In-reply-to » So the news is telling me, Bluesky is the hottest new decentralized thing, with parole waiting month to join, or buying invite codes of ebay, for thousands of dollars.

@thecanine@twtxt.net I have a few invite codes. Message me on matrix as shreyanjain:matrix.org or email me shreyan.jain.9@outlook.com

XRPC is pretty neat but yeah until federation hits it’s a little iffy

You can 100% host your own right now, but federation lands sometime next month

In-reply-to » The discovery of the year is sxmo, he's damn good! It's hard to believe that a smartphone can do that. It seems crazy at first glance, but it's convenient.

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah sxmo is awesome. personally i daily drive sailfish os because i want the power of full gnu/linux on my phone but i still don’t want to abandon convenience, and it does feel the most complete of any mobile gnu/linux distros i’ve looked at and/or tried

In-reply-to » 'You Just Lied': Elon Musk Slaughters BBC Reporter In Live Interview - YouTube As much as I don't hold a very high opinion of Elon Musk (and to be fair I don't actually know him all that well, only what I've read about him and observed), this particular video however is quite hilarious. This (ignoring the Twitter™ nonsense) is hilariously funny and quite on point. "Who decides whether its misinformation anyway?" And "You can't even provide one example" Haha 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net Pretty amazing how unprepared that guy went in

In-reply-to » Given the continued hostility of jam6 and buckket over Yarn'a use of Twtxt (even after several years! 😱) I am continuing to face hard decisions.

@prologic@twtxt.net Honestly this is quite disappointing to see as someone new to the twtxt/yarn ecosystem - it feels like the entirety of the buckket argument is based on a “purist” viewpoint when nothing yarn does feels fundamentally incompatible with original twtxt

Very sad 😔

However I do agree with jan6 on that while yarn is a great twtxt client, twtxt is a terrible yarn client

That doesn’t mean that yarn should change its underlying format away from twtxt though, twtxt is probably yarn’s biggest selling point

my view of twxt is essentially a feed of arbitrary plain text data with timestamps, which can open up the ecosystem to all sorts of good experimentation in clients

and for the specific case of multiline twts, when you actively have a pr waiting which addresses the issue, the stubbornness of the opposition seems quite unreasonable

that’s just my two cents, didn’t mean to write a paragraph (lol a multiline twt for you right here)

In-reply-to » Often people run a node somewhere, then connect to it with the remote node feature from other machines. Or use a light wallet. Cpu use will go down when block chain is synced. Also just a tip - check the prune blockchain feature to save a lot of space.

@prologic@twtxt.net Check out GNU Taler. It meets at least some of those goals :)

@prologic@twtxt.net what do you think could help make it more decentralized?

In-reply-to » It is optional as well - so if one does not want it - just not turn that feature on.

@prologic@twtxt.net personally I think it should be there at user level for sure - that way ActivityPub-averse yarn users can join any pod and then decide for themselves whether they want ActivityPub or not, without requiring a pod owner to turn it off for everyone in the pod.

In-reply-to » just setting up my twtxt

replying to you from my yarn account - that was just me messing with hosting my own twtxt file on GitHub pages with the original twtxt client. I’ll probably use yarn more often though…
