@prologic I just enabled it a short time ago! Pod looks a lot more lively for someone arriving and not logged in. Good job!\n\nI think Pleorma does something like this, and allows you to switch between users on the pod instance only and the wider network.

> switch between users on the pod instance only and the wider network

I'm not sure what to do here just yet... The Yarns search engine is still in development and _before_ I do that I _probably_ want to add a "builtin" search to pods too, independent of a "global" crawler and search engine.

@prologic I mean you have basically done it already.\n\nJust the pod admin chooses to enable or not with discover_all_posts instead of a public toggle button.
@laz Oh it's actually already togglable via the Web Interface under Settings -> Pod Management -> Manage Pod. You can enable these "experimental / options" features there too. So far there's just one, and thee idea is to eventually either graduate the features into first-class configurable configuration items or bake them in as permanent features.

@laz i.e: You _can_ already change this live without restarting 👌

@prologic Yes, this is what I've done.\n\nI'm just highlighting that other sites are allowing *anyone* to toggle this and flip between 'public network' and 'known network'.\n\nThen again, some owners might prefer not to use this e.g. a single-user pod as a personal microblog.
@laz Oh 🤦‍♂️ I see what you're saying... As user-togglable UX Hmm 🤔 Yeah like I said I don't really know how to do this just yet, the "network" needs to grow a fair bit larger before I fully under the repercussions of of "I wonder what's going on everywhere else". OTOH _this_ can actually be done already somewhat with a simple query to Yarns like this:


$ curl -qso - -H 'Accept: application/json' "https://search.twtxt.net/search?q=$(echo -n "+text:*" | urlenc enc)&s=-created" | jq '.'



So _in theory_ this _could_ be integrated into pods...
