(#6xuvs6a) @sorenpeter@darch.dk I was hoping your script could help solve our pubnix users’
Discovrabilitydilemma, but either I’m doing something wrong or (maybe) we have some PHP module(s) missing. I gave it a try and it returns the twtxt file content as expected when visited directly, yet there’s no logs/log files created. + I’m still not sure why my htaccess redirection doesn’t work x’) … Will keep you posted.

It’s hilarious seeing rats nest like this 🤣
in Vietnam’s Hoi An! 🤣 Thailand has very similar, not sure which is worse 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net How so? I read the article but didn’t get who’s embracing and extending what to extinguish it…
[Update!] My request to join in has finally gotten accepted over on thunix.net like, two days ago! And now, my alter ego @skinshafi@thunix.net can have a Twtxt feed of its own x)
Beautiful shot @movq@www.uninformativ.de 🤩 … I’ve always had a hard time taking pictures in a foggy atmosphere, it never looks as dense as it does IRL. Any tips? 🥹
So, I don’t think there is a way for pubnix users to check who’s pulling their Twtxt feeds. “No access logs (for obvious reasons) so, no visibility on user-agent anouncements for me and no discovrability for you (actually, me)!” xD
Yes it work: 2024-12-01T19:38:35Z twtxt/1.2.3 (+https://eapl.mx/twtxt.txt; @eapl) :D
The .log is just a simple append each request. The idea with the .cvs is to have it tally up how many request there have been from each client as a way to avoid having the log file grow too big. And that you can open the .cvs as a spreadsheet and have an easy overview and filtering options.
Access to those files are closed to the public.
did it work? I tried loading the file from /twtxt.txt, /twtAgent.php and /twtAgent2.php
Also reading the code, I see it creates two files, but I’m not sure which you are using now:
http://darch.dk/twtAgent.log <- 403 Forbidden
and
http://darch.dk/twtAgent.csv <- Not found here
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh man, this is beautiful! We had sunshine all day long. But it was cold, too. When I left the house in the late afternoon, the sun was creating this magical red light. I just hit the right time, all the autumn colors popped out like crazy when I walked down the street. Didn’t bring my camera, though.
I sent a few local tests, could you help me check if you see https://eapl.mx/twtxt.txt in your log file?
If you want more eyes on the agent, you can tell tell me, as I was thinking on something similar to catch those ‘following requests’.
I’ve been using Mastodon too much lately. The constant notifications are becoming too stressful. I really do prefer slow communication, like twtxt. ✌️
@eapl.mx@eapl.mx Yes, the idea is to add User Agent support to #Timeline.
Right now it just adds every request to a growing log file, but I have also been working on a way to analyse it, so it only saves the time of the latest request.
I’m not sure how to make it part of timeline itself, since it requeses that you redirect/rewrite from twtAgent.php to the acctual twtxt.txt
Help with making Timeline send proper User Agents to others would be much appreciated:)
Have fun, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! :-) But I’m out.
So, who’s doing Advent of Code? Had some fun this morning:

And how should we handle spoilers here on twtxt? base64? 😅
@xuu@txt.sour.is That’s cool, I read chapter one and will continue.
@sorenpeter@darch.dk Ah, so you inspired people with something absolutely new to them. That’s cool. :-)

@sorenpeter@darch.dk hey!
I’m watching that now your .txt is pointing to https://darch.dk/twtAgent.php
What are you trying? Catching the Headers as in https://twtxt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/discoverability.html ? (I think it’s a clever idea BTW)
And is it something you plan to add to timeline?

Hello Twtxt!
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org One person had came access it before, but no tried it
@prologic@twtxt.net Just that people thought twtxt sounded cool and maybe want to set it up themself
@sorenpeter@darch.dk Cool! Just curious, did you run into somebody who already heard of twtxt before? Or maybe even tried it.
@eapl.mx@eapl.mx Super to see you got webmentions working too :)
EDIT: A webmention was send to: https://eapl.mx/timeline/webmention (Status: 202)
@johanbove@johanbove.info Thanks, I’m glad you like it.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de There was no time for discussion just after the presentation, but I had a chat with some folks later.
@prologic@twtxt.net My pleasure! glad I could help.
@prologic@twtxt.net Never seen macOS but I believe that’s a yes, just like in the second screenshot. That’s my whole screen zoomed on the cursor’s position and it keeps following.
@prologic@twtxt.net had to get Compiz from the edge/testing repo, but I believe that you can do without it. Xfce’s default Alt+Scroll thing works out of the box.

@prologic@twtxt.net Not sure why Compiz but here… 
@quark@ferengi.one What would happen if I replayed to this twt from the future, when I’m still in it’s relative past? 🤔
@prologic@twtxt.net Trust me, it would’ve made the world a better place.
@sorenpeter@darch.dk Really cool that you did the presentation about Twtxt! Thanks for doing this.
@prologic@twtxt.net Oh! I’d like to see this one too. 3:)
… it even shows @sorenpeter@darch.dk’s article from 2020 in search results 
@prologic@twtxt.net Very nice! Like a castle moat. :-)
This resort, Angsana Lang Co has a big huge canal that goes right around the resort!

@prologic@twtxt.net Cool! Enjoy your vacation!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’ll ask them when I see somebody around next time. :-)
“A minimalist social network powered by plain text files” - my talk about #twtxt from #Piksel24 Festival is now on YouTube
and slides can be found at http://darch.dk/twtxtalk-piksel
And look the wife and I got a welxome message on our bed 🤣 
Safe travels @prologic@twtxt.net have fun!
@prologic@twtxt.net I cannot… believe… It took me a “Single Search Query” to get HOOKED!! 🤩 Bonus: tried it from terminal too and it works just 👌
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Exactly, that’s a really weird “r”. The only thing I can think of is that the wooden letters were cut out on a bandsaw. Whoever made the sign wanted to avoid cutting a hole in an uppercase “R”, because they had no jigsaw on hand. So, they went with the lowercase one.
