@prologic@twtxt.net What on earth does “cloud native” even mean? What is the cloud but someone else’s server?
@prologic@twtxt.net I also feel it’s not well maintained, when I tried to use it a lot of things felt pretty broken - no public nick, config not in the twtxt.txt, following list stored separately, etc…
might even be best to just create a fork
@prologic@twtxt.net Pretty amazing how unprepared that guy went in
In 2021 the next big thing in tech were craptocurrencies and shitcoins. Now it’s LLMs (lying language models).
What’s next?
@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)
@darch@neotxt.dk Ah thanks! Hooray, it worked!
@prologic@twtxt.net Yep that’s exactly what I meant
twtxt is like social media but unix philosophy 🤯
@prologic@twtxt.net ooh that’s pretty cool
@darch@neotxt.dk sorry not sure how to install it, downloading the zip didn’t work for some reason
mkws web site https://sherman.codeberg.page/!
@prologic@twtxt.net how do you do that? sounds interesting.
@prologic@twtxt.net To be honest I find it pretty funny… just why the Bitcoin whitepaper? And what’s with the other image in the same directory?
I’m not anti-Bitcoin or pro-Bitcoin, it’s just an interesting choice
@screem@twtxt.net Exactly, this kind of double standard is just plain stupid.
@prologic@twtxt.net ah thanks for doing that, forgot to do it myself. I’ll remember next time 🙂
Thank you! That’s really useful.
@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?
Happy π day
plain and ordinary is cool 👍 I will check it out and try
@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.
not sure tbh.. also sorry for ghosting you for a 3 days :)
How do I contribute?
sure! happy to help.
Sadly I don’t have much technical expertise :( but I can help with anything that doesn’t require programming
@prologic@twtxt.net that is so cool.
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…
@rabble@twtxt.net on yarn.social too, wow! I’ve met you already on Mastodon and nostr… this is great.
Wait, does yarn.social support ActivityPub?
@prologic@twtxt.net Hi! Thanks :) This seems fun!
just setting up my twtxt
