Speaking of twtxt followers etc, @prologic, is there a recommended location for your twtxt.txt? I've noticed some people using ~/.well-known/ but whatever it is, having a recommended location would help autodiscovery, and having a recommended place for those you're following would help likewise.~
@prologic just a heads up, I'm getting 522 errors from twtxt.net. I have a lot of trouble with CloudFlare where I live, so I use a proxy, which gives me slightly less but still regular errors. CloudFlare is the bane of my online existence, and I know I'm not the only one. Are there sensitivity settings you could turn down to allow reliable retrieval of twtxt.net tweets?
@prologic Thanks for approving my pull request to jointwt/we-are-twtxt, I'm a dunce tho and added myself to the wrong list. That has been corrected, apologies for the mixup.
Just found this list of twtxt users: http://twtxt.xyz - love initiatives like this! You can add yourself too. Wish it automatically dropped feeds that 404 tho, and the timeline appears quite out of date.
@adi Thanks for the kind words and offer! I'm actually already using an internal static site generator and twtxt parser, it's just a matter of figuring out how best to link it all up. mkws.sh looks like a cool project tho, love the posix/minimal aesthetic.
@darch btw, loving your site too! I've been following some of the xxiivv peeps for a while now, and seeing you on there too encouraged me to finally make a pull request and apply. Thank you for the inspiration!
@darch I'm already generating the twtxt page of my site automatically with my static site generator + twtxt parser, but doing this with every tweet would add a huge delay. It's mostly a timing issue, and figuring out if I want twtxt tweets to update the 'last updated' status of my site etc. Minor details :)
@darch Thanks for the kind words and feedback! Have fixed the link.
@prologic I'm playing with the idea of using txtnish and my existing twtxt parser, want to keep things light-weight
My next job is to settle on a twtxt client so I can start engaging properly. Thanks to anyone who is following along!
@prologic Hiya! Apologies, still getting the hang of this. Thank you for your work on twtxt!
How have I only just discovered twtxt?
