TwiXter, Mastodon, FB and some other services usually hide the DMs in another section, so they are not mixed with the public timeline.
I find the DM topic interesting, I even made an indie experiment for a centralized messaging system here https://github.com/eapl-gemugami/owl.
Although, as I've said a few times here, I'm not particularly interested in supporting it on microblogging, as I don't use it that much. In the rare case I've used them, I don't have to manage public and private keys, and finally none of my acquaintances use encrypted email.
Nothing personal against anyone, and although I like to debate and even fight, it's not the case here. This proposal is the only one allowing DMs on twtxt, and if the community wants it, I'll support it, with my personal input, of course.
A good approach I could find with a good compromise between compatibility with current clients and keeping these messages private is 'hiding' the DMs in comments. For example:
# 2025-04-13T11:02:12+02:00 !<dm-echo https://dm-echo.andros.dev/twtxt.txt> U2FsdGVkX1+QmwBNmk9Yu9jvazVRFPS2TGJRGle/BDDzFult6zCtxNhJrV0g+sx0EIKbjL2a9QpCT5C0Z2qWvw==
An example: https://dm-echo.andros.dev/generate/?url=https://twtxt.andros.dev/
#twtxt
todo.txt
and calendar.txt
. I'd even love to see decentralised forms of "plain text" voting too.

🤣 -- I certainly don't think your efforts are wasted at all. I would however like @doesnm.p.psf.lt encourage you to look at the work we've done as a community (_which was also driven out of the Yarn.social / Twtxt community years back_).
1) #europa - têm visão igual ou diferente? Parece que têm linguagem diferente mas na prática defendem o mesmo.
2) #defesa - o que distingue BE e L é que BE acha que não é preciso gastar mais em armas (já temos o suficiente), o L acha que sim (para precaver). L está com medo do que os #EUA podem estar para fazer, BE diz que então não percebe porque é que o Livre quer continuar na #NATO com os EUA lá.
3) #taxtherich - nas suas várias vertentes, ambos dizem sim.
4) #autogestão de empresas - ambos concordam, é preciso de legislação e mecanismos para fazer isto acontecer.
5) PS - O Livre quer é governar à esquerda, com projectos como o de #Livre e #BE. BE o mesmo: não é o PS que tem de ganhar para governar com o PSD, é a esquerda que deve crescer para que o próximo governo esteja a governar à #esquerda.

I'll be honest, I'm a bit tired of the fight around the direct message. Perhaps, we can remove it as an extension and use the alternative @prologic . My suggestion apparently doesn't like to the community. I have no problem with remove it.
Sorry I'm late to the party!

dm-only.txt
, twtxt-dm.txt
or any other name for an alternative file is the most sensible approach. The name could be specified in the metadata.
> @prologic Yes, it is a security hole. All dm-echo messages are readable. I intend it to be a debugging tool. Maybe I can include a warning message. If many of you see that it is a serious problem, I can remove the links.
Só que... ∞ = ∞² = ∞³
4) o mundo a mudar: AD não está a prometer todo a todos como acusa o PS ao dizer que não vamos ter défice nem recessão? Não, nós vamos conseguir fazer tudo o que estamos a prometer incluindo excedente. E se não conseguir, corta onde? Não vai acontecer. Não seria melhor precaver a possibilidade? Nós confiamos nos empresários Portugueses. Os choques fiscais da IL não estão em risco de recessão? Nada disso: se Montenegro confia nos empresários, nós confiamos ainda mais. Mas se o mundo vai entrar em recessão Portugal não entra também? IL diz que não, e fala de propoatas delea que não têm nada a haver.
5) Spinumviva: Montenegro deve algum pedido de desculpa aos Portugueses? Diz que não, deve é trabalhar. Expande falando de coisas que não têm a haver com a pergunta. Teria feito algo de forma diferente? Houve alguma imprudência? Não, eu quero é resolver os problemas do país. Falo antes da pergunta anterior para gastar o tempo aí. E a IL já está esclarecido? Eu teria feito as coisas de modo diferente. Questiona o que acontece se Montenegro ganha e depois há mais questões sobre a Spinumviva...
Jornalista não pede a Montenegro que responda isso, pergunta em vez:
6) Debate com BE: vai Melo ou Montenegro? Vai Melo.
#ptpol #debates #AD #IL
2) Porque é que alguém votaria em IL e não AD? Estabilidade. Mete PS e CH no mesmo saco. Reformismo. Fala de todas as falhas da AD (promessas não cumpridas, são muitas). -interrompe- para falar de saúde.
3) A IL quer acabar com o SNS como o conhecemos. Não. Mas quer. Não, o qie queremos é (descreve acabar com o SNS como o conhecemos). Então AD, e a saúde? Responde sobre impostos. Sim, mas e saúde? A AD não teve um falhanço na saúde, porque há mais pessoas com médico de família. Diz números falsos, é corrigido pelo entrevistador, ele diz não não e muda de conversa. Jornalista insiste que está tudo pior, AD diz que está melhor. Então e a ministra da saúde, continua? Logo falamos de formar governo depois das eleições. IL fala de saúde e impostos a dizer "não cumpriram o que prometeram".
Voltamos ao resto da pergunta 2?

You can’t.
That’s because toddlers don’t understand what an argument is and aren’t interesting in having one.
Toddlers (which includes defensive bureaucrats, bullies, flat earthers, folks committed to a specific agenda and radio talk show hosts) may indicate that they’d like to have an argument, but they’re actually engaging in connection, noise, play acting or a chance to earn status. It can be fun to be in opposition, to harangue or even to use power to change someone’s position.
An argument, though, is an exchange of ideas that ought to surface insight and lead to a conclusion.
If you’re regularly having arguments with well-informed people of goodwill, you will probably ‘lose’ half of them–changing your mind based on what you’ve learned. If you’re not changing your mind, it’s likely you’re not actually having an argument (or you’re hanging out with the wrong people.) While it can be fun to change someone else’s position, it’s also a gift to learn enough to change ours.
The toddler puts on a show of having an argument, but they are holding a tantrum in reserve. If they ‘win’ the argument, no tantrum is needed. If they lose, they can tell themselves that they tried but the other person deserved the tantrum because they didn’t listen.
“Tell me about other strongly-held positions you’ve changed as the result of a discussion like this one…” is a direct way to start a conversation about the argument you’re proposing to have. “What sort of information would make it likely you could see this in a different way?”
It probably doesn’t pay to argue over things we have chosen to believe as part of our identity.2025-04-16T06:15:26.000Z CVE program faces swift end after DHS fails to renew contract

https://seths.blog/2025/04/how-to-win-an-argument-with-a-toddler/
You can’t.
That’s because toddlers don’t understand what an argument is and aren’t interesting in having one.
Toddlers (which includes defensive bureaucrats, bullies, flat earthers, folks committed to a specific agenda and radio talk show hosts) may indicate that they’d like to have an argument, but they’re actually engaging in connection, noise, play acting or a chance to earn status. It can be fun to be in opposition, to harangue or even to use power to change someone’s position.
An argument, though, is an exchange of ideas that ought to surface insight and lead to a conclusion.
If you’re regularly having arguments with well-informed people of goodwill, you will probably ‘lose’ half of them–changing your mind based on what you’ve learned. If you’re not changing your mind, it’s likely you’re not actually having an argument (or you’re hanging out with the wrong people.) While it can be fun to change someone else’s position, it’s also a gift to learn enough to change ours.
The toddler puts on a show of having an argument, but they are holding a tantrum in reserve. If they ‘win’ the argument, no tantrum is needed. If they lose, they can tell themselves that they tried but the other person deserved the tantrum because they didn’t listen.
“Tell me about other strongly-held positions you’ve changed as the result of a discussion like this one…” is a direct way to start a conversation about the argument you’re proposing to have. “What sort of information would make it likely you could see this in a different way?”
It probably doesn’t pay to argue over things we have chosen to believe as part of our identity.
The lack of “public water” in our cities.
Almost no way of washing your hands or going to the toilet or whatever. You can’t even pee in a bush, because a) that’s illegal and b) there are no bushes!
(It’s always been that way, I just never noticed before. 🥴)
The nature of twtxt does not allow us to selectively hide clients. It's a problem not with DM, but with any extension.
@prologic Yes, it is a security hole. All dm-echo messages are readable. I intend it to be a debugging tool. Maybe I can include a warning message. If many of you see that it is a serious problem, I can remove the links.
@xuu It's already much better than Mastodon :P . Maybe we can remove the sender and receiver references with an intermediary register.
!<nick url><encrypted_message>
syntax which is meaningless.
The idea was to help those following the spec in https://twtxt.dev/exts/directmessage.Html, to replicate the steps and validate whether your implementation gives the same result.
BTW, you could add a link to the spec in the echo web.
Mais uma vez aquela nota de que este tendo sido um debate sem ser em sinal aberto, a minha cobertura é diferente.
Rocha e Tavares começaram bem, ainda que o "debate" esta a ser poucochinho, porque o jornalista estava em formato entrevista: uma pergunta para um, uma pergunta diferente para outro.
IL quer usar o investimento em defesa em cibersegurança e coisas que não armas, mas depois já não era bem assim - fiquei sem perceber bem mas deu-me vontade de ir ler o programa para entender.
A meio do debate as coisas ficam mais esclarecedoras: quando Tavares decide responder rebatendo também algo que Rocha tinha dito anteriormemte. O confronto foi o que nos trouxe esclarecimentos.
Tavares sublinhou que a IL tem números mas que as suas contas não batem certo, e assentam em fezadas como certezas.
Rocha sublinhou que Livre tem várias medidas de redução de impostos, mas sem números ou propostas concretas.
Aqui a diferença é que IL não tem como se explicar, enquanto o Tavares disse da proposta do Livre que essas reduções são condicionais e que estão dependentes da existência de crescimento económico, que é incerto.
IL quer ajudar empresas p/ ajudar pessoas, acha q sem crescimento n há modelo de pensões que funcione.
Livre quer certificados p/ bebés, agência p/ IA.
Extra) +1 para equilibrar tempos, só para o PAN: governabilidade. PAN ajudará tanto AD como PS se precisarem? Com a AD é difícil, porque a AD defende uma grande lista de coisas que somos totalmente contra.

1) não tá cá o Luis a trabalhar - Melo não quer falar do assunto, Inês mantém que é cobardia
2) lidar com a incerteza com o futuro - falam de outras coisas. PAN ainda respondeu um bocadito, falando e medidas sobre crise climática
3) habitação - dizer é preciso mais casas é o que tem sido dito, e o problema continua. Como se resolve? PAN: com mais casas (a pergunta é repetida e não é respondida. Melo prefere falar de imigração, jornalista diz que ela quer que ele responda à pergunta. Melo fala de imigração. Depois. Antes não foi possível mas agora em dois anos vai ser tudo diferente. Como? Porque sim. Então mas... "Isso não é conversa" responde Melo.
3a) imigração - Melo diz que o PAN quer portas abertas a todos e é por isso que temos imigrantes a vir sem condições porque não são bem acolhidos. PAN diz que sem imigrantes não temos trabalhadores, por exemplo na construção
4) defesa - O PAN não quer o compromisso com a NATO dos 2%? Como lhes diz isso, que somos muito pequenos? Inês explica porque 2% é errado, mas não responde à pergunta. AD diz que não é gastar, é investir. É mesmo, se nem temos indústria militar? Melo diz "já respondo a isso, mas primeiro..." Quando responde diz: é é, temos 380 empresas nessa área.
