@prologic@twtxt.net @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org First, please leave me your comments on the repository! Even if it’s just to give your opinion on what shouldn’t be included. The more variety, the better.

Second, I’m going to try to do tests with Elliptic keys and base64. Thanks for the advice @eapl@eapl.me

Finally, I’d like to give my opinion. Secure direct messages are a feature that ActivityPub and Mastodon don’t have, to give an example. By including it as an extension, we’re already taking a significant leap forward from the competition. Does it make sense to include it in a public feed? In fact, we’re already doing that. When we reply to a user, mentioning them at the beginning of the message, it’s already a direct message. The message is within a thread, perhaps breaking the conversation. Direct messages would help isolate conversations between 2 users, as well as keeping a thread cleaner and maintaining privacy. I insist, it’s optional, it doesn’t break compatibility with any client and implementing it isn’t complex. If you don’t like it, you’re free to not use it. If you don’t have a public key, no one can send you direct messages.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de ^^

@movq, @prologic@twtxt.net when navigating to a Yarn. If the head twt is missing then the whole thread is not accessible. It only returns an error. so i have no way to view any of the replies within the thread other than the end twt.

interesting idea. I’m not personally interested on having DM conversations on twtxt (for now), although I see the community could be interested in.

I’d suggest to enable the Discussion section in your Github repo to receive comments, as we did for timeline https://github.com/sorenpeter/timeline/discussions

I want to share a little idea for a new extension with the goal of adding direct messages in #twtxt https://github.com/tanrax/twtxt-direct-message-extension

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Who the F+++ still uses goo’s search engine anyway xD Shout out to all my homies hosting a Searx instance 😂🤘

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Schöne Bilder. Mein Teleskop muss ich auch einmal wieder aktivieren.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s so awesome! I really oughta make use of the telescope I was gifted a few years ago…

@movq@www.uninformativ.de ha, very cool!

Hola desde Hispa Emacs!! @cats@duque-terron.cat

@suitechic@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz it’s a great post!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org wow what a great story! i still use FTP (well, SFTP) all the time lol, just to transfer files between servers quickly. it’s super handy!

writing your own CMS sounds kickass omg… mysql the legend

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz <3333

@prologic@twtxt.net yellowjackets is about a girls soccer team that gets into a plane crash in the wilderness and start hunting and killing and eating each other. also there’s lesbians. it rules. season 3 comes out valentines day

@prologic@twtxt.net this is epic i need to try this

@movq@www.uninformativ.de my friend, I’m curious what is that interface? It’s like WindowMaker meets dwm, meets…? :D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de hahahah i hope you can get one someday if you want one! it’s standard lubuntu, so far no issues despite no official support for this weird little ubuntu flavor lol

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org OMGGGG I’M BRINGING AKB TO YARN LET’S GOOOOO!!!! SO glad you like them they make bangers!!!!! super catchy and fun <333

@movq@www.uninformativ.de we had a TON of fun omg my friends took a bit to learn the game then when they got it we got VICIOUS with each other it was so much fun lol

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org i’m a horrible gamer but i do best when playing kart racing games like this and mario kart haha!

@prologic@twtxt.net this is a great idea!

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz OMGGGGGG HELLOPRO PILLING OF IRENE!!!!!!!!!!! resonant blue is so good omg…. this makes me so happy :‘)

@prologic@twtxt.net <3

@bender@twtxt.net all by myself too T__T not that i wasn’t offered help i wanted the challenge but my back paid the price lol

@prologic@twtxt.net they post pretty frequently yeah, new articles like every other day basically

@prologic@twtxt.net IMHO: Most people like it the easy way: “Don’t make me think!”. If you do not pay money for a service, your data/content is the price to pay. Some handy mobile apps for the fediverse and the ongoing debate on social media services may get the people and their content out of the walled gardens of the 21st century.

@suitechic@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz it’s epic yeah very cool looking

@prologic@twtxt.net Just in case… the git link is missing a c in prologic

Thx @sorenpeter@darch.dk. Yepp, Yellow CMS is great! I stumbled across your extension and became aware of Twtxt and Timeline. Now I’m onto building my own little TwtxtReader.

@arne@uplegger.eu nice work with the client.
I also see you are using the Yellow CMS for your website🍋

Thank you @prologic@twtxt.net , I’m pleased to be a little “thread” in the ball of yarn (Twtxt).

@prologic@twtxt.net My account is @tanrax . Thanks!

@prologic@twtxt.net I can’t register with GitHub, nor make Pull Requests. Would it be possible to enable this? Maybe this repository could be on GitHub to promote it and increase collaboration.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz (they migrated their image backend from a deprecated third party plugin to a first party feature. which i did on the same codebase last summer with no knowledge of rails lol)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz sticker status!!!!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I DID END UP PUTTING IT TOGETHER BTW AND I VLOGGED IT (https://memoria.sayitditto.net/view?m=fGvHAMJvq) AND I LOVE IT SOOO MUCH

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Reading “The Book Thief” by Markus Zusak

@prologic@twtxt.net you change something up on how markdown gets rendered?

Image

@johanbove@johanbove.info Way to go! ✊ what will you be reading? Got anything planned?

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz real shit

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz slayyyy

@prologic@twtxt.net Is it possible to make Pull Request on twtxt.dev ?

@prologic@twtxt.net It’s opensource. You can run the software in your localhost or server. Cloud service is a free option.

Of course @prologic@twtxt.net! Check https://streamlit.io/

@doesnmppsflt@doesnm.p.psf.lt It looks like it… Although they shouldn’t be empty since Timeline took care of sending those. I believe I have an idea as to why that happened, but will have to test before filing an issue.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org HAHA! A forever stable major release eh? That’s brilliant 😃 …

@doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt I don’t know if you have already noticed, but your Twtxt/Webmention script outputs Timestamps from the future 🤔 I wonder if Timeline’s does the same …

@doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt Testing Testing… 123… Ouiiiiiii… 😆

@doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt Are you also using https://cabal.chat or just someone else with the same random username?

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Yes it works, thx: https://doesnm.cc/mentions.txt . I’m deleted html tags because my client do not support html rendering

@doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt Cool lets see if this works?!

@prologic@twtxt.net I say we should find a way to support mentions with only url, no nick, as per the original spec.

• For @<nick url> we already got support
  
• For @<nick> the posting client should expand it to @<nick url>, if not then the reading client should just render it as @nick with no link.
  
• For @<url> the sending client should try to expand it to @<nick url>, if not then the reading client should try to find or construct a nick base on:
  
  1. Look in twtxt.txt for a nick =
     
  2. Use (sub)domain from URL
     
  3. Use folder or file name from URL

@prologic@twtxt.net fuck yeah!!!

@prologic@twtxt.net <333 ty

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com i might give it a try soon!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org ahhh thank you so so much!!!! i’ve heard of shellcheck but haven’t checked it out properly - will try it for my scripts :D i really appreciate it

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org /Me throws his keyboard off to the side, grabs his camera just in case and runs upstairs screaming “Yeah! Science B_ !”

@doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt

I’m sharing new developments on the client. I now have a more stable timeline. The first version will appear in the next few weeks.

Video

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz That sounds interesting, good luck!

Need to summary all of these logic. So:\u2028 1. If file named twtxt.txt then grab parent directory name or hostname if file in root (and maybe delete ~?) \u2028 2. If file named nick.txt then grab filename

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz definitely a fun way to get better at bash scripting by hand (AKA learn how it works besides the extreme basics i know) and use gum to make them cute too

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz both scripts are here under the names ‘getlyr’ and ‘now playing’ if you wanna try them out yourself, just make sure you have gum installed (also curl and jq but most people have those i think) https://git.sr.ht/~chasinglightning/dotfiles/tree/main/item/home/.local/bin

@prologic@twtxt.net ah that’s good lol! i once pulled from main for a huge web app that i deployed and it haunts me because it will make upgrading so much harder lol

Ugh! Not @david@collantes.us, but this one. I am going nuts. Well, I am nuts!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think it was user error. Testing again.

If feed are named twtxt or tw then grab parent directory name!

@bender@twtxt.net (secret received!).

nick is yo? Btw say me which method you choiced. I want to make mention fixer like @bender -> @bender@twtxt.net in my post-hook

@prologic@twtxt.net so i did a mistake that i’ve done before and i think i just pulled from the main branch which is STUPID i KNOW and i don’t LEARN but whatever. i was having trouble with my go version and the makefile so i think i literally just ran it as my user with go in the path and redirected the binaries to go to a temporary directory i made and then moved them to /usr/bin lol. i’m not sure what could’ve caused this! probably something in the pipeline of weirdness i just wrote out

@prologic@twtxt.net thank you so much!

@prologic@twtxt.net LMAO thats so funny i need to try jenny i was trying it but i couldn’t figure out my twtxt sync script for it

@prologic@twtxt.net wait thats so cute re: the yarn name! i had no idea! we’re all just keeping the yarn ball rolling…

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz love this for you

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz trueee! good point

Let’s return to previous conversation: what if detect nick from url: pubnix.com/~nick/twtxt.txt is nick, domain.com/anick.txt is anick and etc

@prologic@twtxt.net Since I live in Germany, I do believe the media here is generally reputable. It really depends where you live of course. Source I look at are Reuters, NPR, The Guardian, Die Zeit, NY Times, CNN, Tagesschau, Spiegel Online, RP Online (for local news), … I would never just trust what I see in my social media feeds.

Thanks, I’m trying my best. Also, nice to meet you (and welcome back?) @oevl@twtxt.net, never seen you around before. 🙌

@prologic@twtxt.net Don’t you dare fix it xD it’s not a bug, it’s a feature! xD

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i don’t even have like time or space to stream unless it was no mic/video and just me doing stuff on my computer which can be boring without even mic input. plus no way to use camcorder that way. but. it’d be cool if i could so i dream

trying to set up @movq@www.uninformativ.de’s jenny client… currently trying to find where twtxt files are stored on the server so i can set up the scp script i have for this

@suitechic@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz shes the best <3

@suitechic@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz lol thats neat!

@prologic@twtxt.net i thought i was going insane when i saw blank posts on my TL i was like is noscript fucking with me again but no it’s you guys fucking around LOLLLL

@movq@www.uninformativ.de same here lol! my aunt actually got it for me so i’m super excited to tinker with it and i might record a vlog for it :D

Lol why you and bender twts are rendered but my with simular content are skipp3d? Upd: nevermind, i’m dumb, my twt are created in future because i type date -iS and replaces +03:00 with Z: https://twtxt.net/twt/yctmi7a

@movq@www.uninformativ.de An ähnliche Aktionen, von vor 20 Jahren, kann ich mich auch noch erinnern. Viel aktueller als damals™ waren unsere Spiele gestern auch nicht. BF1942, CoD, Flatout, CnC, AoE2, Unreal und Quake3, um nur einige zu nennen.

I mean bug where jenny don’t know about these id’s and tried to request from twtxt.net (prologic sent access logs)

This is the first screenshot, a simple timeline I’m using to check the fields. Now I’m working on some details: avatar cache, relative dates, simple thread, etc.

Hello @movq@uninformativ.de . Did you fixed jenny bug which causes fetching long ids from yarn instances on feeds like https://ciberlandia.pt/@marado.txt ? I’m asking because i want to store links in brackets on some of my posts and don’t want to confuse jenny users

Test twtxt parser (please remind me to delete this)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh this rules
