I'm going to stop putting things off, starting tomorrow.

In-reply-to » @kat I don’t do a lot of CSS and tried to use flexboxes recently, couldn’t find a great explanation. I somehow managed to get the desired effect, but am I using them correctly? Who knows.

Anywhere I can have a look. I do CSS on the daily, and am a big fan of flexbox. It’s a real good spec once you use it often and get familiar with it.

In-reply-to » Hey, @ I know. Just wondering the kind of apps or software and how you all stay up to date in conversations. Is it through webmentions?

I wrote it by hand, so it’s probably my bad. Still getting familair, also.. it would be nice if I could implement into this client to autocomplete a direct [at] nickname into a twtxt format.

In-reply-to » @codebuzz I have some shell scripts that handle some of the log formatting details, but I mostly write my mesages by hand. Lately I've been browsing twtxt.net since they aggregate most of the known network. I have a couple of demo aggregators sitting around, but I'm in the middle of some infra rebuilds so a lot of my services are offline rn. They're both built on a simple social graph analysis that extracts urls for your direct follows the follows listed on each of those feeds (friend-of-a-friend replication). certain formatting operations are awkward with my setup, so I may write an app of some kind in the future. likely gemini-based, but I have a number of projects ahead of that one in the queue.

Thats quite good. I’m just thinking of how to keep things simple without needing databases (as a client app), for now it uses cache.. Would be great if a follower would have an AP-layerI over a twtxt and just fetch from the most recent timestamp known in my cache.

In-reply-to » Feels like my days of browsing YouTube for content are numbered. It's only a matter of time before YouTube refuses to load for any browser with an ad blocker.

Maybe. If, I would miss some content they have, but a lot of it I won’t. I am good with Rumble, Bitchute and alternatives. If they do, views will go down too, creators might feel the pain and double up on alternatives.

Well, having added more accounts, I have noticed aggregating (+/- 15min refresh, and caching afterwards) is still a hefty proces. Something I am pondering on how to do that one better.

Ehm.. you are now asking above my paygrade 🤣 I really don’t know. Haven’t look into webmentions, let alone how it is implemented in Timeline. What happened?

In-reply-to » So I've flattened my work and private email inboxes to single inbox folders and I don't even know anymore what I was thinking before trying frantically to organise everything in sub folders. Labels and search filters are the way forward.

Wouldn’t you rather have work and private seperated? Any thought behind this decission? I like tags, like Gmail does it. I still think mail needs a big rethink. It’s too prominent in life, to be this archaic.

In-reply-to » So I am really curious, now that I am building upon @sorenpeter's Timeline app, how other users write/add their twtxt, and how you follow conversations. Comment svp!

In-reply-to » 👋 FYI: I've put in place 301 Moved Permanently redirect(s) for https://dev.twtxt.net/ and all relevant pages to the new domain https://twtxt.dev 👌

Nice. Will this be the place to slowly build a better documentation and explaining some of the considerations for people who use and/or start using twtxt?

We cannot bulletproof it, no matter which solution we use. If somethings changes, most likely something breaks. However a Nick+Timestamp is fairly unique hash, even if someone for whatever reason had the same nick. For display nick@url would make that unique and recognizable again.

Well, as for a new UUID it’s a thought to combine the timestamp+username or timestamp+url to create a unique id. In this scenario I think the first would probably be favourable. This way if someone decides to use a different url (most likely they will stick to their nickname) UUID’s will still hold up.

Adding to that, we could implement a version variable in the meta, adapt code to either read the old or new format UUID, so older threads won’t break.

In-reply-to » Simplified twtxt - I want to suggest some dogmas or commandments for twtxt, from where we can work our way back to how to implement different feature like replies/treads:

Well I have been working on an update of Timeline, mainly improving speed. Getting a multiple of feeds can really become a big fetch. So I would advocate for ideas to maintain performance.

Regardings your points:

  1. Agreed, but at the moment date+txt creates the unique timestamp
  2. Preferably newest twt as the last line, will make for more structure.
