@deadguy I think the advantage of using twtxt.net over your own twtxt.txt is that you get the nice interface that @prologic and others built here and also the nice Goryon app that @dooven have built. If you really want to own your twtxt and still have all these features and the app I suggest you to install the twtxt software (same software that twtxt.net and twt.social pods use) on a machine you control.

I dont think we have an option to import an existing twtxt file to your profile here. But that'll be a nice feature to have!

@dooven @antonio thank you for clarifying. Also is the phone client on F-Droid?

@deadguy there isnโt a way to import an existing feed yet, except manually which I can do if you want. But I will file an issue because this has come up a number of times and I think itโs a useful feature to add! ๐

would importing into a pod imply using just the pod feed? or would it be possible to continue posting to a local feed and have it replicate on the pod? i feel like my second question would be more of a feature for a client rather than a server or pod, however. What do you think @prologic ?

@deadguy Yes it's all possible. We haven't built this support yet, but it is something I want to do! Do you have any experience writing Go? If so we would love the contributions! The way I was thinking of this working is to extend the command-line client we have today (twt) into both a traditional Twtxt client that mutates a local twtxt.txt file but also knows how to connect to a Twt.social pod. The expected workflow would be an (_optionaly_) occasional twt login and twt sync. What do you think?

@prologic I'm currently making my way through Head First Go, so it might be a little while before i can contribute code, but i'm all for making stuff. especially command line stuff. i even a couple projects i wanna try my hand at when i'm ready

@prologic and yes, i would consider credentials necessary when speaking to a pod. i suppose the sync could be performed as the post-tweet-command?
