“I'm so embarrassed. I wish everybody else was dead.”

Finally lawn is mowed—well, the one at the front, the wild forest in the back will have to wait a bit longer. I haven’t clocked my 10,000 steps today, but what I didn’t walking, I did through full body “exercise”. Will call it a day. 😅

In-reply-to » @kate @eldersnake @abucci -- I've already spoken to @xuu on IRC about this, but the new SqliteCache backend I'm working on here, what are your thoughts regarding mgirations from old MemoryCache (which is now gone in the codebase in this branch). Do you care to migrate at all, or just let the pod re-fetch all feeds? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net give it some time. Twtxt is very asynchronous, and travels at the speed of mules. It might take a while to reach the intended destination. 😅

In-reply-to » @thecanine I mean I can restore whatever anyone likes, the problem is the last backup I took was 4 months ago 😭 So I decided to start over (from scratch). Just let me know what you want and I'll do it! I used the 4-month old backup to restore your account (by hand) and avatar at least 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net “Indiana, let it go” 😂

In-reply-to » @kat I think it happens if you don't follow them. Replies used to be broken if so, but not sure if @prologic ever fixed that. I used not to follow him, so that he would see the broken mentions, and feel shame (he didn't, he is shameless! LOL), but ever since the re-creation of my account I just decided to follow, so I don't know if the issue is fixed or not.

Hahahaha! It is, doesnm is unmentionable!

I know mentioning @xuu@txt.sour.isdoesnm.p.psf.lt was broken too. Maybe still is? We’ll see.

In-reply-to » I am not interested at all. If I want to interact/socialise/whatever on the Fediverse (which I do), I simply use it. I would like to keep twtxt separate.

Adding to this, we already tried. It didn’t go too well. Slightly related—because it is a third party “integration”—I might be a “smaller group” member, but I don’t care much about one-way feeds (mostly RSS from blogs, news articles, etc.) either.

@prologic@twtxt.net, from IRC:

  1. Saving preferences is failing. Specifically trying to save “Open Links” on the same window. For sure it isn’t happening. Check errors on browser’s console.
  2. Search results pagination is broken. Search for “twtxt.net” and see it. Also, picking oldest/newest makes no difference on that search query.

In-reply-to » Wait! What's going on?! 🧐

@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.
  • Alternative fediverse software suggestions:
    • kat suggests gotosocial as a lightweight alternative to Mastodon.
    • movq agrees, and also mentions snac as a potential option.
  • movq’s change of heart:
    • 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.

In-reply-to » @prologic We can't agree on this idea because that makes things even more complicated than it already is today. The beauty of twtxt is, you put one file on your server, done. One. Not five million. Granted, there might be archive feeds, so it might be already a bit more, but still faaaaaaar less than one file per message.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org deeply honored to be used as an example, when illustrating things that will break! :-D <3
