Trying to post from good old twtxt.txt. Should this trigger a webmention to @sorenpeter ?
cc'ing my new persona on my new pod: @darch please go and follow me there from now on :)
@prologic i'm starting to see more post from twtxt.net on neotxt.dk now, but they are still lacking their avatars and Following/Followers also not working yet.
It is just a matter of waiting for yarnd to fetch and catch everything?
@prologic I should follow you and most other active feeds from twtxt.net. I used the /import feature to migrating my feeds to the new pod. Adding you and other under /feeds gives this error:
or did we maybe mess up in the setup somewhere, so there now is a name conflict, because we forgot to change something in swarm-stack that i pulled down to my VPS
Hmm there seem to be especially an problem with feeds from twtxt.net, since feeds from other servers seem to be updated faster. So, @prologic do you maybe need to whitelist my new pod somewhere at your end?

Big thanks to @prologic and @mutefall for patiently guiding me setting up DNS, VPS and Docker over several hours today🙏 Okay Bye 👋
You are aware that it's the 1st of April today😉
With twtxt/yarn of of the core idea is that you do not need to block sh@t, you just simply do not follow it in the first place

@mutefall yeah, god ideas using names of plants and flowers (btw this is sørenpeter's account on twtxt;)
Nice work @ullarah you can also use color names like red, blue, tomato instead of the hexcodes

@prologic please make this Verify External Link thing go away again
@prologic how does the UI "look" at the moment?
@prologic nope but I also did not contact ar.al directly, only asked in the chat during a live stream under the name "anonymous"
@prologic nope but I also did not contact ar.al directly, only asked in the chat during a live stream under the name "anonymous"
Why do we need to build chat into yarn? Can't you just run a matrix server and yarn pod on the same domain and be done with it?
I also just got plugged into the matrix as @darch:data.coop
This guys are making some really cool tools - especially I want to use his crabmail to replaces various groups on Facebook, but I might want images support
@prologic copy the page to a spreadsheet and apply filtering
I did see you reply, but I have noting to add. I know how twtxt works and to some extend also yarn, so no need to explain the obvious 😉
@apex Nice, looking forward to taking it for a spin soon
@prologic will you whitelist images from rawtext.club ?
@david I'm not sure where I picked up the term "offline-first", but how @apex describes it above is what I had in mind.
@apex by offline-first I mean that you can use the client locally on the phone without an account on a yarn pod, similar to how the original twtxt client works. If this is the case how will it post/upload to a self-hosted twtxt.txt-file?
@apex that sounds interesting. Is you client offline first?
@prologic any change to make this feed render the video inline in the yarn UI ?
I tried to adding the atom-feed (https://thecodinglove.com/atom) instead of RSS, but twtxtfeed tells me "Feed already exists" - so maybe it can render the gifs/videos?
Did reply now. But I would be up for discussing these more in depth on a video call sometime
@prologic I know what you are talking about😊 but the idea with pinned posts is to have some info at the top of you timeline/profile page and that can just as well be done with the description field. Also how would a pinned post look in the twtxt.txt file or will it be pod-only feature?
@prologic fair enough. I guess I just don't really see the need for this feature for where we are right now. I rather have search, filters and lists that pinned posts (but I have also expressed that before ;)
Why not just add multiline markdown support for the description field and let peopl use that instead?!
@prologic using something like Gath for the event pages and RSPV handling makes a lot of sense. Gaths email model makes it easy for anyone to sign up.
Then we just add some event UI features to yarn like:
- click "Ceate event" in the yarn UI
- takes you to gath.twtxt.net and create event
- post public link to event to timeline of the user or if pod-events user
They, small-tech.org, were hosting a live stream yesterday where I asked Aral if he know about twtxt and yarn.social. He did not, but he does now was his answer😉
Having a twtxt feed from a service like Gath would be a nice addition to get notified about events in your timeline. I'm sure that would be possible to build and add to gath
@ullarah and @prologic Yes I'm also all for using existing stuff that works instead of building monoliths. Not completely sure what you meant with:
> iCal feed/bot thingy
@ullarah yes I have had smilar ideas where you can theme your post. I images an CSS class for each user that will the take the hex-colors of their liking.
I know, but by I have a 9 till 4 job that I need to attend to.
Great idea to connect with the indeiewb folks. I will be sleeping at that time (3 in the morning in my timezone) but looking forward to hear about it afterwards
I kinda enjoyed it, but yeah it's lacking all the philosophy from the first ones -
The Critical Drinker does a good there-down

@prologic by everyone having write access to the feed using some API maybe.
Could we turn twtxt on it head, so these encrypted feeds are something that all participant are writing to, more like a IRC channel: 2021-01-31T09:59:00Z <darch> message ?
@prologic @eaplmx I also like the idea about a separate feed for encrypted messages using the post-as feature maybe, so it's easier for other clients to no see the noise of salty jibberish
@prologic nice😊 what I have done in Pixelblog is to filter out posts contains any markdown image () and render eatch match as its own image, that then links back to the original post See the code for gallery.php
Do you want to have gallery view for all the feeds someone follows or just under eatch user on the profile page?
@prologic to be fair I did not read the spec and I hadn't had my coffee yet😴You are of couse as aways free to build what you like. I just see twtxt/yarn/pixelblog as a way for open broadcasting. Private communication would be better of using separate technology. I just rather see a working search and filtering feature build into yarn or as a separate service than adding features that is in my opinion out of scope for twtxt.
Simple answer: no, don't do it. For the uses cases use something else instead of adding complexity to twtxt
@eaplmx let do what? sorry I'm not sure what we are talking about...
Ma oskan natuke eesti keelt så jeg forstår også få ord på finsk
@lyse det bliver de snart håber jeg
@eaplmx why not, what?

@david where is the fun in that 🤣
language detection sound like over-engineering to just scrolling down past what you don't understand
@movq @lyse det er lidt kedeligt at være den eneste dansker i denne garnverden, men håber på en dag af få spedt denne trolddom til mange andre her til lands og i resten af verden og ude i rummet en dag måske.

@adi thx for the link. I might get one for myself if it was not in the US, but way to much stuff that can break and to learn for my friends here in Copenhagen who I'm building this thing for.
@adi and @prologic to the question about PHP. My goal is to make something anyone with ftp access can deploy in a hour without having to use a command prompt. SSH access also often comes at a extra fee if available at all. I know PHP is not the most efficient out there compared to go and static site generators like pp, but my target users are not professional programmers like you guys - pixelblog - a twtxt frontend not just for hackers™
@prologic You are more than welcome to nick what every ideas and features you like - the only really new think pixelblog is adding is the gallery view, where you are free to rewrite it go.
@lyse Thank for the PR fixing the typo and for reminding me to get rid of the apple garbage files.
@prologic Africa is not a country, but a continent consisting of many countries. But Australia is kinda both at the same time... right?
I liked your comment you made as the alt-text that I only saw because I opened up you twtxt.txt to chech if you linked to my file or re-uploaded it;)
Someday nfts will be like rubels in the USSR or other runaway inflation
