@movq Yeah I concur π

This is the primary reason I'm pulling activity pub support out of yarnd. I _may_ (_and it was planned_) still build a completely separate service the abstract away the "push" nature of ActivityPub forcing our usage/interaction of it to be "pull" based. We'll see π€

@jmjl I'm not quite sure I follow your train of thought here? How does this solve what I see as two problems? a) central registries and b) which registry do you register to? and really c) which registry do clients uses to find other feeds?

@eapl.me I'd love to see some of your ideas contributed back to our spec and maybe a new home for the specs too and new website? π I purchased the domain twtxt.dev for this very purpose, it would be nice to move the specs there and build a "developer" centric website for all things Twtxt clients and specs? π€

@jmjl @movq To be honest I see no point in supporting the so-called "Registry" APi. A registry implies a piece of "centralisation" that really feels counter to the point of a decentralised Twtxt ecosystem IMO π There is just simply no value.

Well the experience you describe is one of the reasons I also don't like Mastodon/Activity Pub as it trends towards being "too much" and if everything is pushed at you, you have little choice but to either mute or block at the server level π€£
