@prologic you're planning to stop AP support before doing the bridge?
compiled and ran the desktop client on riscv tonight. my mangopi only has 512mb ram, but it was enough to compile and run it :)
Move my blogging workflow to Gemini and RSS only. So the RSS feed replace the ATOM one, sorry for the noise

@prologic I am saying that you could create your own registry for yourself, your own use, so only you would use, but yeah.
a) Yeah, there could still be registries related to communities, so
making a follow new users from registry feature might be nice, but I
don't know really.
b) You can register to as many registers as you'd like
c) That's the same problem as right now technically, we could create
registries that are related to specific fields, like tech (many tech
registries), housing and all that, but I don't really know.
@movq Yeah, I guess then I'd have to make some system to tailor my requirements. So yeah it'll open up the gates for spam I guess, depending on how it's configured.

@movq Yeah I concur 👌
> twtxt is very pull-based at the moment. In my eyes, this is a core feature. Making it push-based changes the game a lot. 🤔
This is the primary reason I'm pulling activity pub support out of yarnd. I _may_ (_and it was planned_) still build a completely separate service the abstract away the "push" nature of ActivityPub forcing our usage/interaction of it to be "pull" based. We'll see 🤔

@jmjl Hmmmmmmm, I’m not sure. 🤔 Other than what @prologic said, I think this could be one of those features that open the gates for spam. You don’t really have control anymore over which people you follow, so anyone could come along, push twts to that registry and thus spam your timeline. (Hence jenny would also need a *mute* feature.)
twtxt is very *pull*-based at the moment. In my eyes, this is a core feature. Making it *push*-based changes the game a lot. 🤔
I get the appeal, though. Discovering new people doesn’t work that well *inside of twtxt*. You need external tools for that.

@jmjl I'm not quite sure I follow your train of thought here? How does this solve what I see as two problems? a) central registries and b) which registry do you register to? and really c) which registry do clients uses to find other feeds?

@movq I think subscribing to the tweets endpoint is a better idea, as accessing the users endpoint can be done easily if wanted, and would be pretty easy to make a short script to subscribe to all users from the registry. So parsing the tweets endpoint (could be the mentions endpoint if wanted, any endpoint that uses the format as the tweets endpoint would be valid) and adding another parameter to that specific follow, (maybe a special 'registry' user, (I think it should check if the user starts with registry, to be able to have multiple registries), and then jenny would just check the registry and handle the messages using the data in those endpoints, changing the user and twtxt url acordingly.
@prologic I guess you could create a registry of your feeds, so that when someone starts following you, it'll be added to the registry. So you can get pings or whatever you want, it doesn't have to be a centralized registry if it's yours.

registries are kind of complicated. Which registry do you register your feed to? 🤔

@prologic This looks nice! Why's there a barbed wire fence through the creek? And on top it does look like an electric fence, doesn't it? Just to separate the camp grounds? Weird!
@prologic Yes, I agree – so some extent. 😅 Registries (_or twtxt.net, for that matter_) serve the purpose of being a tool for discovering feeds.
