@bender I _think_ it comes down to one of the principles Yarn.social was founded on, which is to say, users should have choices and what they "see" is not driven by "algorithms". The "Discover" view in and of itself has utility/value to others, and is otherwise just a "view" of a pod's cache, but I agree with you. It was even getting noisey for me 🤣

@lyse It’s great to see so much “green”. 👌

@mckinley not a problem, but I don't want to see it. When I get to see it constantly, without following it, then it becomes a problem. Blogs being echo chambers do not bother. They don't "come to me". :-D
Do you think they still celebrate October fest?
Good Morning everyone! Wishing all of you a productive and Happy Monday!

In other words, there isn't anything _specifically_ wrong with the Twtxt spec (+extensions), but if you for example use a client and server combination that never considered the User-Agent header and check logs or intercept requests for your feed, than you end up missing an important part of the whole flow (unless you are of course deliberating ignoring that, e.g: 1-way feeds, news feeds, etc).

In my opinion, this _can_ all be solved by a "better standard client".

This also just reminds me of the other problems that exist:
- bad mentions.
- knowing whether someone will you've -mentioned will even see your reply at all.

@dfaria Also, I don't really care whether you continue to use my pod or not frankly.
> One more reason not to use https://twtxt.net/
negative comments like this are completely unconstructive and have no basis in merit. If you have issues with the way I administer my pod, speak up, provide alternatives. If you have good technical suggestions for Twtxt/Yarn, we're all ears. We are only trying (or attempt to try) to make things better for all, which as you can appreciate is a hard thing to do.
Next time, please leave your constructive criticisms at home. No-one forces you to use my pod (for free).

@dfaria And btw, even if I block a feed or whole domain, it doesn't stop you from following. it just removes it from the "Discover" view.

Went out in the cold and noticed that taking photos half an hour on top of the drafty summit is not the very best idea. Not suprising that I freeze if there is snow. Gloves would have been actually great, I only wore my beanie. But it was a very good afternoon and evening. Looking at the snowmen, there must have been heaps of snow on the ground earlier this day.
I came across several different birds and two deer. 36-38 shows the same one, one meadow further, another deer jumped across the road. That was cool.
The focus often wanted to do its own thing, unfortunately. 25 shows the flatness of the Kaiserbergsteige (literally "Emperor Mountain Steep Road").

@movq Vobis doesn't ring a bell. I looked them up, but still nope.
Yeah, HDDs aren't the fastest things in the world. :-)
@lyse Goes to show how arcane that system has become. 🥴 I saw in another video today that Microsoft Office used names like PMWord and PMExcel.
There was a time when Vobis (you remember them?) sold PCs with OS/2 pre-installed. Those were the days, man! 😂
> It's already very quick.
That’s because it’s not running on a hard disk but a Compact Flash card. 😅 My Warp 4 box *is* on an HDD and scanning directory trees takes quite some time there. 🫤 Spinning rust is crazy slow.

@movq pfff, your code is “break-proof”! All looking good, so far. 😊
