@prologic@twtxt.net I have thought about this because even though it doesn’t happen often, when it does it bothers me greatly. I haven’t found a solution. How about you? What could be done to avoid this from happening?
I know we have been over this in more than one occasion. Ideas about editing timeouts, or not allowing to edit/delete came up, but were quicky discarded as absurd.
@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com Oh But somehow @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org saw the old Twt and replied to that 🤦♂️
This is the downside of not fetching often enough or refreshing just in case a feed has changed your replying to hmmm 🤔
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org that is a horrible idea. A mobile device isn’t a server. Having a mobile device pull raw twtxt feeds from everywhere on an ongoing bases, will be, at the very least, tolling on the device’s battery. Just at you, or even further, I will never use such thing.
@prologic@twtxt.net sorry about the spelling mistakes. English is my third language.
Also I didn’t mean to question the vision as such.
Just ment a mobile up that pulls in files directly from the users follow list would line up better with the idea of decentralizing personal data. Since not everyone will be running a pod, but most everyone can have a public facing folder. Specially now with services like Skynet coming online.
Sorry hope I didn’t offend you too much.
@tamer@twtxt.net We’re not trying to compete with anything… If you’ve read About Yarn.social – In a nutshell I want to create an open, transparent social platform that respect’s folks privacy and freedoms. It must also be easy to use and down-to-earth where human interactions actually matter. None of this rubbish of manipulating what you see, driving up engagement numbers to serve your advertisers and all that garbage
Just reading in-depth and trying to understand the security model of Delta.Chat a bit more… There’s a few things that really concern me about how Delta.Chat which relies on Autocrypt work:
- There is no Perfect Forward Secrecy
- No verification of keys

Happy New Year 2022 Twtxt!
@prologic@twtxt.net woops, typo, fixed it lol
@jlj@twt.nfld.uk right now the getwtxt-ng source is in a private repo on github, though I may move it to sr.ht for its primary home (and just mirror it to github)
@prologic@twtxt.net Well.. well. well.

Hey @eldersnake@yarn.andrewjvpowell.com I just came across this cool little project recently. Not written by me sadly 😂 But seems like it would do the trick nonetheless 🤣 – How are you going with PageKite? Is it still working okay for your Yarn pod powered by the outback of down under? 😅 LMK if you’d like me to spin this up anad you can be my first tester 🤙
@prologic@twtxt.net what is this?

You’re right @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com I just watched Australia Post Outrage: Did She Need To Go? and I do believe I’ll start adding this to my “watchlist” – I don’t use Youtube specifically (because privacy eroding garbage); but the content this guy produces is awesome! 👌
Scotty from marketing really needs to be fired! Can we even fire Prime Ministers besides calling an election? 🤔 The more you dig into our #Australian #Government the more you realize just how fucking corrupt they all are and have been over so many years. How?! 🤦
@prologic@twtxt.net I think this is awesome. I’m proud to be part of this.
Annnd… I need to learn go. No money here, but at least I would make some cool PRs (or MRs?)
@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.

Someone in #twtxt on libera.chat asked a question and pinged everyone, and then left. The question was “is twtxt compatible with mastodon?” The answer is no. It isn’t.
@prologic@twtxt.net why were they even working? Did they think a big warehouse full of shelves of dangers would be safe?

I feel like
READMEwill need a rework soon. There’s a lot of options now. Or maybe a manpage instead.
For example that local_twtxt_dir MUST end in path separator should be mentioned somewhere ;-)

I’ve a problem with local_twtxt_file not beeing supported any more. Being forced to use twtxt.txt as file name breaks at least my URL.

🤔 👋 Reconsidering moving Yarn.social’s development back to Github: Speaking of which (I do not forget); @fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com and I were discussing over a video call two nights ago, as well as @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org who joined a bit later, about the the whole moved of all of my projects and their source code off of Github. Whilst some folks do understand and appreciate my utter disgust over what Microsoft and Copilot did by blatantly scraping open source software’s codebases without even so much as any attempt at attribution or respecting the licenes of many (if not all?) open source projects.
That being said however, @fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com makes a very good and valid argument for putting Yarn.social’s codebases, repositories and issues back on Github for reasons that make me “torn” over my own sense of morality and ethics.
But I can live with this as long as I continue to run and operate my new (yet to be off the ground) company “Self Hosted Pty Ltd” and where it operates it’s own code hosting, servicesa, tools, etc.
Plese comment here on your thoughts. Let us decide togetehr 🤗

@benk@kwiecien.us Ubuntu is being similarly mean to me. “Can’t upgrade X because Y depends on older version. Can’t update Y because there’s a dependency problem”. I’m pretty sure the dependency problem would be solved with an upgrade, but I can’t perform one…

Now this is very useful.. it means when yarn is doing an HTTP request to itself its not closing the connection. that could mean a http.Response Body is not getting closed.
