@prologic I'm not a yarnd user, so it doesn't matter a whole lot to me, but FWIW I'm not especially keen on changing how I format my twts to work around yarnd's quirks.

I wonder if this kind of postprocessing would fit better between composing (via yarnd's UI) and publishing. So, if a yarnd user types 1/4, it could get changed to ¼ in the twtxt.txt file for everyone to see, not just people reading through yarnd. But when I type 1/4, meaning first out of four, as a non-yarnd user, the meaning wouldn't get corrupted. I can always type ¼ directly if that's what I really intend.

(This twt might be easier to understand if you read it without any transformations :-P)

Anyway, again, I'm not a yarnd user, so do what you will, just know you might not be seeing exactly what I meant.

i'm kinda bummed that i haven't had the time/energy to get further into my media infrastructure projects. a federated tiktok with good decentralized storage would be a force to be reckoned with. i don't have to be first though. solving the fundamental problems of decentralized video streaming will make for a better experience anyway. i also have too many projects so i can't get after myself for being a little behind the curve in several areas at once lol
@movq i've wondered the same thing.. dansup can be pretty erratic and i don't really trust the guy. thankfully (at least from my perspective) he's not the only game in town. though i think going UI-first is kind of jumping the gun. the fediverse doesn't really have the infrastructure in place to support video publishing at the scale that a tiktok user might expect. based on some of dansups statements regarding palestine, i'm sure its partially an effort to control what kind of content makes it into fedi's tiktok streams for the first while.
I'm annoyed with python's writexml.

Maybe I should file a bug, but I'm not sure I'm willing to dive into that rabbit whole.

So, instead, I wrote a little rant:

I had an windows98se. Only CD and no PC. Is windows95 better?
The last week I've been playing around with https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI , dang good tool for testing ai models and such. I really like the node based workflow.
And makes it super easy to test any AI model.
Only thing I miss now - is one of those image to video setup's, that's what I'm working on fixing now. So that I can generate images, and then automatically make them into short videos as well.
Fun to play around with.
@prologic I'll try and join next time :) I did not see your reply until now.

@thecanine ahh, Google, what can I say?! It is amazing for me to think I used to have everything on Google, and now I have nothing. I mean, I have kept my Gmail, and Google Voice. The first I don't use, but I have it since beta (was of the few first to be invited to it), so it has a "sentimental" value. The second is my catch-all-spam number.
I attempted to build a small try-square, but my metal working skills totally suck. I tried to flatten the metal blade with a file, but I didn't reach my own goal. It's not perfectly straight. The square is almost 90°, it shifted a wee bit when drilling the holes for the pins. Also, the blade is 0.1mm off of being parallel. I have to try again or simply just buy one.

@sorenpeter I've been using weechat for a while then when I started learning my way around Emacs I switched to Circe ... a couple months later I setup ZNC, rolled with it for some time but wasn't sure if I wanted to stick with it. Now I'm mainly using TheLounge and do find it convenient accessing it from anywhere. but quite honestly, I don't have a preference.

@prologic yeah, sorry about that, I shouldn't have put something like that out there in the fist place. It started as a completely different twit then I got overwhelmed noticing that I may have became the exact same thing I despise the most 🤦

@movq sounds counterproductive. The power of open source is that it benefits from everyone's participation. Why to develop in a close source setting then? Hmm.
Exactly! But you still have to sign up to "their" platform. da fuq?! I smell something fishy here 🤣

That is weird, though:

Why the delay? 🤨

@sorenpeter I run Weechat headless on a VM and mostly connect via mobile or dwsktop. I use the android client or gliwing bear. Work blocks all comms on their always on MitM VPN so I cant in office anymore. So I just use mobile.

@movq I agree. Even if I will not use it, allowing to do similarly to the commercial "service" in a selfhosted, non-algos, non-ad-targeting environment, is the way to go.

@Codebuzz That's what I figure as well, thus my robot.txt looks like that:

IRCCloud is shareware and proprietary :(. Free period only two weeks and after your connection disabled after two hours of inactivity. Maybe Quassel or TheLounge is better?

@sorenpeter I started out with Konversation (KDE IRC client) but then moved to weechat over a decade later or so. I just like the terminal. In both setups I was just online when my computer was running.

Recently, @bender made me finally switch to weechat in a tmux session on my server: tmux new -s irc and then run weechat inside. On my local computer I then simply attach to that session, even got an alias for that: alias irc='ssh -t isobeef tmux attach -t irc' I'm now basically online 24/7 and can skip over the new messages in the backlog by hand when I start my local computer. :-D

I'm very happy with that. Can't imagine ever going back right now. I'm also wondering why it took me all those years to finally make the small step. Happy IRCing!

@slashdot Ugh, do we really need more brainrot, even if it is more open? 😅
This works !
it literally does, but i'll leave it as a mystery for you ponder.
its offline atm, but my usual setup basically makes my xmpp server into a bouncer (biboumi) and my xmpp client just does its normal thing to read the irc backlog as server-side message history.
@bender Yeah I mostly read IRC backlogs on mobile, very rarely talk per se 😅

@sorenpeter I can IRC on mobile, but I choose not too. It is not as easy as when using a desktop computer.
@sorenpeter I use TheLounge. Similar to the one @prologic uses, but self hosted. Always connected.

Nice. Will this be the place to slowly build a better documentation and explaining some of the considerations for people who use and/or start using twtxt?
We cannot bulletproof it, no matter which solution we use. If somethings changes, most likely something breaks. However a Nick+Timestamp is fairly unique hash, even if someone for whatever reason had the same nick. For display nick@url would make that unique and recognizable again.
