twtxt.net"Problems are Solved by Method" 🇦🇺👨💻👨🦯🏹♔ 🏓⚯ 👨👩👧👧🛥 -- James Mills (operator of twtxt.net / creator of Yarn.social 🧶)
👋 Let’s crowdsource a submission for the Internet Freedom Fund 🤞 Please help me fill out all the TBD sections… 🙏
Apparently there are some ~30 users (real people) that actively use my pod twtxt.net 😳 in the past 90 days. 😅 The question I have is; what can we do as a small community here? 🤔 We have an Open Collective; but it doesn’t receive enough funds to be useful enough (yet?) to pay for small projects and continuous improvements.
What else can we do? 🤔
Additionally there are 7 other pods online too 😅 But not sure of their stats…

yarnd setup look like to anyone? 🤔 Let's say it exists, and it helps you setup a Yarn pod in seconds. What does it do? Of course I'd have to split out yarnd itself into yarnd run to actually run the server/daemon part.
Thanks@movq @mckinley@twtxt.net This is great feedback! I’ll tidy up a few things today! If there’s anything else not super clear ot obvious, please let me know. Maybe you too @bender@twtxt.net if you can remember 😅 – Yes yes I know there’s still some issues you have with the cache behavior, etc (on the roadmap).

Speaking of which @prologic, have you heard from @ocdtrekkie lately? He's active on mastodon but I haven't seen him around here in a long time.

@mckinley@twtxt.net I have actually. He/I occasionally have a chat on Signal. Unfortunately I tried the whole Twtxt<->AP thing in yarnd but I’ve given up on the idea for now. I will one day write a dedicated service however, as I think that’s the only reasonable way to do integrate Twtxt and ActivityPub realistically.

@prologic I agree with @movq. Good documentation is better than an interactive setup process. My difficulties (#isyb2aq) were because I was just doing it for testing and I wanted it running as quickly as possible. If I was running it in a production capacity, I would read through the documentation.

@mckinley@twtxt.net Thanks. This is good feedback! I think from what @movq@www.uninformativ.de also said, I might just spend today tidying things up a bit that might be a bit off.

Experiment: Locking down my Android phone in the firewall, only allowing outgoing connections that I approve of. Let’s see how that goes.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeap! I totally get it 🤣 It’s the same as some macOS stuff that I found that “proxies” egress connections on behalf of other apps. I’m like wtf?! Get fucked 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah it’s frightening how much our “devices” talk to “things”, things we don’t even know about or have any control over (or very little) 😳 I’ve been doing this for my personal Mac with Little Snitch, and I’ve blocked so much shit™ directly from my Mac. Quite happy with that. Not I just have to figure out how to do similar things for my iPhone 📱

I made some improvements to the Twtxt Search service tonight. Hopefully this update makes it a bit easier to use and resolves some of your critical pieces of feedback @lyse 🤞 The main idea being that by default the search is basically a "Query String" type search, meaning that it does what you expect. If you search for a simple term, it'll do that, If you enclose your search term in "double quotes" it'll search for that phrase. If you then want to search against specific fields you can do so with

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh you said “version” Hmmm 🤔 Yeah I’m missing something in the Docker piblish workflows 🤔
Home - man.sr.ht The way this app is descriebd and works sounds a lot like what we built with “threading” here 😅

@movq Hda to look this up and after I had done so (successfully after some improvements to the search engine) I am convinced that this is the right path to go down in terms of "I want to see old stuff" 😅

@mckinley@twtxt.net It’s okay 👍 It only becomes problematic for the start of a tree or sub-tree. In-between is okay as long as nobody forks your edit and you reply to your root 🤣

I'm starting to embrace containers on my PC for software I want to use once without littering my home folder with junk files. It's nice.

@mckinley@mckinley.cc That’s actually one of the most useful aspects of so-called “containers”, really images, or effectively tarball(s) with a full userland that you can effectively chroot in to.

Well it’s configurable, but by default it depends which gets filled up first. Time or Size.

One great feature of Vim (and probably other editors) is “keyword completion”: Type the beginning of a word, then press Ctrl-N and Vim will give autocompletion options by scanning all the words in the current file. For example, when I now type “au” and then Ctrl-N, it will suggest “autocompletion”.

@aelaraji off topic, I think you are using hard wrapping, or something similar, on mutt/neomutt. The formatting of your twts come up a little off. Specifically, the line wraps.

Looks like he’s just pressing enter twice really, resulting in what I think are hard paragraphs 🤣
e2 80 a8 is the hexdump for \u2028 – the unicide newline character used in multi-line twts.

@bender@twtxt.net Trust you to pick up on something like that 🤣 Looks fine to me, but then again I’m not sure where those lines should or should not be separated 😅
