In-reply-to » Just found out there's something called "twtxt registries". There are at least two of them online and it... aggregates twtxts on a semi-centralized consumable API?

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me I never saw the point of a registry to be honest, as it defeated the point of what I believed to be a truly decentralised non-social social ecosystem. What can and does work however is a search engine and crawler. I used to run one, but I took it down, mostly because it got expensive to operate, at least the implementation I built… Maybe one day i’ll try again with a SQLite backend.

In-reply-to » Six of my last eight posts were about twtxt itself. As much as it's understandable between all the excitement and confusion with finding out and using a new technology, I really don't want this feed to become something like this: Media (source) PS: I just noticed that by making this meta-rant I'm talking about not talking about *twtxt*!

In-reply-to » Alright. I have a minimal working instance of a twtxt feed. Now, what's the first thing we do? Exactly, FOLLOW EVERYONE!

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me I mean, if you’re talking about a “Follow me” button you can put on your site somewhere and it somehow magically™ works, yeah we haven’t figured out a good way to do this honestly.

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me

Replies aren’t actually broken, I just… need to add myself to the follow list?! That’s quite counter-intuitive and (IIRC) not mentioned in the docs. But… It seems to be working now, which is nice (I still don’t know how webmentions and webfinger works, so can’t speak about this so far)

yarnd (what runs here at twtxt.net) actually does this automatically by default. I think it’s just an implementation detail to be honest. There’s nothing about this in the specs over at https://twtxt.dev

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I know it’s crazy right 🤯 these things are just tools. They’re not even remotely intelligent at all. In fact they are actually quite stupid. If you feed it garbage you get garbage out! The only interesting thing is that you get somewhat intelligible garbage out 😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh dear god have we lost our way 🤣 I mean seriously?! Can we no longer think for ourselves? This isn’t even “AI Slop” this is just poor pathetic lack of discipline 🤦‍♂️ – And, frankly, no leadership.

In-reply-to » Weird. My timestamps are all being shown (on https://twtxt.net and https://darch.dk/timeline) one hour ahead of what I expected. Am I manually writing my timestamps wrong? Are the clients interpreting something I'm not aware of? Let me write this one on the "Z" timezone to try to debug it.

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me You need to use the RFC3339 format. I would recommend you read the specs at https://twtxt.dev – This is what is used by many moden clients these days 😅
