got jenny setup and threads works completly fine but now I want to figure out how to get auto publishing working
test again to see if it works
last test and if this does not work then I just have to run the git commands myself then
last test i am done testing now
@jason would you consider contributing documentation for other uses on how to set up Jenny mutt and auto publishing for the benefit of the greater community and ecosystem? π€

@prologic I do think the post about how to setup jenny + mutt over on the uninformativ.de blog is still a great post. I used that post to see the steps to set it up and it works fine. Though I can write some blog post with some more documentation for things like auto publishing. The big issue with plain twtxt is that I would have not seen your post unless I looked on twtxt.net when I was looking at yarn a little bit more. Twtxt does overcome the issue by introducing the registry but I can't figure out any way to use them for Jenny and almost no one uses them in the first place. So I can't see anyones replies or mentions unless I am following them. Yarn does overcome the issue by friends of friends as you would know as the creator of yarn.
@movq How do you feel about having a page on Yarn.social for setting up Jenny and Mitt?

@prologic We already link to the blog post, donβt we? π€ What would be the benefit of moving that to Yarn.social?

@movq There might not even be any benefit to moving that to yarn.social. Besides the yarn site should promote using yarn not twtxt even though there is a little bit of information on the site.
@jason @movq I didn't mean to say "move it to Yarn.social's landing page". What I meant was to say expand the Manually section and write some "How To" guides on setting up other clients like Jenny, Twtr, etc. Clients we've collectively accepted as good modern Twtxt clients.
And no, I've never wanted to just promote the yarnd software here, rather the ecosystem at large, the specs, extensions we've built together, other clients folks have built, tools, etc.
That is what many of us call Yarn.social, Yarniverse, Twtxtiverse, whatever else we've come up with over the last few years. I love to see users, clients and pods continually grow over time π

@prologic I never tried out any of the other clients except jenny with mutt. The best thing about yarn vs something like Mastodon is that its more promoted of the specification of twtxt files instead of server part. Twtxt can be hosted on some free static site host or some git server even so its really low resouces. Just a basic text file. As far as I know yarn is mostly just a web ui around twtxt and an extnetion to the specification to add some more usability and modern things. Anyone can join decentrilized network by having a twtxt file somewhere. If you want to support the specification of twtxt then that is really something most projects don't do and they promote the server software mostly.
@jason Spot on π You basically described the project perfectly π€

@prologic Hmm, Iβm not sure. Do we/you really want to maintain docs at Yarn.social about other clients? Follow their development and update our guides accordingly? π
I think the current solution is better: Have a list of clients and link to their documentation.
(Or maybe I still didnβt understand. π
Sorry!)

@movq Ahh no wait π€¦ββοΈ My mistake... We _actually_ do link to Jenny's README -- Maybe we should link to your blog post too? Hmmm π€

@prologic There is also a link to the blog post on the yarn.social site about how to setup jenny with mutt.
@jason There is?! Am I that blind π³

@prologic Your the one who wrote the page and did not even realise it was there. lol how nice (not a bad thing just funny)
@jason Yes yes but I do have a slight small excuse. I'm vision impaired (in fact blind) so I forget things visually quite often π
