@prologic I always liked bit.
I am disappointed that a GUI app would not at least have screenshots.

Got some good progress on the GTK gui today, got the timeline to work!
Took some time to figure out how the UI layout stuff works, but it looks good now.
I will add the avatars next.
The way it is right now - I got this up and running in a couple of hours, instead of 'days' with FLTK.
So I'm glad I made the decision to switch to GTK,
Right now I'm doing all development on Trisquel OS, windows version will come later on.
Also - since I thought about the possibility that I wanted to switch early in the process the code that does all the work is UI independent, meaning this was easy to do. +1 for planning ahead.. :)
I will post a screenshot of the new UI soon, once it's a bit polished.

@prologic I have to admit, I'm very confused by what's been going on with ActivityPub.
Everyone's always had the option of following a mastodon user because every mastodon account exposes an RSS feed. So if unidirectional follows were the desired feature, that already exists, right?
ActivityPub the protocol allows for two-way communication. There's an impedance mismatch between how yarn works and how ActivityPub works, but it's always been possible to bridge the two, following what the IndieWeb <-> ActivityPub bridges already do.
So, like, what exactly is the purpose of the ActivityPub work being done on yarn? What's it supposed to support? If it's just for unidirectional following, why not use feeds/RSS and call it done? If it's meant to be bidirectional, why not pursue building a bridge and borrowing from what the IndieWeb folks have already done?

@prologic Yeah, it would be nice to actually follow the conversations that goes on, that would indeed make it feel more useful.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, it isn't very interesting (for me at least) to "follow" people where "conversations" are just one sided 🤦♂️ it makes interesting discourse basically impossible and you end up just being an outside observer. Hmmm 🤔 -- Maybe Mastodon/Fedvierse is so big that even if we truly integrate, fix all the bugs, improve the hell out of the UX, that nobody will give a shit™ ? 🤣

@stigatle Yeah one of the things that worries me (aside from the very real spam problem that can and probably will occur) is the utility beyond following someone. I dunno maybe it's just me? I follow a few folks (or try to) in the "fediverse" space but it seems rather one-sided 🤔 -- maybe there's still bugs? 😅

@stigatle I've actually seen that project before, its probably not bad actually 👌 (not tried it myself though)

@prologic I like it, I get to follow some people I could not follow before, which I find useful.
But if you have second thoughts about it all - then I can understand that.
If you decide to pull the plug on it - then I'll just get some additional activitypub service installed on my server and use that for that (I was thinking about installing this: https://github.com/tsileo/microblog.pub ) if needed.
Q: Is anyone actually finding the activitypub experimental feature I've been working on (for those running main) _actually_ useful? 🤔 (because I'm not and having second thoughts...)

@axodys So news via RSS feeds? 🤔 This is what I use Twtxt (Yarn.social) for via the feeds.twtxt.net service 👌 (admittedly the UX _could_ be improved somewhat...)

A tiring yet very fruitful day at #WikiCon. And tomorrow there's more to come!
@prologic I might do that. But I like my page how it i because I can create entries on the go.

Got the cmake file updated, compiles and now it opens a GTK window, need to add the timeline and buttons that I had in FLTK, the other code related to parsing the statuses and all that is independent from the GUI so it'll be pretty quick to switch over once I have defined the new GUI elements.
Been going back and forth on the gui, I will move away from FLTK and go for https://www.gtk.org/ instead.
I'll spend tomorrow working on that. I need a more refreshing GUI then what I have now.
And also FLTK is a pain to get to work as I need - spend the whole afternoon trying to get it to use images (avatar etc) on my linux machine, and no matter what I've tried it refuses. So instead of wasting more time battling fltk I will switch to GTK.

What I really hate about Youtube videos of late, is the utter lies that are made up front. "NEw and existing blah blah blah, but before we get to that..." You watch it, and nothing, it was all lies, lies! 😱
