@tdemin@tdemin.github.io good points, though another that I’ve noticed is that it’s difficult to tell who in your network is actually reachable with your tweets. My HTTPS cert went unupdated for a brief while and now I have no idea who is still following me since I got it working again, so it’s difficult to tell where I can really have a conversation. A centralized service can tell who’s following who, but that’s basically impossible in twtxt.
