Creating an open source project can feel a bit like sending out an open invite to a party—will it be a roaring good time, or will you unbegrudginly dine on leftover junk food for the following week after nobody shows? When the first guest arrives, you breathe a sigh of relief. The party’s a success, […] ⌘ Read more

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net Yeah, I keep my account too - do not want to get rid of it, but I do not post much anymore there at all, just retweet stuff I find interresting. Also I’m so boring there that I get almost no followers and such, never got any traction there, even though I’ve been there since 2008. I write more here then there, and get more response here as well.

In-reply-to » @darch I think having a way to layer on features so those who can support/desire them can. It would be best for the community to be able to layer on (or off) the features.

We could ask them? But on the counter would bukket or jan6 follow the pure twtxt feeds? Probably not either way… We could use content negotiation as well. text/plain for basic and text/yarn for enhanced.

💡 Quick ‘n Dirty prototype Yarn.social protocol/spec:

If we were to decide to write a new spec/protocol, what would it look like?

Here’s my rough draft (back of paper napkin idea):

  • Feeds are JSON file(s) fetchable by standard HTTP clients over TLS
  • WebFinger is used at the root of a user’s domain (or multi-user) lookup. e.g: prologic@mills.io -> https://yarn.mills.io/~prologic.json
  • Feeds contain similar metadata that we’re familiar with: Nick, Avatar, Description, etc
  • Feed items are signed with a ED25519 private key. That is all “posts” are cryptographically signed.
  • Feed items continue to use content-addressing, but use the full Blake2b Base64 encoded hash.
  • Edited feed items produce an “Edited” item so that clients can easily follow Edits.
  • Deleted feed items produced a “Deleted” item so that clients can easily delete cached items.

Hi guys! My first ever Yarn post 😺 📦

I already think I am going to like this better than mastodon. My question is, is this federated… @support@twtxt.net ?? If so I am a lifer. Haha and I’ve been here 5 minutes 💖

I like to occasionally do some graphical artwork from time to time. For the first place to get all my art and other’s too check out XMPP at this address: xmpp:artwork@chat.toofast.vip?join

Another question, is this using markdown for markup? @thecanine@twtxt.net ?? Follow me back mateo! 😎

In-reply-to » Q: Is anyone actually finding the activitypub experimental feature I've been working on (for those running main) actually useful? 🤔 (because I'm not and having second thoughts...)

@prologic@twtxt.net I like it, I get to follow some people I could not follow before, which I find useful.
But if you have second thoughts about it all - then I can understand that.
If you decide to pull the plug on it - then I’ll just get some additional activitypub service installed on my server and use that for that (I was thinking about installing this: https://github.com/tsileo/microblog.pub ) if needed.

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.

@shreyan@twtxt.net first time I’ve seen someone mention gnu taler. Been following it since it was announced:) never used for anything other then testing though.

In-reply-to » 👋 Hey y'all yarners 🤗 -- @darch and I have been discussing in our Weekly Yarn.social call (still ongoing... come join us! 🙏) about the experimental Yarn.social <-> Activity Pub integration/bridge I've been working on... And mostly whether it's even a good idea at al, and if we should continue or not?

And mostly whether it’s even a good idea at al, and if we should continue or not?

I think that activitypub in yarn is a great feature! And also one of the easier ones to set up and get going.
And as I said last week - I think it’s a important features - and will drive adoption.
It is optional as well - so if one does not want it - just not turn that feature on.

I personally was missing the fact that I could not easily follow others before you added activitypub, but now I can choose to follow them, which is great.
