and @david@daiwei.me your rename shipped 🙌 it’s “Generate recovery code” now (you were right — mints a fresh one each press), + it asks before replacing an existing code so you don’t nuke the one you saved 😅

quick correction on that cleanup timing 🙏 it’s not 28 days. nothing gets deleted for the first 30 days at all (observe-only), and after that only setups unused for ~6 months that also never saved a recovery code. saved a code = safe forever 👍

I will be monitoring the server logs for the next ~28 days, after that orphaned Namespaces will start to get cleaned up, especially ones that have never bothered to care about recovery.

Please open the app and you should be prompted to save your recovery code for your device. This basically is all of your settings, follows, etc in the app itself. This is synced to the Origin everytime you make a change, and also stored on-device. This is what makes it possible to sync your setting across services, move to another device, etc.

Please save a copy of the recovery code somewhere. This is only your only way to recover your settings.

Thank you 🙏

Posting the review and plan here for posterity as it is related to this thread: https://canvas.mills.io/a/6QVGjzRW

The PR(s) as-is will likely not go ahead I’m afraid. More work to be done, but this is basically all about the “Recovery” story and how to anchor and notion of an “account” without well umm an account 🤣

In-reply-to » @ponderpoints Welcome to Yarn.social 👋 Interesting video, I actually watched it all the way through, riverting stuff really and quite well put together. The idea of "subjective experience" is a rather complicated thing to describe and you're right, how do we even know we have them? 🤔

@david@daiwei.me Ma too 🤣

Ahh yes! Please do upgrade your twtd instance. Few things changed, many bugs fixed there too.

@david@daiwei.me It’s truly mind-boggling. All the hand full of episodes I’ve seen so far on this channel are amazing. Totally worth tuning in. I have to catch up a lot. :-)

the only reason twtd has and records a followers.json is because that’s where your feed is hosted from and where the UA discover occurs

the correct fix for what you observed is a recovery token to re-sync settings from the sync API

I should really fix this damn bug where new replies to read replies to unknown conversation roots are not showing up in tt. I run into this bug almost daily for weeks now.

In-reply-to » Das jüngste Posting im Shell und Programmieren-Forum bei ubuntuusers.de ist jetzt 1.5 Monate alt. 😢

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ich war nie im Ubuntuusersforum unterwegs. Aber zu Delphizeiten damals im „Planet Quellcodes“-Forum aktiv, das es längst nicht mehr gibt. Ich schätze, die Hochzeiten der Foren sind einfach rum. Heutzutage ist einmal sehr viel mehr Wissen andersweitig zugänglich und dann sind vermutlich die allermeisten Leute auch einfach auf Soziale-Medien-Plattformen unterwegs. Oder werden die eigenen Projekte auf dem eigenen Blog und dergleichen vorgestellt.

Dann gab’s auch (zumindest gefühlt) eine Zeit, in der man einfach keine sinnvollen Antworten mehr in Foren bekam. So kam das mir jedenfalls vor. Ist schon eine ganze Weile her, aber ich kann mich noch dunkel erinnern, dass ich bei Forensuchtreffern häufig auf Reaktionen à la „such doch selber“ stieß. Oder einfach zuhauf komplett falsche Antworten vorgeschlagen wurden. Ich hab mir dann angewöhnt, Forenbeiträge komplett zu ignorieren.

Einige Foren haben auch noch damit angefangen, anonyme Zugriffe zu unterbinden oder zumindest einzuschränken. Das half im Rückblick natürlich auch nicht, dieses Medium attraktiv zu machen.

@david@daiwei.me Right now, tt’s theme is baked into the binary. I have to edit the ui/styles.go and recompile. Luckily, this almost takes no time. But my todo list already includes a bullet point to make this customizable via the configuration file. :-)

@david@daiwei.me Ha, I just noticed that I changed Newsboat’s defaults. Right from the factory, new items are just bold, while read ones aren’t. No different colors, white on black. Focused items are bold yellow on blue. No matter the read status. I think that’s why I started to play with the config to differentiate them. It’s been so long ago that I didn’t know anymore I even messed with that.

And yes, you’re right, the red on black is borderline readable. Also, my white on green focus is rather silly. But I’m sooo used to it, I don’t realize how bad the contrast is. To be fair, I don’t spend a lot of time in the lists. Aha, there are new articles, Enter to hit the artice view, read it, press n to immediately jump to the next unread article, rince and repeat, finally I’m back in the article list view.

The first thing that came out of my mouth this morning was: “I don’t feel like I want to go to the beach. Sue me!”

Well, yes! It IS one of those days.
