@marado@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net I’d rather we figure out a way to improve the UX (if we can) without introducing a “forever visible” or “a rdbms”. I’d like to see something like (for example) “Click here to load older replies…” or something like this 🤔
regarding the spam, bots and spam accounts, that we seem to be attracting lately… What if we build a feature where instead of just completely open registrations, we change this to accept an email address that sends an email to the pod operator with a link to accept or reject the registration?
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci what about work meetings and video conferencing?
⨁ Follow
button on their profile page or use the Follow form and enter a Twtxt URL. You may also find other feeds of interest via Feeds. Welcome! 🤗
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Yeah I don’t get wtf these zit and sic is all about 😆 Is this a known spam bot or something? 🤔
I’ve never liked the idea of having everything displayed all of the time for all of history.
And I still don’t: Search and Bookmarks are better tools for this IMO.
From a technical perspective however, we will not introduce any CGO dependencies into yarnd
– It makes portability harder.
Also I hate SQL 😆
@bender@twtxt.net Also help me understand 🙏 What made you go looking for a ~2 week old Yarn? 🤔 There is a deliberate design decision here, but it’d be good to understand your thought process in case my plans to improve/fix this side effect are off 🤣
@bender@twtxt.net Well it’s not possible right now but we’ll get there I’m sure 🤞
@bender@twtxt.net Trust me, this has always been the case 🤣 And my pod has always been running the default -I/--max-cache-items
and -C/--max-cache-ttl
:
$ yarnd --help 2>&1 | grep -E "\-(I|C)"
-I, --max-cache-items int maximum cache items (per feed source) of cached twts in memory (default 150)
-C, --max-cache-ttl duration maximum cache ttl (time-to-live) of cached twts in memory (default 336h0m0s)
🤣
@bender@twtxt.net How would you propose we improve the search engine’s interface and functionality? 🤔
It happens to me too, but it’s never bothered me 😅 Example this conv where my replies are all gone now (I posted too much 🤣)
@bender@twtxt.net You mean these ones? https://search.twtxt.net/search?q=%23svvpd3a&p=1&t=term&f=conv&s=-created&s=_id
Or are you complaining that replies have fallen off the active cache? 🤔 🤣
=> https://search.twtxt.net/search?q=%23svvpd3a&p=1&t=term&f=conv&s=-created&s=_id
@antonio@twtxt.net Thanks! 🙏
@bender@twtxt.net You mean @eaplmx@twtxt.net’s reply didn’t show up in your mentions? 🤔
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Would they only work on behalf of US citizens? 🤔
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Have you tried the app? I just read up on it, and I’m not actually sure how it works. What information do they ask of you so they can tell you what companies have data on you? 🤔
@darch@neotxt.dk Hah I guess that’s the point of the Custom CSS 🤣
@darch@neotxt.dk Been making small live mods to my pod’s CSS last few days. What do you think? 😅
yarnd
impose a limit of four or five posts per minute, either from the Web App or the API?
@darch@neotxt.dk Oh it is a future problem we will eventually have. It would be considered an abuse of a pod and a disruption to others to “post too fast”, but I think yarnd
should have a configurable hard limit of what this should be with a sensible default.
I’ll write up an issue referencing this Yarn and implement it as a feature flag at some point (no rush on this one, we’re still quite small).
@ychbn@twtxt.net Oh I _tried _ to make the whole block “clickable and navigate to the same place the “Yarn” button does, but I couldn’t make it work properly 😢
yarnd
impose a limit of four or five posts per minute, either from the Web App or the API?
@darch@neotxt.dk All good questions, in order:
- no
- yes
🤔 Q: Should yarnd
impose a limit of four or five posts per minute, either from the Web App or the API?
Me communicating in Emojis 🤣

@johano@twtxt.net I believe you will need to pass the -d/--delete
option now. If that doesn’t work, I’ll blow away this pod’s cache and let it repopulate the cache.
@johano@twtxt.net Things are being duplicated because you’re changing the “Hashing URI”. See https://twtxt.net/twt/tv3piaq
@johano@twtxt.net make sense? 🤔
And by changing the 1st # url =
field you’ve changed the “Hashing URI” of your feed. Things will get weird when syncing back to your twtxt.net
feed, and I mean really weird. I would recommend the following setup:
# url = https://twtxt.net/user/johano/twtxt.txt
# url = https://gem.chiajlingvoj.ynh.fr/twtxt.txt
# url = gemini://gem.chiajlingvoj.ynh.fr/twtxt.txt
especially if you want to be able to take advantage of your feed here and use the mobile app, etc. This is something we’re working on, but for hit it has to be this way or hashes/threads get a bit weird 😅
Ooops how did this happen:
# nick = johano nick = johano
That probably just wants to be # nick = johano
😅
@johano@twtxt.net The fact I see this here probably means you did and it worked 😅 It’s a two-way sync, and you can also pass the -d/--delete
option in case you want to delete something out of your feed and sync those deletions too 👌
@johano@twtxt.net Yeah one of the things I’m trying to do this year is actually properly rebrand and release the app to the App and Play stores. We’re not there yet 😢 One of the reasons we’re raising funds to help get this done (I’m not mobile dev :/)
@johano@twtxt.net Ahh the version you’re using it out-of-date. Where did you get that version from? 🤔 Are you on iOS or Android? 🤔
@marado@twtxt.net Yup this is true 👌 Right now where I live we have a party called the Greens, and they actually won quite a lot of seats, especially in/around my area. So fully supporting them 🙏
What I worry about sometimes if that we may already be in a situation where many countries, hell even the world, are really run by large powerful corporations and not the government we put in power and pretend to have democracy 🤦♂️
@marado@twtxt.net @abucci@anthony.buc.ci I agree with you both, I’m jut saying that I have no faith in governments anymore. At least in our country, Australia, with a two-party system, they are basically just corrupt as fuck, and controlled by big oil (BHP, RIO) and big media (New Corp) 😢 Most (besides maybe the banking regulators?) are spineless 😢
@ychbn@twtxt.net No it didn’t, I was/am just experimenting and playing around with my pod’s css live 😅 Do you hate it? 🤣
@johano@twtxt.net Yes yes there is! We developed the Sync API and yarnc sync
command-line tool for this reason 👌 (something I always wanted to have, for this very reason, for backups, etc). @marado@twtxt.net myself and a few others also use this 👌 Usage is simple:
$ yarnc -u https://twtxt.net login
$ yarnc sync twtxt.txt
@johano@twtxt.net If you discover any new bugs or improvemnets, please file issues so we can get them done before we finally release the app 🙏 Check https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/app/issues
I kid of course, you make very good points, but I’m sorta half kidding too 😅
@thecanine@twtxt.net Nope band it all! Band AI Art, Chat GPT, CoPilot all things that just take our hard earned and fought for and worked for data and abuse and profit off it 🤣
@ychbn@twtxt.net What do you mean? 🤔
@marado@twtxt.net I’m no longer convinced that “regulation” works at all 🤦♂️
@thecanine@twtxt.net Just watched the linked video all the way though. My god I didn’t’ realise things have already gotten this bad 🤦♂️ Bann all AI Art! 🤬
I guess no-one is coming? 😅
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org But you know they will 🤣 It’s only inevitable 😅
@thecanine@twtxt.net Yeah that has always befuddled me too 🤦♂️
Yarn.social call in an hour? 12pm UTC?
@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club Hah cool story and awesome images 🤣
@thecanine@twtxt.net For me it’s a bit like software really. Back in the ‘old days, people used to value software, they’d pay money for good software. Nowadays, people don’t. THey are happy to either pay a subscription fee or pay $0 for a service that erodes their privacy/security and shoves ads in their face with data collected on them and sold to the company’s actual customers (not you).
@thecanine@twtxt.net I guess that’s because the RIAA have very powerful lawyers and depe pcokets, whereas the (how da fuq) representatives of artists are largely non-existent?! 🤔
