@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com No worries, all good, mate! We all have to start somewhere. Other software requests my feed several orders of magnitude more often.

I can confirm, the User-Agent header appears to be fixed. \o/

Two other things I noticed, though:

  1. Thereā€™s now an OPTIONS request for my feed coming from something that claims to be Firefox, pointing to your feed URL in the query. No clue what this is about. In any case, itā€™s rejected with a 405 Method Not Allowed.

  2. Not that these few requests bother me at all, but you might wanna implement caching next with either the If-Modified-Since or If-None-Match request headers. This way, if the feed hasnā€™t changed, the web server can reply with a 304 Not Modified and no body at all, saving unnecessary traffic. But again, this is really not an issue for me at all. I just wanted to make sure youā€™re aware of it, thatā€™s all. It might be even already on your agenda. Or you might decide to never do anything about it, which is also fine for me. :-)

↳ In-reply-to » Here is just a small list of thingsā„¢ that I'm aware will break, some quite badly, others in minor ways:

@prologic@twtxt.net I know we wonā€™t ever convince each other of the otherā€™s favorite addressing scheme. :-D But I wanna address (haha) your concerns:

  1. I donā€™t see any difference between the two schemes regarding link rot and migration. If the URL changes, both approaches are equally terrible as the feed URL is part of the hashed value and reference of some sort in the location-based scheme. It doesnā€™t matter.

  2. The same is true for duplication and forks. Even today, the ā€œcannonical URLā€ has to be chosen to build the hash. Thatā€™s exactly the same with location-based addressing. Why would a mirror only duplicate stuff with location- but not content-based addressing? I really fail to see that. Also, who is using mirrors or relays anyway? I donā€™t know of any such software to be honest.

  3. If there is a spam feed, I just unfollow it. Done. Not a concern for me at all. Not the slightest bit. And the byte verification is THE source of all broken threads when the conversation start is edited. Yes, this can be viewed as a feature, but how many times was it actually a feature and not more behaving as an anti-feature in terms of user experience?

  4. I donā€™t get your argument. If the feed in question is offline, one can simply look in local caches and see if there is a message at that particular time, just like looking up a hash. Whereā€™s the difference? Except that the lookup key is longer or compound or whatever depending on the cache format.

  5. Even a new hashing algorithm requires work on clients etc. Itā€™s not that you get some backwards-compatibility for free. It just cannot be backwards-compatible in my opinion, no matter which approach we take. Thatā€™s why I believe some magic time for the switch causes the least amount of trouble. You leave the old world untouched and working.

If these are general concerns, Iā€™m completely with you. But I donā€™t think that they only apply to location-based addressing. Thatā€™s how I interpreted your message. I could be wrong. Happy to read your explanations. :-)

↳ In-reply-to » @zvava @lyse I also think a location based reference might be better.

Here is just a small list of thingsā„¢ that Iā€™m aware will break, some quite badly, others in minor ways:

  1. Link rot & migrations: domain changes, path reshuffles, CDN/mirror use, or moving from txt ā†’ jsonfeed will orphan replies unless every reader implements perfect 301/410 history, which they wonā€™t.
  2. Duplication & forks: mirrors/relays produce multiple valid locations for the same post; readers see several ā€œparentsā€ and split the thread.
  3. Verification & spam-resistance: content addressing lets you dedupe and verify youā€™re pointing at exactly the post you meant (hash matches bytes). Location anchors can be replayed or spoofed more easily unless you add signing and canonicalization.
  4. Offline/cached reading: without the original URL being reachable, readers canā€™t resolve anchors; with hashes they can match against local caches/archives.
  5. Ecosystem churn: all existing clients, archives, and tools that assume content-derived IDs need migrations, mapping layers, and fallback logic. Expect long-lived threads to fracture across implementations.

ok so i have found a genuine twt hash collision. what do i do.

internally, bbycll relies on a post lookup table with post hashes as keys, this is really fast but i knew iā€™d inevitably run into this issue (just not so soon) so now i have to either:
Ā Ā 1) pick the newer post over the other
Ā Ā 2) break from specification and not lowercase hashes
Ā Ā 3) secretly associate canonical urls or additional entropy with post hashes in the backend without a sizeable performance impact somehow

Hmm, gnu.org is slow as heck. Shorter HTML pages load in about ten seconds. This complete AWK manual all in one large HTML page took a full minute: https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/gawk.html Is there maybe some anti AI shenanigans going on?

In any case, I find the user guide super interesting. My AWK skills are basically non-existent, so I finally decided to change that. This document is incredibly well written and makes it really fun to keep reading and learning. Iā€™m very impressed. So far, I made it to section 1.6, happy to continue.

I got that idea of moving back/forth from Drew DeVault, who ā€“ as it turned out ā€“ did something similar a few years back. (I tried hard to read as little as possible of his blog post, because figuring things out myself is more fun. But that could mean I missed a great idea here or there.)

A further check showed that all the network blocks are owned by one organizationā€”Tencent [4]. Iā€™m seriously thinking that the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) encourage this with maybe the hope of externalizing the cost of the Great Firewall [5] to the rest of the world.

I like the looks of your window manager. Thatā€™s using Wayland, right?

Oh, no. Itā€™s still X11. All my recent Wayland comments resulted from me trying to switch, but I think itā€™s still too early. Being unable to use QEMU (because it canā€™t capture the mouse pointer) is a pretty big blocker for me. This is completely broken, it just happens to be unnoticeable with modern guest OSes, so itā€™s probably not a priority for devs.

(Not to mention that I would have to fork and substantially extend dwl in order to ā€œreplicateā€ my X11 WM. And then, after having done that, Iā€™d have to follow upstream Wayland development, for which I donā€™t have the resources. Things would need to slow down before I can do that.)

This drives me nuts when my workmates share their screens. I really donā€™t get it how people can work like that. You canā€™t even read the whole line in the IDE or log viewer with all the expanded side bars. And then thereā€™s 200 pixels on the left and another 300 pixels on the right where the desktop wallpaper shows. Gnaa!

Sorry for going off on a tangent here. :-) Back to your WM: It has the right mix of being subtle and still similar to motif. Probably close to the older Windowses.
