I got some assembly for you: https://images.gatesnotes.com/12514eb8-7b51-008e-41a9-512542cf683b/34d561c8-cf5c-4e69-af47-3782ea11482e/Original-Microsoft-Source-Code.pdf
@prologic@twtxt.net you mean, “I’ll ix this oon 😂” ™
@prologic@twtxt.net Gemini has an answer for you:
This is a conversation thread from a twtxt network, detailing a user’s (movq) frustration with the Mastodon “export data” feature and their consideration of self-hosting a fediverse alternative. Here’s a summary:
- movq’s initial issue:
- movq is concerned about the volatility of their data on their current Mastodon instance due to a broken “export data” feature.
- They contacted the admins, but the issue remains unresolved.
- This led them to contemplate self-hosting.
- movq is concerned about the volatility of their data on their current Mastodon instance due to a broken “export data” feature.
- Alternative fediverse software suggestions:
- kat suggests gotosocial as a lightweight alternative to Mastodon.
- movq agrees, and also mentions snac as a potential option.
- kat suggests gotosocial as a lightweight alternative to Mastodon.
- movq’s change of heart:
- movq ultimately decides that self-hosting any fediverse software, besides twtxt, is too much effort.
- movq ultimately decides that self-hosting any fediverse software, besides twtxt, is too much effort.
- Resolution and compromise:
- The Mastodon admins attribute the export failure to the size of movq’s account.
- movq decides to set their Mastodon account to auto-delete posts after approximately 180 days to manage data size.
- Movq also mentions that they use auto-expiring links on twtxt to reduce data storage.
- The Mastodon admins attribute the export failure to the size of movq’s account.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org deeply honored to be used as an example, when illustrating things that will break! :-D <3
() @movq@www.uninformativ.de / @ well, I was wrong. It doesn’t merit congratulations. Boy, that 2032 asteroid is starting to look quite appealing…
I heard that congratulations to Germany are in order, is that right? If so, congratulations!
So, are we muting/blocking the “DMers”? I am starting a list, and I am checking it twice.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org call the @ call the @yarn_police@twtxt.net! 😂
Yes, you did something quite weird with yours.
@andros@twtxt.andros.dev it seems your GtS has issues:
Warning! It looks like trusted-proxies is not set correctly in this instance’s configuration. This may cause rate-limiting issues and, by extension, federation issues.
If you are the instance admin, you should fix this by adding 10.66.66.1/32 to your trusted-proxies.
@twtxt.net@twtxt.net right. I don’t follow you. I will restart following you once Yarn has fixed this problem. :-P
@twtxt.net@twtxt.net Octal 31 = Decimal 25
Break[ing] it!
twtxt.txt, following your recommendation, there could be many "twtxt" nicks. 😀
@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt the logic that keeps on growing! :-D
example.com/x/bananas/yo.txt, and the feed has no nick. What is the nick?
I mean, since most feeds are named twtxt.txt, following your recommendation, there could be many “twtxt” nicks. 😀
@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt I see problems with that, that do not exist on my approach. You could see, example.com/x/bananas/yo.txt, and the feed has no nick. What is the nick?
Or using the same twt hash method, but only for the URL, to generate the nick, if it doesn’t exist, like so, @5vxo4ia@twtxt.net
Wow, GtS keeps getting better! Re: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/admin/domain_permission_subscriptions/#fun-stuff-to-do-with-domain-permission-subscriptions
For later reading: https://macos-defaults.com/. What brought me there was https://macos-defaults.com/dock/autohide-delay.html
“we are invading the humble twtxt/yarn network”
LOL. @prologic@twtxt.net loves it. He wants it to grow a little. He told me. More than once!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I am sure they would have been just fine. Should we assume your main driving machine is on solid state?
@rrraksamam@twtxt.net LOL. Crypto rubbish backed? 🤦♂️
@prologic@twtxt.net, do you run a Minecraft server for your children? If so, which one?
@prologic@twtxt.net “therealprologic”? Really? 🤦♂️😅
GoToSocial snapshot has gained “editing statuses” capabilities (and the ability to see the update trail as well). That was one of the things I wanted to most to be implemented. Actually, that sits at the top of my wish list. Next is push notifications.
Grocery shopping in the day of Christmas Eve is nuts, and wife is dragging me through it. 😩
@prologic@twtxt.net, do you use zsh on macOS, or do you change it to, say, bash?
@prologic@twtxt.net how does one signs up? I am sure you haven’t advertised the service yet, right?
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com will all those run on his hardware? I don’t think @movq@www.uninformativ.de’s problem is the software, it is that his hardware has gotten too old. :-D
Grab this one and enhance it, @prologic@twtxt.net?
Someone in the neighbourhood is ready!

If there a name for those of us who dislike AI generated imagery, or for the dislike of AI generated imagery in general? A composite German word would do! :-)
@prologic@twtxt.net to interact with locally running LLM, which software are you using? LM Studio, or Ollama, or…?
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I don’t see a single reply on that feed. Looks like a one way kind of feed to me, but I might be wrong.
If John Mastodon feats are spoken about on Mastodon, Marie Twtxt is our heroine!
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org excellent way to poke a sleepy (not sleeping) feed! :-)
I don’t think calling the various PHP files making up “Timeline” a “Yarn pod” is accurate.
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com icons at the top are badly organised while on mobile. About the speed, that’s using a shoddy PHP code, it would be slow even when running in a quantum computer. :’-D
@xuu@txt.sour.is 12345?
@prologic@twtxt.net yes, web content indeed is/has become. I will say a little bit of both. Trying my best not to lose faith in humanity. :‘-/
“Designed by Apple in California” stopped being sold in 2019. It sold for $199, and $299 (two sizes). Check the eBay pricing on that link, if you want to know the selling price today.
Portion of the modified Twitter TOS that goes into effect today (it’s on right now), as summarised (ironically) by Google’s Gemini:
“In simpler terms, this means that when you share your content (like text, images, or videos) on the service, you’re giving the company permission to use it in various ways. They can copy, modify, distribute, and even use it to train their AI models. This includes sharing your content with others and using it on other platforms. You won’t be paid for this, but using the service itself is considered enough compensation.”
@prologic@twtxt.net I recommend its Wikipedia entry is edited then, if you are completely certain.
“Bluesky is a decentralized microblogging social media service primarily operated by Bluesky Social, PBC.”
That I know of, you can run the PDS, and pretty much everything else.
@prologic@twtxt.net, the new line character. \u2028, is no longer being rendered right on the description metadata.
I have noticed that Yarn (here) will not take some emoji. At least, will not take some under iOS.
Alright. I am—actually, “we” are—out for the next couple of days. Do me a favour and stick some needles on that orange voodoo doll you got—make one, if you don’t!
@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt right, jenny isn’t the problem, it’s your platform of choice. The fetching of archives doesn’t happen all time (once only, right @movq?), but yes, depending on the amount of feeds you follow that first time might take a while.
