is new and its all exciting and we're building something (_hopefully awesome_)! 🤗 Open to ideas from you! 2020-08-03T09:37:03Z @ (re hitting feeds too hard) What's your Github Username?

Anyway what are your opinions? 2020-08-04T08:52:58Z @ Can't you just tell your boss you're too busy with more important things? 2020-08-04T08:53:34Z @ (re Apple T&C) Who came up with that joke? 🤣😂 2020-08-04T12:16:07Z @ Do you mind comment on [How does twtxt comparison to Mastodon?](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/86) and sharing your insights? I tend to agree with you in some ways, I've looked into the AP spec a bit and find it a bit complex. MicroPub I'm still very hazy on... ] 2020-08-04T20:51:25Z @ Hello! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 So happy to have you join our growing twtxt community! Check out [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) for interesting feeds and other folks to follow and [/discover](https://twtxt.net/discover) for all Twts of local users. 2020-08-04T20:53:08Z @ (re twtxt.txt feed URI) Yes! Just append `twtxt.txt` to your user profile URI. E.g: https://twtxt.net/user/ocdtrekkie/twtxt.txt -- We _had_ a link in the User profile view but removed it as I _thought_ it would confuse people. Not sure where else we can expose it right now 2020-08-04T20:59:08Z @ (re Netlify) I don't get it 🤣 Doesn't Netlify just do (_basically_) web hosting and such? 2020-08-04T20:59:49Z @ @ (Netlify) How do I find myself?! 😲 2020-08-04T21:50:05Z @ @ (Netlify) Weird I can't click on anything 🤣 Oh well 😂 2020-08-04T21:51:44Z @ (re Netlify hosting) Ahh! Yeah I just take advantage of [Github Pages](https://pages.github.com/) for that. Similar idea I guess? We use Netlify (_or used to_) at our company (_in my day job_); I guess it's "Okay", not so keen on their pricing model though... 2020-08-04T22:27:20Z lukem (re Netlify hosting) Yeah fair ehough. Good reason to use Netfliy. I guess I typically self-host, but that's just a choice, not a technical thing at all :) 2020-08-05T02:31:29Z @ (re work) Hah! Maybe share some of it around?! 😛 2020-08-05T05:20:05Z @ (re work) You work too much! 😛 It _must_ surely be 🍺 ⏰ 2020-08-05T06:53:19Z New pool fence is looking great! 📷 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/23nTC4M3FpMG9W732HiRbL.png) 2020-08-05T07:13:26Z @ (re unit tests & refactoring) Would you be interested in putting that passion towards [twtxt](https://twtxt.net)’a codebase? 😁 2020-08-05T08:10:57Z @ (re messy forms) Oh what the hell?! It took like ~2mins for that page to load! 🤣 I don't even want to click around on thebottomss now 😂 2020-08-05T12:38:31Z Why do these micro-blogging platforms like [Twitter](https://twitter.com)™, [Mastodon](https://joinmastodon.org/), even [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) limit the no. of characters of your Tweet/Toot/Twt? What's the "technical" reason? What's the "design" choice? 🤔 2020-08-05T13:45:05Z @ (re char. limits) And so... What's our "technical" limit for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net)?! I can only _think_ if "feed size", "bandwidth" from fetching clients, etc... The character limits has a direct impact on when you rotate your feed out too... Thoughts? 2020-08-05T13:52:55Z @ (re char. limits) Well it is a configuration option anyway in the `twtd` backend. So that's fine. I _was thinking_ however of increasing the limit of this particular Pod/instance... To say `576`. 🤔 2020-08-05T14:19:57Z @ (re pool and pool fence) Hopefully next week in fact! 🏖 2020-08-05T14:20:24Z @ @ (re char. limits) Correct. 2020-08-05T14:21:27Z Seems like Docker Swarm hosting is a non-existent thing now (_everyone has moved to k8s 😳_); trouble is managed k8s is actually a bit hefty in price 😢 2020-08-05T15:15:09Z Did anyone on the [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) platform notice the **NEW** 🎉 [/mentions](https://twtxt.net/mension) feature? 🤔 😎 2020-08-05T20:44:21Z @ @ (re mentions) Yeah I guess its only useful when the Pod gets busier/noiser and you yourself follow more feeds. 2020-08-05T20:45:11Z @ @ (re char limit) Well I'm probably going to reconfigure this Pod's `MaxTwtLength` to `576` today. 2020-08-05T20:47:27Z @ (re k8s) Yeah I still use [Docker Swarm](https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/) myself and run several production clusters. Thinking of doing the same for [Hosted twtxt Pods](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/87) mostly to save costs but also simplicity. 🤷‍♂️ 2020-08-05T21:53:53Z @ (re Google+ class action) Is that it⁉️ Is that all the compensation you get as a person in this world if your Data Privacy and Digital Footprint is violated⁉️😱 2020-08-05T21:55:38Z @ (re bug, spam) Details please :) Do you mean to say that _anyone_ can register, then just post whatever⁉️😎If so that's intentional; at _some_ point we _may_ have to think about "proof" that you are a human 😎 -- But that's more of an operator of a Pod type thing ... 🤔 2020-08-05T22:48:11Z 🤬 Our dog 🐶is 💩'ing all over our brand new alleyway 😡 2020-08-05T22:49:37Z @ Rx == React? Yeah I find the whole idea of `diff-patch` of the DOM quite a nice little concept, but somehow Facebook engineers had to turn it into complex vastly more complex and hard to use 😢 2020-08-06T05:05:27Z @ (re 🐕💩) No! No! No! No! Its my new 🏹 range goddamnit! 🤣 2020-08-06T07:49:20Z @ I noticed you don't follow any feeds or users. By following users you discover through [/discover](https://twtxt.net/discover) or external feeds/users from [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) you get a personalised timeline 😎 2020-08-06T07:52:17Z Heard through the "grapevine" today that [Twitter](https://twitter.com)™ _removed_ Mr. Trump's account finally 😳 I must say, who the hell gives Twitter or anyone for that matter the _right_ to silence anyone let alone poor Mr. Trump (_even if he is ill perceived and allegedly says questionable things at times_). **NO ONE!** 😡 2020-08-06T08:17:49Z @ (re Trump's account reinstated) So apparently society can't make up their own minds about what _may_ or _may not_ be the truth about anything anymore? Have we really become that "switched off" from reality⁉️ 🤔 2020-08-06T11:06:39Z @ re (React/ / Rx) Yeah I can't really say I've used either really. I'm also not a frontend dev (_never have been, nor have I claimed to every be!_); so its a bit unfair for my to compare. What I do know is UI/UX interactions are hard to get right, get complicated real fast and whilst I understand the basic idea behind React -- Diff-Patch; I never really could wrap my head around React -- But that's not React's fault, I just can't wrap my head around UI/UX! 😳 2020-08-06T11:58:16Z @ (tools solving the _right_ job); Yeah I agree. I personally (_and this is just a personal choice after ~15-20yrs of experience, and having written one myself_) don't like to use "frameworks" myself. I deliberately picked certain components for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) (_possibly as the detriment of attracting developers to the project 🤔_); but nonetheless these can be found documented at https://dev.twtxt.net/ 2020-08-06T12:46:05Z @ Yeah I like to keep things simple :) 2020-08-06T14:16:08Z I'm giving Mastodon a serious go tonight and paid for a Managed Hosted instance. I'm `prologic@mastodon.mills.io`. I've explored quite a fair bit of the signup process, flows and feature set so far. The good news 🎉 is that [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) is **NOT** just yet another Mastodon, and there are already _significant_ differences which I'm taking note of. For example it seems quite hard to find users or interesting feeds to follow (_despite it being federated_) 🤷‍♂️ 2020-08-06T14:32:03Z @ (re iOS app for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net)) Oh nice! 😎 Can't wait to have an early working version 🤗 2020-08-06T15:01:49Z @ @ Yes! Discovery as it turns out is "quite hard". And IHMO (_and I could be wrong here_); but I don't think Mastodon has done a better job of that. We (twtxt.net) plan to try to solve this in new and interesting ways for sure! The fact that [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) already knows how to pull in external feed sources under [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) already helps immensely. As well each pod's local timeline gets a special @ feed that is another way ti discover either new users, feeds or who's following who. Important subtle differences ! 2020-08-06T15:13:29Z @ (re Mastodon) Oh that's cool! I guess the moment you started following me at my Mastodon URI my server instance nows knows about the one you're one and I could find you in the "Profile Directory" and follow you back. 2020-08-06T21:09:01Z @ Yup that’s the plan 2020-08-06T21:46:26Z 🥱 Good Morning World! 👋 2020-08-06T23:32:11Z @ API has been refactored a bit, tested a fair bit this morning, with bugs fixes. Updated the docs at https://dev.twtxt.net/ 2020-08-07T00:14:52Z @ I wonder who's going to make the 1,000th Twt⁉️ 🤔 🤣 2020-08-07T00:19:17Z @ Why hello there! 👋 I didn't notice you had signed up and posted your first Twt this morning (_for me anyway_) in my half-asleep uncaffinated state of mind 🤣 -- Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) ❕Check out [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) for interesting users and feeds to follow. Also consider following @ for daily stats on this Pod and @ for internal events where you can also discover new users! Feel free to tag me @ or @ if you have any q's. Enjoy! 😎 2020-08-07T00:22:01Z @ (re API) Also building a CLI (_UNIX style_) client as well that uses the same API. This will take inspiration from [twet](https://github.com/quite/twet) (_and others maybe_), but I want it to be as simple to use as `echo "Hello World" | twt` 😎 2020-08-07T00:28:56Z @ (re CLI UNIX style) Not quite sure what you mean exactly... Bad clients, abuses? We _should_ definitely rate limit it. 2020-08-07T00:42:11Z @ (re API keys / limits) Ahh yes I see what you mean. This is more compliated, but doable. I _believe_ what you are referring to is what we fall Application/Device tokens. I _think_ OAuth does this by design if I'm not mistaken. I _would_ just implement OAuth if I was actually familiar enough in "implemtnation detail" (_I understand the flows_); but anyway, maybe someone can come along and refactor API auth and/or add OAuth. Can you write up an issue re App tokens? I _think_ we'd need them to be "Pod Operator" managed? 🤔 2020-08-07T00:42:45Z @ @ (re Feed Avatars) Yes! This is just a missing enhancement. It will/should be done :) 2020-08-07T01:33:31Z @ (re API keys / limits) Yeah that's kind of my point. I _think_ we can easily limit API reqest rates at an individual pod level, an operator is also free to put further measures in place of course at their network level, and our own hosted offering will also have similar infra. The other thing to think about is to make req/res as cheap as possible to limit the impact of an attack. All important factors. Of course having it behind Cloudflare also helps :D 2020-08-07T01:33:45Z @ You work too much! 2020-08-07T03:10:56Z 😲 This pod ([twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) has _almost_ reached 0.5M hits over the past month! 😳 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/UrjA8SS8y9S9SvYzKEsRB5.png) ![](https://twtxt.net/media/tnaSStB4EQkq4vuoXtsDpG.png) ![](https://twtxt.net/media/VyZz93P9pASmeKpSyPKGcb.png) 2020-08-07T04:11:47Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 So glad you can join our growing twtxt community! 🙇‍♂️ Check out [/feeds](https://twtxt.net/feeds) for interesting external users and feeds to follow! Also consider following the special feeds @ for news and updates on this Pod and @ for internal events (_where you can discover who follows you, new users, etc_). If you need any help feel free to tag me @ or @ in a Twt Enjoy! 😎 2020-08-07T04:41:18Z @ (re Launch!) That was approximately ~3weeks ago now this Sunday😎 But thanks! 🙇‍♂️ I _believe_ we're very quickly approaching 100 Users on this Pod and nearly 0.5M hits this month. Now we just need to build out the "federation" (_think Pods talking to each other_) features and get some willing volunteers 😀 2020-08-07T05:59:03Z @ (re cURL and XML) Context? 🤣 2020-08-07T06:00:17Z @ (re MicroPub) Yeah from what I know of using MicroPub and reading source-code that implement it (_I need to go read the spec again_); I _think_ adding MicroPub support to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) _may_ make sense. 2020-08-07T22:06:32Z Anyone on a WIndows machine with Internet Explorer or cn easily get access to one to help fix a bug on this platform? If so please tag me (@) and have a look at this [Issue](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/96) 🙇‍♂️ 2020-08-07T22:59:26Z Test testing the IE bug I fixed :) ![](https://twtxt.net/media/j9WLem8aVk8DwMLsGd7mrd.png) 2020-08-07T23:06:12Z @ I fixed that bug _I think_; looks like the "Upload Media" was written with modern Javascript which IE doesn't support 😢 so I rewrite it all in plain 'ol vanilla JS that should work across pretty much every browser out there 😎 2020-08-07T23:06:46Z Really loving the fact I can edit my last Twt and correct typos or mis-mentions or other such mistakes 🤣 2020-08-08T01:25:27Z @ Hello! 👋Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-08-08T02:15:09Z @ (re IE1) Does it all work now?! 🤣 2020-08-08T05:14:39Z @ I'm adding more feature to this very platform you are using 😎 You _may_ have noticed the new toolbar along the top now? As well as the "single-click" media/photo upload. The other buttons will work shortly too! 🤣 2020-08-08T05:15:10Z @ Yeah you twt! 🤑 2020-08-08T05:15:41Z @ Love the Avatar! Very nice! 😀 2020-08-08T07:14:15Z @ (re fixing bugs for IE) Yes I am as we have users such as @ that use Internet Explorer so it’s important that the web interface works for everybody! 👌 2020-08-08T07:36:12Z @ (re API time stamp issue) Thanks! I’ll have a look shortly and hopefully get it fixed ASAP! 2020-08-08T07:38:33Z @ (re IOS App) Oooh very nice !!! 😁 2020-08-08T08:24:41Z @ @ Thanks@ We're trying to build an awesome social platform for all (_based around the simple ideas of [twtxt.txt](https://twtxt.readthedocs.org)_) so we appreciate the kind words! 🤗 (cc @ @ @) 2020-08-08T09:04:14Z @ (re Mastodon cross-poster) Do you mind sharing the script/tool that you use to cross-post from Twtxt to Mastodon? It would really help us in terms of figuring out how much we ([twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net)) should interoperate with Mastodon and vice versa. 2020-08-08T09:05:23Z @ You _should_ know just as well as I do; if you just one one user reporting a bug or a problem; you _should_ (_at all reasonable effort_) go out of your way to help them, fix the problem, etc. No matter how we _all_ feel about IE over the years 🤣 2020-08-08T10:51:31Z @ (re Android App) Are you _thinking_ of building an Android App for [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) ? 🤔 2020-08-08T11:08:15Z @ (re IE) Let me be more clear... I choose to build this platform in certain ways that **ensure** that folks on old machines with old software, in areas of the world with poor Internet access/coverage can access a free, open an uncompressed "social network". @ happens to be one such user that uses an older machine with Windows and IE. Why should I build a platform that isn't inclusive to as many folks as possible that is as performant and light on network as possible? I agree, there is a _balance_; but no one person should suffer just because... 🤔 2020-08-08T11:57:11Z @ (re Android App) Oh wonderful! You should probably join our development team then ! We've met twice on Hangouts so far to talk about the vision, plans and what we're up to. You and @antonion will get along nicely I think! 😎 I understand iOS/Android are two entirely different platforms but nevertheless ones we should target! What do you say? 😀 2020-08-08T12:55:54Z @ (re Android App) Yeah fair enough :D We are interesting fast! No time to waste! 🤣 Apparently [Gab](https://gab.com) (_which I think is a fork of Mastodon_) are building (_or have built?_) something similar; but as its a fork of Mastodon, its not even the same 🤣 2020-08-08T14:19:49Z @ (re Csound) wth?! wtf?! is "Csound"? 🤣 2020-08-08T14:20:51Z @ (re API time stamp issue) But it is fixed for you now right?! 🤣 2020-08-08T14:21:20Z PS: I don't sleep sometimes 😳🤣 2020-08-08T14:32:22Z @ (re API time stamp issue) Your welcome! 😎 Just a simple server mis-configuration! 2020-08-08T14:47:15Z Was chatting with @ last night (_its morning now! 🤣_) and we both agree that in terms of the single-pod Backend and Web App we're pretty much "feature complete" at this stage -- Bar of course the things we talked about yesterday re improving replies, permalinks, search. Anything beyond this I _believe_ will be focused on intra-pod features and hosted pod infra with 1-click hosted/managed pods. 2020-08-08T15:19:28Z Just came across this [Tweet](https://twitter.com/TechTinkering/status/1291978927762743296?s=20) from [@TechTinkering[(https://twitter.com/TechTinkering) -- Glad you like [twtxt](https://twtxt.readthedocs.org) 😎 But you need to check out what we're doing here on https://twtxt.net/ 🤗 2020-08-08T15:36:07Z Some _nice stats_ on the project so far: "Excluding merges, 9 authors have pushed 342 commits to master and 346 commits to all branches. On master, 0 files have changed and there have been 0 additions and 0 deletions." 😎 2020-08-08T15:41:28Z @ (re TechTinkering liking twtxt) No that's true, he _may_ not... However I have _found_ out that what we've built is already pretty "discoverable" and the no. of random Twitter™ tweets I saw about `twtxt` were noticed here! So you see the power of "Google" (_search engines_) and the "Web" is pretty damn powerful! 🤣 2020-08-08T15:42:18Z @ (re TechTinkering liking twtxt) But yes do make a "Tweet"™ or two 😀 2020-08-08T15:42:40Z @ (re TechTinkering liking twtxt) But yes do make a "Tweet"™ or two 😀 2020-08-08T15:46:33Z @ Hi! 👋 Welcome (_belated sorry!_) to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 For some reason we missed that you joined and posted!

In fact here on [www.twtxt.net](https://www.twtxt.net) it just redirects to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net). Make sense? 😎 2020-08-08T22:07:39Z @ @ (re Settings quirk) Oh!

What is this written in? Which lib/framework? 2020-08-09T20:37:30Z @ @ (re Twtxt Net API) Oh nvm; ignore my previous Twt 😎 Very nice! This will help a lot with expanding the community!

I plan to get this going this weekend. Interested? 🤗 2020-08-11T13:54:31Z @ (re HR recruitment industry) Yeah I can sympathise with that. 😢 Makes one feel like a _cheap_ contractor sometimes, I've found over the years (_even worse_) is you don't even get a "look in" if you don't keep your CV / Résumé up-to-date with all the latest "buzzwords" and "marketing hype".

But why do we need to "track" users and their behaviour in the first place? 🤷‍♂️ 2020-08-12T00:21:38Z 💡 In other news... I'm _thinking_ 🤔 about how we will build out so-called "Federation" features between [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) pods, and ultimately a network of them. My current set of ideas is to build notifications of "User A on Pod X mentioned User B on Pod Y" and "User A on Pod X started following User B on Pod Y" as [twtxt](https://twtxt.readthedocs.org) feeds themselves that are "polled" periodically. This has the benefit of allowing _anyone_ or _anything_ to also implement the same features, but the downside of not being "real-time". Thoughts? 👈 2020-08-12T00:45:30Z @ (re bed rest) What about [Plex.tv](https://www.plex.tv/en-au/) 😀 2020-08-12T01:06:10Z ![](https://twtxt.net/media/v8hwVx9ToYhXkYySjK79vg.png) Only Petrol Station in Australia that fills up your car for you! # 🤗 2020-08-12T02:10:36Z @ (re Federation) Yeah that could work for sure ! 2020-08-12T02:14:30Z Beat local Café — Cafe Bliss, Kenmore Village ![](https://twtxt.net/media/Mgwxgx3hyM4chUWXWM8YGm.png) 2020-08-12T03:45:19Z @ (re Federation) I _think_... There are two choices here; a) We do some kind of [WebMention](https://indieweb.org/Webmention) "think" (_haven't looked into this too closely yet..._) b) Some kind of "Web Hook" pushes to other pods or c) A "poll" based approach that is basically just a special type of feed between pods. I kind of personally like the simplicity of the later (c) as it means anyone can just periodically check for new followers by just say `curl`(ing) the feed. OTOH it _might_ be better to do some WebMention/WebHook thing in a simple way? 2020-08-12T03:45:44Z @ (re bed rest) You're welcome! 2020-08-12T03:47:10Z @ Which one? The local café or the petrol station?! 🤣 2020-08-12T03:54:48Z @ I see on your last Twt you had actually _edited_ it. I _know_ this because it was in position X in my timeline, then when I got back home from the shops it was in position Y above my reply to you 🤣 Interesting side-effect of "Editing" your last Twt 🤔 We really should get [this issue](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/89) done soon to limit the impact of this behaviour that _could_ throw users off if they are unaware! 😂 2020-08-12T05:31:52Z @ (tiktok tracking) You do realize I was being facetious right? 😋 I _know_ very well why large tech companies do this, especially on large social media platforms like [Facebook](https://twtxt.net/#)™, [Twitter](https://twtxt.net/#)™, [TikTok](https://twtxt.net/#)™, etc 🙃 2020-08-12T09:52:36Z ![](https://twtxt.net/media/UTQiLsPzU4u59NZyxcjsx.png) My 5yr old daughter built this a few weeks ago 😎 Isn’t it amazing? 🤗 2020-08-12T10:46:57Z @ (last paragraph re mozilla layoff) can you quote it here? :) 2020-08-12T20:59:55Z @ But I'm too lazy 😛 What's the point of a Twtxt platform if I can't read about something here 🤣 2020-08-12T21:02:10Z @ (re using twtxt.net without an account) No that doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. How would it know how to identify you so you can "manipulate" your feed? Is there an issue with having to have an account? Do you want support for say OAuth/OpenID or IndieAuth or something? 2020-08-12T21:13:51Z Yes the Mozilla thing is a bit of a worry. I worry about the Open Web too; but from a "technical" perspective I _believe_ it can never be destroyed. Fundamentally I'm not convinced you can really centralise or control something that isn't really a tangible thing, "Internet". But I would support Mozilla too; just like I support Wikipedia every year. 2020-08-12T21:17:42Z @ (re Twt edits) Yes. This is one reason why the Web Interface doesn't behave like this, it just shows the last N twts and allows you to pages through them. Perhaps the Mobile App can do this too? As you scroll down past the last item it'll just add a `?p=N` to the API call? 2020-08-12T22:26:19Z @ (re Twt edits) Yeah I get that. So _thinking_ here based on my experience adding new features to and fixing bugs for @'s [twet](https://github.com/quite/twet) a while back; If you build a cache client-side (_look at the implementation on twtxt.net for how this is done, maybe I should document it at https://dev.twtxt.net ?_); if you sent me the `CacheLastModified` timestamp we could compare that with the backend API's `CacheLastModified` timestamp too right? 2020-08-13T00:35:04Z ![](https://twtxt.net/media/jVfLJ75V2zao8uuFyFSQ2N.png) Our dog when he was just a wee pup!

We'll squish it! 🐛 Since I'm the pod operator of this particular pod, let me go rename your `felixp7` feed temporarily and let you re-create your account. Make a twt and MLK when you're done and I'll merge the `twtxt.txt` file back? Sorry about this! 😢 2020-08-14T08:30:01Z @ Also one of the things we plan on doing with the "Hosted Pods" offering is allowing users to move around pods if they wish. So you can basically take your feed and all your data with you. We're still working on all this, and I just finished building the 1-click Hosted Pods feature today! 2020-08-14T08:43:39Z @ Fortunately this isn't a bug. I just discovered the backend had OOMed (_Out of Memory_) a few times. I will probably spend tonight (_late my time, AEST_) redoing the infra a bit ti improve this. Again sorry! Meanwhile I've bumped up the memory of the backing VMs and increased the quote/limit of the service a bit. 2020-08-14T11:05:45Z @ Welcome back! Sorry about the experience! I'm working on it! The pod was under resource pressure and git killed a few times. I've since mitigated that. As for your "account data" I won't easily be able to recover that; however I _noticed_ you were using `txtnish` client. You _should_ be able to "import" your following list from that client into here by following [/import[(https://twtxt.net/import). LMK if I can help further! 2020-08-14T11:07:19Z @ (re Avatar) yeah caching is quite hard to get right and somehow we still haven't really solved that I guess even though we've attempted to do so multiple times now :/ It _does_ work but either the client's browser caches the auto-generated avatar (_identicon_) or cloudflare is being silly or both? Not sure we'll keep improving things! 😀 2020-08-14T13:49:07Z @ (re-following you) Don't worry, just keeping twt'ing 🤣 We're actually getting pretty good with per-pod discovery already and we will soon also make intra-pod discovery work nicely too! 🤗 2020-08-14T13:50:16Z @(re plain-text file) To be fair, this platform __is__ backed by plain text files 🤣 I can recover the first first twts you posted if you want them merged back in? :) 2020-08-14T14:27:06Z 📣 **ANN:** Introducing the first _alpha_ version of fully managed, 1-click hosted pods [twt.social](https://twt.social); of the same software that backs [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🎉 This means you can now request a pod of your own and get your own `yourname.twt.social` for yourself, your family or community.

I actually wrote a Wiki Engine around the same time MoinMoin was being developed. I called mine `PWiki` then later it become `PWiki2` 🤣 Such a loooong time ago! 2020-08-15T07:22:02Z ![](https://twtxt.net/media/Z3LPtyYC8TtXk2jBqSTFH5.png) Soms time ago I hand built this Bird house 😁📷🦜 2020-08-15T07:57:36Z Can anyone help with [this bug](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt/issues/109) 🐛 I don't get it 🤷‍♂️ # # 2020-08-15T08:07:20Z @ Hahaha coincidentally; have a read of [this](https://twtxt.net/twt/hvbqdrrz6sll7uoqbxoozkshzuacgm33i7xffshkkpm7njtelozq) 🤣 2020-08-15T09:08:36Z @ Which bug? Link to the twt? 2020-08-15T09:09:40Z @ (re 🌈) Very nice! 🤗 2020-08-15T12:32:51Z @ 👋 I owe you a **sincere** apology! When I came across your _really_ cool and simple [twtxt.txt](https://twtxt.readthedocs.org) spec, I fell in love. Then I built what you see here today (_~5wks in the making now..._). Apparently I said "I was the new @bucket"" (_and because I'm actually legally blind I probably even typo'd the handle!_). I should not have done this; and I'm clearly not you, and I'm sorry for making this "joke". After talking to @erlehmann a fair bit tonight I _believe_ we actually have similar ideas and ideals and I'd love to connect with you. 2020-08-15T22:02:13Z @ This is really awesome stuff you’ve shared on off grid living! Can’t wait to see the next series of posts from you! 🤗 2020-08-15T23:29:36Z @ Why do Twts like [this one](https://twtxt.net/twt/id3vib6djing6vj45dalsj7qpzvrpp4uwwmt2emnt3ik5nwrspca) not render the # ? 🤔 2020-08-16T00:37:02Z @ (re hashtag not rendering) Yeah I suspected as much and there’s already half the code to handle this so it shouldn’t be too difficult I think? 2020-08-16T05:16:57Z @ @ @ Hello 👋 Just one more user and this pod will have a nice round 100! 💯 🤣 2020-08-16T06:21:12Z @ eh? What was the time out issue? 2020-08-16T06:51:58Z @ Hahaha that sounds awesome! (_except for the roast part!_); I _think_ we're having the same thing (_except veggie roast!_) 😉 2020-08-16T06:52:55Z @ @ Hmmmm 🤔 can't honestly say I've seen it. Will have to add it to my Plex archive 😀 2020-08-16T06:54:04Z @ (re Pull Refresh); What for the Web App or the # App? The iOS App has this already AFAIK; right @ ? (cc @) 2020-08-16T06:55:44Z Speaking of enhancements to the Web App (_at least_); it _might_ be nice to have it automatically initiate a WebSockets connection to the backend or have a WebWorker background task that periodically polls the API and when there are new items in your "Timeline' in the feed cache to display a banner along the top saying so with a button to pull those in... 🤔 2020-08-16T08:46:52Z 🎉 **NEW:** As of `v0.0.12-71-g79202a2` of [prologic/twtxt](https://github.com/prologic/twtxt) _all_ [Twt.social](https://twt.social) pods such as this one ([twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net)) now display the date/time of posts in the timezone of your choice. Go to your [/settings](https://twtxt.net/settings) to change your timezone from the default of `UTC` to your local timezone, e.g: `Australia/Brisbane` 🤗 2020-08-16T10:31:29Z @ @ I'm kind of curious about something... You both seem to post every 30-60s when you do. As if your client restricts you to a mere ~100-144 characters? 🤣 Its merely just an observation... No big deal, just wondering why 🤔 2020-08-16T10:51:47Z [/.](https://slashdot.org) is _really_ pushing this Firefox issue! This has to be the 5th or 6th time I've seen a story on it? 🤔 2020-08-17T03:04:43Z @ (working on weekend) Not sure why but... ![](https://twtxt.net/media/McdYth66TXohfhZVFioGRE.png) 2020-08-17T03:05:44Z @ (re macOS Keyboard Shortcuts) you can even type Emojis too! Like this one 🤣 `Control + Command + Space` 😎 2020-08-17T03:27:57Z @ (working on weekend) Yeah I'm not sure why I can't view some Youtube videos really. Really kind of odd. 2020-08-17T14:16:27Z @ (re relative time) Yeah I was using [humaize.Time](github.com/dustin/go-humanize) and _for some_ reason decided to try [sprig's ago](http://masterminds.github.io/sprig/date.html) instead; which I _think_ kind of sucks. I _might_ switch back; but I'll have a look to see if `day.js` can "enhance" the UX for sure! 🙇‍♂️ 2020-08-17T14:20:29Z @ Interesting you should say this... I'm also on [Micro.blog](https://prologic.blog) _as you know..._ I also find it a bit "tiresome" somewhat. Not really sure what it is to be honest; but your twt made me think about this; "How do you continue to evolve an interesting and vibrant community with meaningful discourse?" 🤔 Then again we now have [Twt.social](https://twt.social/signup) pods where folks _can_ create their own "communities" 😎 2020-08-17T14:50:00Z @ (re timeout) Hmm sorry about this. I'll look into this on my end a bit... 2020-08-17T14:51:08Z @ (re keyboard shortcuts) Same way? 🤣 2020-08-17T16:53:16Z @ (re creative prompts) I'm always open to ideas! So if you have any "feature" ideas or "community" efforts (cc @) please let us know 😀 2020-08-17T16:56:21Z I love CI/CD pipelines when they work perfectly! 😍 Right on queue `twtxt v0.0.12@ab978b3` 2020-08-17T18:20:12Z @ @ Which jack btw? :) 2020-08-17T18:22:00Z @ (re tent peg) Looks fine 😎 📷 2020-08-17T18:23:09Z @ Oh 😲 You use @ ?

I'd love it if _anyone_ could help me test this before doing so! Just jump on to either https://twtxt-webmentions1.mills.io/ or https://twtxt-webmentions2.mills.io/ (_or both_).

You just include it as another "blog source" in your [Micro.blog](https://micro.blog) account right and it automatically pulls it in? 2020-08-18T06:04:32Z 🎉 **ANN:** [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) (_and all [twt.social](https://twt.social) pods_) now support [WebMentions](https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/) 🎉 I'll write a larger blog post about this later, but for the non-technical folks here, this means you can now mention/tag someone on another pod.

How are dimensions broken? 2020-08-18T07:43:42Z @ @ (re cross-posting to micro.blog) Ahhh because [Micro.blog](https://micro.blog) doesn't know how to render twtxt URI(s). Hmmm 🤔 But I _think_ we can solve this be pre-processing the twts before we shove them into the Atom feed. Wanna file a bug? 2020-08-18T07:56:53Z @ @ (re cross-posting to micro.blog) Never-mind filing a bug, I fixed it :) 2020-08-18T20:56:00Z @ (re browser scope creep) Yeah I tend to agree _somewhat_, over the years I've found Web Browsers become far too complex, resource hungry, unnecessary features and many of them (_at least the open source ones_), countless millions of lines of code! I'm sure @ has something to say about Web Browsers too 😀 2020-08-18T20:58:24Z @ « You’ll Need a Facebook Account To Use Future Oculus Headsets ⌘ http://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~3/SOIhVBD7SS4/youll-need-a-facebook-account-to-use-future-oculus-headsets » < But of course, why just stop at creating an awesome piece of hardware? 😢 2020-08-18T21:56:01Z 👋 Hiya all!

(_sorry about the poor photos, we can improve those later if you have higher res ones?_) -- So $440 AUD/yr in maintenance costs is still pretty good really considering you ran your entire house off this! 👍 I'd be very interested in seeing on your next install whether these [BYD B-Plus Lithium Battery - 2.56kWh - 48V](https://www.rpc.com.au/catalog/byd-b-plus-lithium-battery-2560wh-48v-p-4645.html) will do better and be even more cost effective in the long run since they have a 10yr warranty. 🤔 2020-08-19T22:04:18Z @ (re Solar + Wind) I _think_ (_no proof_) the idea behind this is that you are in fact drawing power from Solar during the day and Wind at night and _often_ (_if you size up your system right_) **NOT** from your battery bank(s); whih are there only as a backup and for higher loads. If you have a system with 2 sources of power generation 24/7 you might not ever even need a battery bank at all; maybe spin up a flywheel instead 😀 (_as storage_), or just have a backup ATS switch to a genset in case of power loss? 🤔 2020-08-19T22:53:18Z 😲 Today at my day-job (@) I got through all my Github Notifications, Emails and Slack messages in ~20mins! 😳 Today is going to be a _productive_ day me thinks 🤣 2020-08-19T22:54:10Z Time to make a 3rd cup of ☕️ 😎 2020-08-19T23:19:59Z @ (re coding buddy) How often does he talk back⁉️ 🤣 2020-08-19T23:37:20Z 🎉 **NEW:** Just _rolled_ a fix for media upload handling which will correctly automatically orient images according to their EXIF orientation tags (_Thanks to this [library](https://github.com/disintegration/imageorient)_) 🎉 📷 -- No more upside images! 😎 2020-08-19T23:46:53Z @ let’s try that upside down ranch again and see if it correctly orientates itself! ![](https://twtxt.net/media/pvqg3RhqqyLpwEZvf4LHaP.png) 2020-08-20T00:03:55Z @ 😲 We have 3 new folks here on this [pod](https://twtxt.net) 🎉 Hi y'all!

A very lovely person by the name of "Khalif, Liban" phoned me personally! So it would appear the messages I _tried_ to send did not in fact go to `/dev/null` 🤣 Thank you Khalif, Liban! 🤗 Amazing what "good customer service" can do!

Given that its Flutter though, this is not just for Android right? Desktop too? 2020-08-20T05:28:13Z @ (re simple single-page websites) Here here! I'm hearing ya and @ would agree! That's why I built this [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) with deliberation and careful choice of tools and libraries. I (_for example_) opted __NOT__ to use Bootstrap, or jQuery or any other "heavyweight" "things". I hope you find the experience "acceptable" 🤣 Good read btw! 2020-08-20T05:59:38Z @ @ (re Flutter App functionality) Ahh cool okay! Too bad I don't have an Android app to test with, but I'm sure you'll put it up on TestFlight too right? 2020-08-20T11:24:41Z @ @ @ Oh! This is so cool! Thank you for doing this! I can't wait to read every one every single day! 🎉 2020-08-20T11:27:30Z @ @ (re automated Dilbert feed) Use the API and/or the CLI? Although now that I mention this I _should_ bring the API up to parity (_as well as the CLI_) with the Web App -- Specifically the API is missing the ability to "postas" I believe. 2020-08-20T11:28:03Z @ Hello Jack! 👋 Welcome back!

Learn Go! Trust me it'll take you but a few hours! Its a really simple yet powerful language! And don't worry, give your background and experience I'm sure you'll pick it up quickly and rip my code apart! 🤣 My biggest problem is finding a good set of interfaces/abstractions to reduce the amount of copy/pasted code between the Web handlers and API handlers. 2020-08-20T13:22:25Z @ (re Podcast and Cults) According to Wikipedia: > In modern English, a cult is a social group that is defined by its unusual religious, spiritual, or philosophical beliefs, or by its common interest in a particular ... 🤷‍♂️ So I dunno 🤣 2020-08-20T13:28:08Z Say hello to new @ @ @ tab-completion 😎 2020-08-20T14:46:28Z G'night Twtxters! 😴 2020-08-20T15:18:43Z @ Sorry my mistake, you _can_ `postas` via the API 😎 2020-08-20T15:41:00Z @ @ (re Flutter App functionality) I have no opinion either way either, as I can already see "alternative" web apps / interfaces being built too (_perhaps not be me, but nevetheless_). I _think_ our main goals should be to get a solid API going, Pod management and a decent working Android/iOS app of some kind! 2020-08-20T20:58:29Z @ @ @ (re Flutter App functionality) Calling it X for Twt.social is a good call. I like it 😀 I also agree with @ that calling any particular version of a mobile app "official" is a bit pointless, we should document the protocol, the spec (_done_), but I see no reason why there aren't be more than one "web app" (_perhaps bundled with the software and user-chosen which ones is used_), etc. 2020-08-20T23:22:30Z @ (re taking control of your family's digital assets); You _should_ read my @ feed on this!

See these before and after shots! You can clearly see what the p95/p99 performance was overall before I attempted to fix it, which failed, then realised what I'd done wrong and fixed it proper in the very clear drops in p95. The p99 spikes to ~4s I suspect are coming from the `postHandler()` and the new webmentions feature. ![](https://twtxt.net/media/YSv9FALh5CKcvL5JkJPKb.png) ![](https://twtxt.net/media/VpHpfVcCRotzwuebN3475R.png) 2020-08-21T01:14:05Z @ @ @ @ Let's move development discussions of Twt, Twt.social and Twtxt.net off [this pod](https://twtxt.net) and on to [dev.twt.social](https://dev.twt.social) going forward? 🙇‍♂️ 2020-08-21T21:30:48Z Hello @ 👋 Welcome to [twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) 🤗 2020-08-21T21:32:52Z @ Hello! 👋 Welcome to our little community! 🤗 2020-08-21T23:54:14Z Sadly I forget what this house is called, however this was taken in Dublin city in Ireland.

I'll probably merge it after I get back from coffee at my local village. 🙇‍♂️ 2020-08-27T01:58:33Z @ @ (cache ttl) no worries ! 2020-08-27T05:41:32Z @ I hope you’ll stick around here though! I’m not really entirely sure that I could build a social network on the Gemini protocol 😂 2020-08-27T06:41:33Z 📣 **FYI:** No, your twts are not gone! Please bare with me as I nuke the feed cache and rebuild it after merging the "Cache TTL" feature which limits the amount of data we cache in memory. This makes things go _much_ faster 🎉 The feed cache gets updated very ~5m. Patience! ⏰ 2020-08-27T06:50:28Z @ Good call! 🤗 2020-08-27T07:02:25Z Oh no I can't see my own twts; What have I done?! 😱 2020-08-27T08:27:13Z Hmmm I broke the order 😢 2020-08-27T10:55:42Z 📣 **SEV1:** Well I _feel_ really stupid tonight. When I merged the "Cache TTL' feature this afternoon, some of the logic for `max-cache-items` **was just plain wrong**. It took me a while to fix it, really sorry about that! And I was out playing table-tennis too. I can't promise this won't happen again, but this has reminded me that we need to start _slowing_ down a bit now and writing unit tests and integration tests. So sorry y'all! No twts were lost in the process, ist just a cache! 😎 2020-08-27T10:57:13Z For those of you who may not be familiar with [Incident Management](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incident_management) -- A **SEV1** is basically "everything is down" kind of incident. In this case since the global feed cache was busted and badly broken, I consider this bad enough to recognise it as such. Again my sincerest apologies! Again no twts were lost! 🤗 2020-08-27T11:29:58Z @ Yes, this particular pod and the software _can_ be pronounced "Twi" "Text". Yes 😎 Or alternatively you can place the **emphasis** on the "t" in "Twit" and then "ext". 2020-08-27T11:33:48Z @ @ Hello! 🤗 Welcome! Glad to have you join the growing Twtxt network! 2020-08-27T11:34:29Z Is it quiet in here because I _broke_ basically everything for a few hours tonight?! 🤣 I hope not! 😢 2020-08-27T12:16:30Z @ Yeah I was, I _think_ I'm down with a cold, its really unlike me to break something so badly as I did today. I'm a bit embarrassed 😳 2020-08-27T12:16:55Z @ (re quietness) Tell me about it! I _think_ I need to take tomorrow off work. 😢 2020-08-27T12:34:31Z On this plus side the (_at first disastrous_) work I did today on this platform and its software has actually improved performance considerably.

Nice avatar btw! Too bad about you and your daughter not liking potatoes! I love 'em! 2020-08-27T15:24:38Z @ (re Word Salas) So true! There have been so many meetings where I thought "Geez louise, this person has talked for ~10mins and basically said **nothing**!" 🤣 2020-08-27T15:26:13Z @ 💡 Suggestion box: Put the title of the dilbert comic in `( parents )` so users on [Twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) (_or any other pod_) can _easily_ just hit the `[Reply]` button 😀 2020-08-27T15:54:39Z @ @ Oh I _thought_ you had already automated it! 😂 2020-08-27T20:25:55Z @ (re Budesonide) So what we really need to do worldwide is legalize speed and steroids! 🤣 # 2020-08-27T20:27:40Z @ (re BR) you’re not meant to have multiple lines of text in your post, however yes you can technically use the BR hack as a way to format the text into multiple lines if you wish as you just found out ha ha 🤣 2020-08-27T20:29:06Z @ Oh broken? In what way? 2020-08-27T20:30:17Z @ @ (broken mentions) Hmmmm I just woke up I’m still reading and scrolling through my timeline! I’ll check it out in a minute after my second coffee 🤣 ☕️ 2020-08-27T20:33:35Z @ nope it’s not just you it works really off-line by so fast this year! 2020-08-27T20:37:00Z @ no neither did twtxt.net 🤣 appears as if I got broken up into multiple lines! And there by multiple posts in a short few seconds 😂 2020-08-27T20:39:45Z @ @ (pandemic eternal ~~April~~ March) Yea!!! You would not believe how much time I save in commute by not having to go into the city and back just to go to work! I think on average I save about 2 to 3 hours per day of my life 🤣 Thanks # 2020-08-27T20:45:46Z @ @ (re Mentions bug) 🐛 Whoops [Fix /mentions view logic (ooops)](https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/commit/d1521c74cbefa67a447776ff4a138a34c13604ff) -- Rolling out in a few mins 😀 2020-08-27T22:43:09Z 📣 **FYI:** I fixed a session bug that caused the backend to _think_ you were logged out (_and it was leaking session cookies! Whoops! 😢_) when viewing a profile. This has been [fixed](https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/commit/93732261f7c5c6221cf77de7ed069320593be86e) now! 🎉 In addition on your. next login you will see a "Remember Me?"

Keep posting quotes like this ! 😍 2020-08-27T22:59:19Z @ @ (re Mentions bug) Yes squished that too! 🎉 2020-08-27T23:01:21Z @ Yeah the _only_ reason we've not focused on testing at this point is because of the "need to deliver fast". That's why I was so adamant with @ and @ that we get the iOS/Android Apps on some kind of automated CD pipeline just like the (_current_) Web App. Its important to deliver **fixed** bugs just as quickly as _new_ features 😀 2020-08-27T23:13:15Z @ @ (double mentions) Fixed! 😀 2020-08-27T23:13:37Z Although give it ~5mins or so for the CD pipeline to kick in! 2020-08-27T23:15:35Z @ @ @ Yup I 100% agree! Issues _should never_ be ignored, not even if its an IE11 usability one! 😉 @ @ / @ 🤣 2020-08-27T23:20:03Z @ @ (double mentions) The nice thing about the recent changes over the last day or two is the backend restarts/updates _much_ quicker now and so there's less change of `502 Bad Gateway` errors between "old pod" and "new pod". 2020-08-27T23:20:33Z So if we continue to do things right and don't horribly break things like I did last night (_again sorry!_), no-one should notice a damn thing, except for "new and shiny" 🤣 2020-08-28T00:27:00Z @ looks like since we introduced the coach TTL an archival process the stats for the number of total parts on a local pod is now a bit wrong and off, it should probably be counting all of the ones in the case and the archive together hmmmm 🤔 2020-08-28T03:29:57Z @ (re Replies) I will answer you properly later this afternoon when I finish my workday (_day job_). Meanwhile do you mine [Filing an Issue](https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/issues/new)? (cc @ @ @ Looks like we'll fast-track the ideas we've had for how to design/implement better UX around replies sooner than later!) 2020-08-28T03:59:17Z @ yes I really do they’re actually my favorite food! My wife makes this awesome roast potatoes which I just the most delicious thing really they are 👌 2020-08-28T06:11:10Z @ (re Replies) So... Let me answer properly now. We _think_ we can do this in a way that doesn't break the `twtxt.txt` spec that we use. The basic idea would be to reference the `In-Reply-To` Twt by its Hash. The UI (_the web app in this case_) can then group twts by that hash and _slightly_ indent them or show them in a single group/thread. This is the basic idea anyway. To other non-Twtxt.net/Twt.social users it would just appear as `\t(re #) ...\n` where `#` is a 7-character hash of the original Twt being replied to. 2020-08-28T06:12:03Z @ @ I _believe_ its a "curated" Hacker News 😛 2020-08-28T06:13:14Z @ (re wrap-up) Me too! I was starting to fall asleep at my keyboard. I just can't work today 😐 2020-08-28T06:14:09Z @ Did you know? 💡 You can change your avatar to something custom you upload 😀 2020-08-28T10:26:37Z @ How many Pecan Nut trees do you have? 2020-08-28T11:46:15Z @ And... What did ou learn? :) What do you think? 2020-08-28T11:59:46Z @ I don't need to watch the video 😊 (_also I'm in bed and it'll disturb my wife 😋, might watch it tomorrow morning!_); However what you just painted is precisely _why_ I built this and continue to build it! 2020-08-28T12:03:09Z @ Also _think_ you linked to the wrong video? 🤔 ![](https://twtxt.net/media/6MVjNrVQnPCrHpvn89gXUA) 2020-08-28T20:14:18Z @ (re [Twt.js](https://www.npmjs.com/package/twt.js)) This is very cool! Congrats on the new release and library! Very nice! I _should_ also do one for both Go and Python 😀 2020-08-28T20:18:01Z @ You are ale to set your timezone in `/settings` :) 2020-08-28T20:20:40Z @ Re `twet` the Go command-line client, This client only works with local `twtxt.txt` files, We have a command-line client that uses the Twt API that you can try, unfortunately its not quite ready yet 😀 2020-08-28T20:21:56Z @ (re cross-pod mentions) Yes I'm not really sure why your [mention](https://eveningwear.twt.social/twt/3isovjsdbka) didn't quite work, you probably discovered a bug 🐛 I'll look into it today. 2020-08-28T22:44:16Z @ @ (Rick Astley) Ahh sorry I didn't get it 🤷‍♂️ I guess I'm not up to speed with "Rick Roll'n" 🤣 2020-08-29T00:00:25Z @ (re cross-pod mentions) Yes! 🎉 It turns out you had uncovered a bug which I've now fixed since [v0.1.0@ 9fc57b3](https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/commit/9fc57b3dcdfe415d28b70a62caddf0d126f91b89) and this has now rolled out (_automatically_) to all hosted pods! So you should get this mention itself in your local pod's timeline on [/discover](https://eveningwear.twt.social/discover) or in your own if you follow the [twtxt](https://eveningwear.twt.social/user/twtxt) bot 😀 2020-08-29T00:01:55Z @ (re [Twt.js](https://www.npmjs.com/package/twt.js) Yes I can appreciate that it will! Please help us improve the API! The easier we make this on other devs the better the eco system :) 2020-08-29T00:30:14Z @ Test cross-pod mention 😀 2020-08-29T03:15:14Z @ You _may_ have now noticed (_I'm going to go to the park now, I'm done coding for now!_) that the `twtxt` feed correctly shows up on your local pod's discover timeline now. You had uncovered a fault in the feed cache by following buckket's original twtxt feed (_which is super old, stale and I don' think is active anymore!_) Thanks for finding this bug! 2020-08-29T03:18:35Z I guess cross-pod mentions works nicely now! Cyas 👋 2020-08-29T08:11:14Z @ @ can you share some of the e-books that you’ve written? I might be interested in getting into this kind of skill! 😁 i’m curious to know how the software works and what the end result looks like... 2020-08-29T08:26:21Z @ (re Walled gardens in disguise) I read your blog post in full and find your point of view rather interesting. I _never_ considered [Micro.blog](https://micro.blog) to be a "walled garden", but now that you mention it I can see why you say that, _and_ I agree. After a few weeks of my joining I also noticed that the so-called "Timeline" just became full of "curated" posts that are "managed" / "controlled" by a few small no. of "community managers". This in and of itself can lead to bias and all the pitfalls that comes with. 2020-08-29T08:28:32Z @ (re Walled gardens in disguise) I _will_ likely continue to use Micro.blog for the foreseeable future mostly just as a way to write "blog posts" as I find it rather nice for _that specific purpose_; However my old man and I were chatting today about what I've built here on [Twtxt.net](https://twtxt.net) and _we_ think we can extend the platform (_it would go outside the `twtxt.txt` format/spec slightly_) and also support long-form / blog posts as well. In fact it _might_ even be a nice "marriage" of the two forms if we do it right! 2020-08-29T08:29:28Z @ @ And I _can_ read/download these fore FREE? (_free as in beer? 🍻_) 2020-08-29T08:48:00Z @ (re Walled gardens in disguise) Yes! I _hope_ we can continue this and keep it all open, honest and unencumbered. 2020-08-29T08:49:23Z @ @ (re your e-Books) Ahh no worries! I don't mind paying, I'll have a look! Thanks! Mostly I just wanted to get a feel for this software "Sigil". Do you have a link to it?

The "Tag Emojis" are auto-generated AFAIK and your "Timeline" is completely just populated with the people you follow. So hmmm 🤔 Maybe I missed something in your blog post, I'll have to have another read...? 2020-08-29T12:50:50Z @ (re Walled gardens in disguise) Wait, no I'm on your side 😀I'm not convinced any kind of "curating" is actually productive to be honest. It leads to unwanted bias and social silos. I was just "questioned" about it because (_I guess?_) my Twtxt feed here is syndicated to my Micro.blog account 🤷‍♂️ 2020-08-29T12:54:30Z @ FWIW I asked @ some time ago if there was any possibility of self-hosting a Micro.blog instance, but the answer then was "no" and I guess its not going to happen any time soon? 🤷‍♂️ 2020-08-29T13:00:47Z @ (re Sigil and eBooks) Inspired by you, I installed Sigil tonight on my Macbook and "I didn't like it" 🤣 However I started poking around and came across this nifty little tool [md2epub](https://github.com/mdigger/md2epub) which I toyed around with and some of the [examples](https://github.com/mdigger/md2epub-samples). I got it to compile and built some of the sample books. Looks like the kind of thing I'd use! 👍 2020-08-29T13:15:16Z @ (re Sigil and eBooks) Yeah can't say I've ever written a book before though so we'll see! 🤣 Going to purchase your [Vryheid](https://gumroad.com/felixp7#) novel though, I've never really gotten into reading novels myself, so first time for everything I suppose 😀 2020-08-29T13:18:01Z @ (re Walled gardens in disguise) Removed? Oh that's a shame. I wonder if its in the [Internet Archive](https://archive.org/)? I don't even like that we _built_ a `[Delete]` feature here to be honest, but there are _very good_ reasons to be able to go back and edit your last twt or even delete it (_e.g: you said something silly, polarising, or something warranted!_); it kind of saddens me the world has gotten to a point where everything has to be "PC" and god forbid we should step on anyone's toes for fear we'll upset the poor little darlings! 🤣 2020-08-29T13:18:33Z Put another way... "Life is too short to worry!" 🤗 2020-08-29T13:31:19Z @ (re Sigil and eBooks) Ahh that's kind of neat turning a series of posts into a book. _Could_ even do that with a series of Twt posts (_though you'd be doing that for a full year before you had enough content for a book!_); And no I'm sure I don't want a coupon, very generous of you! But I'll throw a few $ your way 😀 2020-08-29T13:37:39Z I just added [Remote Mention Syntax](https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/pull/151) which is basically _syntactic sugar_ that turns `@user@domain` into the twtxt URI form of `@ < nick url >` 2020-08-29T18:21:31Z @dooven (re Walkies!)
