Twts matching #links

@prologic@twtxt.net @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com I often see messages longer than what the textbox limit is, isn’t it limited by the maxlenght?, I found a workaround by writing from Goryon on mobile, on PC i can simply change the limit with the inspector but isn’t it there for a reason?

I too would like to express a bit more if possible, especially if i have to refer to users and link URLs and images for example, having a limit that isn’t too much of a limit is kind of pointless i think. 🤔

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com the things Gemini has going for it are mutual TLS and lack of JavaScript. Which makes for a secure albeit boring experience (much like gopher). The fake markdown is a bit of a drag.

A render mode for Gemini probably wouldnt be too hard. There are markdown to Gemini libs out there.

With Web3 the whole trust a 3rd party browser ext + high fees + env impact for compute and storage are serious no gos for me.. I have heard one too many horror stories about clicking the wrong link and some script draining your metamask wallet.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de To clarify, Markdown is just text. 😊 I can do bolding, link things, and if single return multilines ever comes to jenny, I would be able to do bulleted and numbered lists.

Headings are OK too

The only things—that I know of—that doesn’t work is “> “, but I can use “>”, like so:

D’oh!

So, jenny allows me to write Markdown almost just fine!

Bringing back old-school web pins and buttons
Back in the not-quite-as-bad-old-days (at least as far back as the 90’s), every good website had a small “ad” gif that fans of the site could use as a colorful link. These are called “buttons” or sometimes “pins.”

You can see sites that collect these internet artifacts (both the good ones and boring ones) here and here.

Most people would have **do … ⌘ Read more

Stay frosty: possible test stream on PeerTube and YouTube in a bit
I’m going to probably be doing a test livestream in a bit. Hopefully I fixed the issue in the previous stream with Pulseaudio and buffering.

I’ll probably go live on PeerTube first, test it there, then test it on YouTube. I’m mobile and on limit battery though, so it won’t be a super long stream if everything works out.

PeerTube stream will be at this link: [https://videos.lukesmith.xyz/vi … ⌘ Read more

Livestream on PeerTube ONLY at 10AM New York time
As the title says, I’ll be livestreaming today on PeerTube only at this link.

I’ll talk about finishing my book reptinting project that you’re going to want to know about and perhaps “recent events” (several weeks late)
for example, on Richard Stallman.

I’ll read donations I get if you want to talk about other things.

If you haven’t already, subscribe to my PeerTube’s RSS feed to get up … ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » (#salij6a) but if we kept things simple stupid I how would the poor little darlings in middle-management have a job? 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net we would want:

  • a way to reply to the current thread. We have this.
  • a way to reply to a specific twt. Need this. Maybe make all the replies start new conversations?
  • check if twt is start of a conversation.. we kinda have this in the main feed with the conversation button. need to extend it for forked convs
  • a way to inline first replies. maybe show one or two in the sub thread with a link to view.
  • for convenience have a link to parent conv?

trying to get myself to reach for !links browser instead of firefox for locally testing my wiki. For the most part, it really doesn’t need the heft of firefox. When links -g is used, it really really doesn’t need firefox.

In-reply-to » I just built a poc search engine / crawler for Twtxt. I managed to crawl this pod (twtxt.net) and a couple of others (sorry @etux and @xuu I used your pods in the tests too!). So far so good. I might keep going with this and see what happens 😀

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah it reads a seed file. I’m using mine. it scans for any mention links and then scans them recursively. it reads from http/s or gopher. i don’t have much of a db yet.. it just writes to disk the feed and checks modified dates.. but I will add a db that has hashs/mentions/subjects and such.

PeerTube v3 is now live with Live Streaming abilities
PeerTube has recently released version 3.0.0, which has added many things, including the ability to livestream. I’ve already updated by PeerTube instance to version 3 (it is linked from this RSS entry), but the link is just videos.lukesmith.xyz .

I’m not sure if I’ll end up immediately using the livestream ability, but it is certainly nice to have a non-YouTube option which is, in fact, self-hosted.

Aside from that, I strong recommend you … ⌘ Read more

New website
Got a new simplified website. Real old school, no CSS sheet. I’m going to make it more text-based and have more writings.

I’ve also rolled over this RSS feed.

A lot of the site is still unfinished, so notify my of anything I’ve missed so far.
I want to keep old links more or less in place. I haven’t decided if I want to keep using my old blog script (this entry is RSS only).
I feel like I had neglected the blog for a while, and my new site is more conducive to browsing as I add even more. ⌘ Read more

I’ve recently been reading up on zettelkastens again, since it is very closely related to the ethos of a personal wiki system like !weewiki. The thing that interests me is the emergent patterns that come from linking things to things. Which is exactly the sort of solution I’m looking for !sample_curation. #halfbakedideas
