In-reply-to » @prologic I'm a bit confused about how the two different reply icon buttons behave. The speech bubble with a plus doesn't supply a post id tag to the edit field at all, while the double speech (conversation?) icon supplies the id tag of the post you're replying to rather than the original root. Shouldn't both options supply some kind of id tag to the edit field?

@darch@neotxt.dk Sounds good 👌

In-reply-to » @prologic Wow, I've missed some big changes! Very nice. :) Poderator admin makes loads of sense. Two questions, more generally: 1) I'm guessing my help account avatar is no longer valid; how do I update that (under the support account somewhere, I assume)? And 2) What are the criteria for the special interest accounts that show up here again? I just deleted it, but some random account ended up right under help, for some reason. Ta! Media

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk Yup the help feed is gone. Does it still show up for you? 🤔

In-reply-to » Not only Twitter is laying of employees: Meta Lays Off More Than 11,000 Employees The parent of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp reduced its work force by 13 percent and extended a hiring freeze through the first quarter of next year. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/09/technology/meta-layoffs-facebook.html

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net it’s amazing to think that Meta has over 85,000 employees – Or sis have 😅

To further expand (I just re-explored this myself, I guess I’m used ot it? 🤔)

  • In Timeline view, a Reply will show the (#hash) you’re replying to.
  • In Conversation view, a Reply _will not__ show the (#hash) you’re replying to. It’s implied from the Conversation view.
  • In Conversation view, a Fork will show the (#hash) of the Twt you’re replying to and forking.

I guess there’s some subtle differences that we need to take care of in the UI/UX to make things a bit more obvious and clear before we go completely hide them from the interface? 🤔

@axodys@octobloc.xyz Well there is nothing to work-around per se, just ignore it for now. But yeah in general we’re trying to remove the (#xxxxxxx) hash from the text area when replying and forking because we also shove it into a hidden field anyway, so we know what we’re doing generally from the UI/UX and Backend. If you happen to have any Go experience we’d love some help here to finish this work 👌

@axodys@octobloc.xyz yeah, I think it is a bug, or more accurately. I think we only half completed the user and to device change there. 🤦‍♂️

In-reply-to » I wonder if this thing actually even "federates" if at all https://honk.kyoko-project.wer.ee/

I think I’ve seen this before and even tried to study its source code and got “turned off” by the fact is wants to tie everything to a freak’n database 🤦‍♂️

In-reply-to » I don't know why people use #mastodon for. I though it can be a good replacement for twitter, but I m trying to find what is happening in Brazil, and apparently according to mastodon there is nothing happening in #Brazil. Seriously ?

@tkanos@twtxt.net Why’s that? Is it just the people that are on Mastodon that’s the issue, or how Mastodon works (or doesn’t) work? 🤔

Interestingly there’s more things about Brazil that our search engine is able to find that I expected 😅

In-reply-to » I don't want to derail this Yarn, so please fork this when you see it 😅 -- Speaking of FM Transmitters and what not, I actually have a new project I'd like to build with two requirements:

@mckinley@twtxt.net Yeah that would work too as an alternative. More build work though… Also I already have Plex (paid for a lifetime license some years ago). I’d have to make sure (if I continued to use Plex on the move) that it didn’t require outside network access just to function of course (which would be silly) 😅 – Only other thing to solve (if I went down the RPi + something route) is audio/music streaming… Need a way to stream to essentially a set of speakers that seem to only have an FM receiver hooked up to them, but maybe there’s an audio jack somewhere hmmmm 🤔

I’ll fork this myself 😅 – So far I know of Western Digital My Passport Wireless Pro | Plex Support which will let me take a portable “Plex Server” on the move with me and copy a subset of our media (TV Shows, Movies, Music) on the portable drive which runs a Plex Server and builtin WIFI Hotspot.

Problem is, this is only good for connecting say iPad(s) or iPhone(s) to the hotspot and using the Plex App. I can see no way to then stream something to a portable 12DC powered TV that basically only has HDMI input (and some older shit)…

I need something to connect to a wifi hotspot, stream a plex stream and re-stream that to a HDMI input source 🤔

I don’t want to derail this Yarn, so please fork this when you see it 😅 – Speaking of FM Transmitters and what not, I actually have a new project I’d like to build with two requirements:

  • Some kind of small compute device that can be powered either via USB or 12V DC Socket
  • A built-in FM transmitter so I can stream a subset of our own music (we’d copy form our NAS initially).
  • A way to stream Plex into the HDMI input of a small portable TV screen (also powered by 12DC)

In-reply-to » @darch @prologic is there any way to remove @~eaplmx (texto-plano)? It's a 'dead' twtxt currently. I only use @eaplmx (English) and me@eapl.mx (Spanish)

@eaplmx@twtxt.net The “Twter” object is probably still in @darch@neotxt.dk’s pod’s cache… Do you know what the URI of that feed was? Does it now 404 or NXDOMAIN or something else? There is a real problem with yarnd’s cache in that whilst we track “dead feeds” and “moved feeds” we don’t handle cleanup every well (yet…) – Working on it…

In-reply-to » Добавил вычисление Twt Hash для каждой записи в свой клиент, потом это можно будет как-то использовать. А ещё сделал наконец лимит по записям в ленте которые выводятся.

@batyshkaLenin@alexandr-sidorenko.me So does this mean you can finally reply to others in your client? 😅 🤔 (not sure if you follow me though…)

In-reply-to » Folks are slowly rediscovering coevolutionary algorithms without understanding that that's what they're doing, I guess.

Or in the case of Mastodon – Too complicated to stand up. And ActivityPub, too hard to build against. So I (almost by accident, I was looking…) came across the Twtxt spec/format and voila 👌

In-reply-to » Folks are slowly rediscovering coevolutionary algorithms without understanding that that's what they're doing, I guess.

@eaplmx@twtxt.net Yeah well the rest of the back story is documented at About Yarn.social 😅 I realised I actually did want some kind of micro-blogging / social media “thing”, but I hated Twitter™ (had an account once upon a time, deleted, re-created, deleted, and finally deleted and never used it), and any other social media are basically “yuck”, advertising centralised piles of garbage 😅

In-reply-to » Pinry Docs

@eaplmx@twtxt.net Even though I don’t use Pinterest and never “got it”, I do see some value in its “features”. Speaking of which… I believe @darch@neotxt.dk @hashrock@twtxt.net and I think even my dad @off_grid_living@twtxt.net would want and benefit some some kind of visual sharing UX on Yarn… I would fully support this (somehow), question is how… I’ve always thought we would just surface “media” as search results, but @hashrock@twtxt.net seems to think we can also have a “portfolio” profile view of some kind… Maybe some combination of both? I dunno 🤷‍♂️

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Nope not at all. Yarn.social was born out of a desire to be able to conveniently “blog” without the burden of a full blog which is time consuming and someyhing I never managed to do very well/

In-reply-to » Playing around with an implementations of Liats and Filters Media 👌

@justamoment@twtxt.net The main drivers behind lists are a couple of basic needs. @abucci@anthony.buc.ci for example would want to categorise some of his feeds as “fast” and others as “slow” and have different views for those. I would want to categorise some favourite web comics as “comics” so I don’t miss them (currently I missed them because they are inconveniently posted at the wrong times). More background/history can be found in the issue
