In-reply-to » All these remind me of the "blog" ability once existed in Yarnd. I hate to be the party pooper, but little to non interest from me. LOL. I am up to increase the length of a twtxt, though. It is rather limiting right now.

@prologic@twtxt.net your father, and I, will be very happy. Thank you!

See:

<textarea id="text" name="text" placeholder="Hi! šŸ‘‹ Don't forget to post a Twt today!" rows="4" maxlength="576" required="true" aria-required="true"></textarea>

So, 576?

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t recall; ask prologic! :-D. I know your father has also mentioned it in the past (one thing I know him and I agree with, LOL).

In-reply-to » Just had a freak storm ā›ˆļø with lots of horizontal rain ā˜”ļø that took out and tripped our internal RCD (again) 😱 Took out our Fibre too (servers were fine, good 'ol UPS). Need to get a UPS for the Fibre box šŸ“¦ Haha 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net meanwhile we have all Korean shamans busy asking for rain. We haven’t had rain for over a month, and the next possibility is at week’s end, this week. Keeping fingers crossed!

And yes, UPS everything! We even have UPSes on TVs.

In-reply-to » šŸ’” I had this crazy idea (or is it?) last night while thinking about Twtxt and Yarn.social šŸ˜… There are two things I think that could be really useful additions to the yarnd UI/UX experience (for those that use it) and as "client" features (not spec changes). The two ideas are quite simple:

In-reply-to » Seem like it's a server-client thingy? šŸ¤” I much prefer tools in this case and defer the responsibility of storage to something else. I really like restic for that reason and the fact that it's pretty rock solid. I have zero complaints šŸ˜…

@prologic@twtxt.net no, it is not a ā€œserver-client thingyā€.

In-reply-to » I do not agree with every decision the Internet Archive makes, but I consider it a very important tool, for Internet archival and preservation - to the point, it even influenced what licence I chose, for my media and websites.

@thecanine@twtxt.net I signed, reluctantly. Not because I don’t care about The Internet Archive, but because Change pesters quite a bit for a while afterwards asking, of course, for money.

In-reply-to » i feel so powerful i wrote a 3 line script that takes an inputted markdown filename from the current working directory and then spits out a nicely formatted html page. pandoc does all the work i did nothing

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz pandoc is a joy! I haven’t used any Microsoft word processing tools since forever. They want a Word document? Pandoc to the rescue!

In-reply-to » @lyse It wasn’t our building, yeah, luckily. But I’m pretty scared it might happen some day. I think I’ll put more effort into preparing for that. But whatever I do, it would be horrific to lose all your stuff and the memories attached to it …

@movq@www.uninformativ.de it seems you got plenty of choices. That’s the cheapest of their products, and you are quite right, amazing pricing! I pay Apple $10/month for a shared-amongst-family 2TiB storage space.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de there are many other similar backup tools. I would love to hear what will make you pick Borg above the rest.

In-reply-to » I just noticed that my unread messages counter was off by quite a bit. It showed 8, but I only saw one unread message. Even after restarting my client, which recalculates the number of unread messages, it remained at eight. Weird. Looking in the database revealed that this is indeed correct.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 😱😱😱 I am assuming that’s happening with tt2, right?

In-reply-to » @prologic @bender @eapl.me @andros I'm new in the neighborhood and I would like to ask you something :) When a new extension is published in twtxt.dev , is it open for discussion or ready for implementation?

@javivf@adn.org.es having the extension listed means that it has been discussed and, usually implemented. Now, number 6 and 7 on the list as its stands today are not supported by any of the known clients. I believe their (again, 6 and 7) inclusion on the list has been precipitated, and lax.

In-reply-to » 7k words of docs on deploying a livejournal folk. you absolutely want to read 7 thousand words of me forcing dreamwidth into production shape in docker https://stash.4-walls.net/selfhostdw/

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz woah! That’s something else, kat! Heck, I document pretty much everything (more at work than anywhere else), and I have got to tell you, you put my ā€œdocumentationā€ to shame. LOL. Very well done!

In-reply-to » @andros maybe create a separate, completely distinct feed for DM? That way, clients do not need to do anything, only those wanted to "talk in private" follow themselves, using their very special dm-only.txt feeds. šŸ˜‚

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev define ā€œcompatibleā€ šŸ˜…. On the ā€œnot addressed to meā€, if I follow you, I will see your twtxts, whether they are addressed to me, or not.

In-reply-to » We had some nice 22°C today. But after work, it got rather windy and cloudy, temps rapidly dropped so just 14°C. Still a nice stroll to our backyard mountain. https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2025-04-16/

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I walked under 25°C during my lunch hour today, but with a sunshine that could fry an egg if dropped on the asphalt. I told a friend in Manila about it, and she told me that 25°C is Winter/Christmas temperatures for them. I felt cooler right away. :-)

In-reply-to » @<@marado@ciberlandia.pt https://tilde.pt/~marado/twtxt.txt> Hey! do you see this? 🧐

@xuu@txt.sour.is like, badly broken. I mean, the guy doesn’t even use twtxt (it is more like an RSS feed for him). So, yeah, even if it was the correct mention it would never reach the intended ears. šŸ˜‚

Setting custom primary and secondary colours isn’t working. I tried ā€œredā€ for first, and ā€œorangeā€ for second. Didn’t work.

In-reply-to » The tiny avatars, as expected (because they showed normal to you too @prologic), do not show under macOS’s Safari, but they do show on iOS’s Safari. It truly is a puzzle.

LOL. The compact view (which has its help tooltip broken, so one can’t tell when it does) was the one causing this issue. Turned it off, and all is good.

This on vp-compact.css:

.avatar:not(#profile-avatar .avatar) {
    width: 2rem !important;
    height: 2rem !important;
    margin-top: -0.25rem !important;

}

Is colliding with yarn.min.css:

.avatar, .avatar-full {
    width: 3.5rem;
    height: 3.5rem;
    object-fit: cover;
    border-radius:var(--border-radius)
}

Hahaha! And now they show tiny! I had to reload the page. So, I see the problem on iOS and macOS Safari too. I have no other browser to test with, I exclusively use Safari.
