@marado @abucci I agree with you both, I'm jut saying that I have no faith in governments anymore. At least in our country, Australia, with a two-party system, they are basically just corrupt as fuck, and controlled by big oil (BHP, RIO) and big media (New Corp) 😢 Most (_besides maybe the banking regulators?_) are spineless 😢_

@johano Yes yes there is! We developed the Sync API and yarnc sync command-line tool for this reason 👌 (_something I always wanted to have, for this very reason, for backups, etc_). @marado myself and a few others also use this 👌 Usage is simple:


$ yarnc -u https://twtxt.net login
$ yarnc sync twtxt.txt

@thecanine For me it's a bit like software really. Back in the 'old days, people used to value software, they'd pay money for good software. Nowadays, people don't. THey are happy to either pay a subscription fee or pay $0 for a service that erodes their privacy/security and shoves ads in their face with data collected on them and sold to the company's _actual_ customers (not you).

@nwu1dm Also if you chose to host your own feed (you're welcome to keep using my pod, it's there for use by all!), one thing to keep in mind as you either pick a client, figure out how to host your feed, etc is the HTTP User-Agent header that many clients will use to tell you they have fetched your feed. This is an important discovery aspect of Twtxt and we extended this as well to support multi-user pods like yarnd.

See: https://dev.twtxt.net/doc/useragentextension.html

At a bare minimum, you basically need to parse your web server access logs. There is a tool that @lyse wrote called useragent that helps with this.

@nwu1dm In order for you to find others to follow and they to follow you, I'd recommend using the search.twtxt.net search engine. As you've already found your way to my pod (a multi-user client with a Web App, API and Mobile App) you're already being followed by a few in the small but growing community 😅 -- Find folks is well hard in a true "decentralised" ecosystem. But we're here 😅 The best way to build your "network" is by interesting with others, you will find over time your network of followers will grow and change over time and what you follow will also 👌

feeds.twtxt.net is also a good course of "external feeds" (many of which are 1-way mirrors of Mastodon users or RSS feeds of websites, news, etc).

@nwu1dm I _think_ we're talking about different things. If by "disaster" you mean reading your twtxt.txt (feed) file, then yes, you need to have a "decent" client. There are a few around, not just yarnd.

That being said, you can and are free to create your own client however you wish. jenny for example (which you can find on the landing page at https://yarn.social) treats every Twt as an Email. And then you can use something like mutt to navigate your feeds you follow, replies and your "timeline".

Does this make sense? -- I _actually_ thought you were referring to some scalability problem, but I don't think you were, you were talking about the UX? Today the best clients that exist are the ones that are listed on Yarn.social. If someone comes up with another client that's just as compelling (good), we'll be sure to list it there ! 👌
