I’m wrong! Both 404 and 410, among others, are considered dead feeds: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/yarn/src/branch/main/internal/cache.go#L1343 Whatever that actually means.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org well, well, so much for “that isn’t actually true as it depend on the ingress architecture and networking”, @prologic@twtxt.net… :-P

If case it wasn’t clear, and from the horse’s mouth itself (my emphasis):

// These are permanent 4xx errors and considered a dead feed

@bender@twtxt.net I’m not a yarnd user, but automatically unfollowing on 404 doesn’t seem right. Besides @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org’s example, I could imagine just accidentally renaming my own twtxt file, or forgetting to push it when I point my DNS to a new web server. I’d rather not lose all my yarnd followers in a situation like that (and hopefully they feel the same).

Haha!
