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! 😎

I guess Google Hangouts is finally dead.

Why is Google such a mess at making messaging apps? This has more or less been a solved problem for decades. Google Talk worked well enough, and since it was based on XMPP and Jingle it was perfectly suited to become a large-scale text/voice/video messaging system. If they’d run with that they’d have been able to dominate that space, I think. Instead, they’ve created and shitcanned half a dozen messaging apps and platforms, flailing around copying someone else’s app (now they’re trying to copy Slack I guess).
