Trying to post from good old twtxt.txt. Should this trigger a webmention to @sorenpeter@darch.dk ?

cc’ing my new persona on my new pod: @darch@neotxt.dk please go and follow me there from now on :)

@prologic@twtxt.net i’m starting to see more post from twtxt.net on neotxt.dk now, but they are still lacking their avatars and Following/Followers also not working yet.

It is just a matter of waiting for yarnd to fetch and catch everything?

@prologic@twtxt.net i do follow you on neotxt.dk:

But yours and other twtxt.net’eres profiles does not look up to date:
https://neotxt.dk/external?uri=https%3a%2f%2ftwtxt.net%2fuser%2fprologic%2ftwtxt.txt&nick=prologic

@prologic@twtxt.net I should follow you and most other active feeds from twtxt.net. I used the /import feature to migrating my feeds to the new pod. Adding you and other under /feeds gives this error:

@mutefall@twtxt.net do you mean “Refresh Cache” ?

or did we maybe mess up in the setup somewhere, so there now is a name conflict, because we forgot to change something in swarm-stack that i pulled down to my VPS

Hmm there seem to be especially an problem with feeds from twtxt.net, since feeds from other servers seem to be updated faster. So, @prologic@twtxt.net do you maybe need to whitelist my new pod somewhere at your end?

New home/pod over at https://neotxt.dk/~darch/

Big thanks to @prologic@twtxt.net and @mutefall@twtxt.net for patiently guiding me setting up DNS, VPS and Docker over several hours today🙏 Okay Bye 👋

@prologic@twtxt.net do you mean https://meet.jit.si/yarn.social

Hi @denisovich@twtxt.net, nice to see you here already //sørenpeter from #CreativeCodeBerlin

You are aware that it’s the 1st of April today😉

With twtxt/yarn of of the core idea is that you do not need to block sh!t, you just simply do not follow it in the first place

@mutefall@twtxt.net yeah, god ideas using names of plants and flowers (btw this is sørenpeter’s account on twtxt;)

@ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com some issue with the #UI

Nice work @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com you can also use CSS color names like red, blue, tomato instead of the hexcodes

Engage!

Thank you @mckinley@twtxt.net and @prologic@twtxt.net

Idea for how to implement quoting/re-posting: https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2022/03/html-attributes-you-never-use/#the-cite-attribute-for-the-blockquote-and-q-elements

@prologic@twtxt.net please make this Verify External Link thing go away again

@prologic@twtxt.net how does the UI “look” at the moment?
EDIT: https://git.mills.io/prologic/salty-msgbus-chat

@prologic@twtxt.net Here is my list of event tools:

• https://gath.io/
  
• https://github.com/aaronpk/Meetable
  
• https://gancio.org/
  
• https://gettogether.community/
  
• https://joinmobilizon.org/en/
  
• https://github.com/zack/event-manager

@prologic@twtxt.net nope but I also did not contact ar.al directly, only asked in the chat during a live stream under the name “anonymous”

Why do we need to build chat into yarn? Can’t you just run a matrix server and yarn pod on the same domain and be done with it?

I also just got plugged into the matrix as @darch:data.coop

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t know about dsarch 😉 but I guess this is the link you are looking for https://ar.al/2022/02/16/decentralisation-begins-at-decentring-yourself/

This guys are making some really cool tools - especially I want to use his crabmail to replaces various groups on Facebook, but I might want images support

I did see you reply, but I have noting to add. I know how twtxt works and to some extend also yarn, so no need to explain the obvious 😉

@apex@rawtext.club Nice, looking forward to taking it for a spin soon

@prologic@twtxt.net will you whitelist images from rawtext.club ?

@david@netbros.com I’m not sure where I picked up the term “offline-first”, but how @apex@rawtext.club describes it above is what I had in mind.

@apex@rawtext.club by offline-first I mean that you can use the client locally on the phone without an account on a yarn pod, similar to how the original twtxt client works. If this is the case how will it post/upload to a self-hosted twtxt.txt-file?

@apex@rawtext.club that sounds interesting. Is you client offline first?

@prologic@twtxt.net any change to make this feed render the video inline in the yarn UI ?

I tried to adding the atom-feed (https://thecodinglove.com/atom) instead of RSS, but twtxtfeed tells me “Feed already exists” - so maybe it can render the gifs/videos?

Did reply now. But I would be up for discussing these more in depth on a video call sometime

@prologic@twtxt.net I know what you are talking about😊 but the idea with pinned posts is to have some info at the top of you timeline/profile page and that can just as well be done with the description field. Also how would a pinned post look in the twtxt.txt file or will it be pod-only feature?

@prologic@twtxt.net fair enough. I guess I just don’t really see the need for this feature for where we are right now. I rather have search, filters and lists that pinned posts (but I have also expressed that before ;)

Why not just add multiline markdown support for the description field and let peopl use that instead?!

@prologic@twtxt.net using something like Gath for the event pages and RSPV handling makes a lot of sense. Gaths email model makes it easy for anyone to sign up.
Then we just add some event UI features to yarn like:

• click “Ceate event” in the yarn UI
  
• takes you to gath.twtxt.net and create event
  
• post public link to event to timeline of the user or if pod-events user

They, small-tech.org, were hosting a live stream yesterday where I asked Aral if he know about twtxt and yarn.social. He did not, but he does now was his answer😉

On the notes of #indieweb and #platformsocialism this guys talk on “Decentralisation begins at decentring yourself” really nails a lot of what we are doing here with twtxt/yarn: the why and the how, also how to make sure it is financially sustainable: https://ar.al/2022/02/16/decentralisation-begins-at-decentring-yourself/

We need to start a conversation with small-tech.org and see if twtxt/yarn/etc. could be part of what they are creating

There are already support for masondon and Friendica, so why not twtxt
https://github.com/lowercasename/gathio/wiki/Fediverse-Instructions

Having a twtxt feed from a service like Gath would be a nice addition to get notified about events in your timeline. I’m sure that would be possible to build and add to gath

@ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com and @prologic@twtxt.net Yes I’m also all for using existing stuff that works instead of building monoliths. Not completely sure what you meant with:

iCal feed/bot thingy

Just keep an eye on: https://events.indieweb.org/

Would love to see some yarn support for events :D Here are some tools for inspiration:

• https://gath.io
  
• https://gettogether.community
  
• https://meetable.org

@ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com yes I have had smilar ideas where you can theme your post. I images an CSS class for each user that will the take the hex-colors of their liking.

@prologic@twtxt.net so it wil be a bot for each city in the world?
Also for inspiration: https://twitter.com/emojiweatherdk and https://twitter.com/EmojiWeatherUK (witch i will just add to feeds.twtxt.net)

nice, bookmarked

I know, but by I have a 9 till 4 job that I need to attend to.

Great idea to connect with the indeiewb folks. I will be sleeping at that time (3 in the morning in my timezone) but looking forward to hear about it afterwards

Tonight (@18:00 CET) there is a online presentation of a new book on socialist social media that I think would be of interest for waht we are doing here with text/yarn
