If there are no obvious objections, I will write this up soonβ’ -- One thing to note however is there are only two types at the moment and I intend to add a set of enums to the go.yarn.social/types Go package -- rss and bot.
This means users generally don't have to _actually_ do anything at all, only if they author an automated feed (by some other means) or construct other automated feeds whose real source is RSS/Atom (by other other means).

FYI: I'm going to introduce a new Metadata field spec, probably under a new section like "Optional Fields". A field called type that helps to "categorise" feeds as one of a few (small number) of "Feed Types". For example:
# type = <type>
Where currently <type> is one of:
- bot -- An automated feed or a bot
- rss -- An Atom/RSS feed such as those from feeds.twtxt.net
Thoughts? π€ This helps me do a couple of things:
- Remove the "hard-coded" feeds.twtxt.net from the yarnd codebase as a way to filter them out of the "Discover" view.
- Index feeds appropriately so you can search for different types of feeds (e.g: excluding automated or rss feeds, just real users)

Views of broken feeds, @lyse I missed you on IRC on #yarn.social -- I guess you went to bed. But I had a look at what you've done, this is brilliant π Do you think you could work on this some more and make a PR of it? I'd also like to have something like this at some point for yarnd itself too so operators can manually clean up broken/dead feeds as well. Mine has particularly become messy over time π

Poor Mark Zuckerberg -- You gotta feel a _wee_ bit sorry for the guy, he started out building something to help university students find each other on a campus, then turned that into a company, couldn't figure out how to "monetise" it until some clever person came along (Sheryl?) and suggested Facebookβ’ run ads. Then the company set the trend for maliciously stealing all of our data, spying on us and selling our souls to the proverbial devils (advertisers). Now Mark has punted on this so-called "Metaverse" and it isn't going very well π
(Metaverse isn't even in any dictionary, so my spell checker _thinks_ its mis-spelled π€£)

@lyse I'm not entirely sure what you mean now π€£ yarns is crawling the entire Yarn/Twtxt space.
yarnd will only (soon) index what it ingests based on the users and feeds being fetched .

@eaplmx Is right. The fuzzy search is using a Levenstein distance so this is how it works, and I've only set it to 1 π

@mckinley You'd probably make the most use of it right now, so if you could build it and give feedback that would be awesome π I _might_ split the code out if there's enough interest in it, which would make the binary a bit smaller π

@darch Can I ask why we'd want to split our the index into 3 different parts? This would involve creating 3 separate indexes and creating quite a bit of complexity with the cache and feed investor.
