@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com Did you by change edit or otherwise delete the Twt you replied to (2nd last in your feed) with the reply/thread id lleeypvkzbw2? That Twt was never ingested by twtxt.net (and likely the search engine) so umm hmmm threading breaks 🤣

@javivf@adn.org.es Very cool! 😎

@javivf@adn.org.es Heh! 😏 I don’t get it haha, but I just saw your post about supporting the v2 Hash ext, nice! 👍

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com LOL All god! I just announced it just now 🤣

@javivf@adn.org.es Not really what? 🤔

Hello everyone ! 👋 Behold I bring you (after many years) the launch of the Twtxt App 😅 – Ye, this is a Desktop and Mobile app built as a Progressive Web App (PWA) using a little framework (Swag) I put together iafter some experiments @xuu@txt.sour.is and I did in Go and HTMX and Service Workers.

The App is offline-first and supports installing to Desktop and Mobile (add to Home screen) and supports a number of publishing backends, including Yarn.social’s yarnd Pod, Github, Codeberg/Gitea, and a little tiny twtd Twtxt server (See: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/twtd).

Please try it out, no need for any account(s) or such, works with your existing feed(s) (as long as the publishing backends work well enough for you!). Please give me feedback! 🙏

Also, did you know the Twtxt Search Engine is back? 🎉

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com You mean the one I haven’t quite announced yet? https://twtxt.app ? 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Good! 👍

That’s pretty neat, wish more would adopt that approach, because more often than not one is left stumped on which one is the selected one. As @movq@www.uninformativ.de wrote, those brackets are a lifesaver.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh, yes. The brackets help a great deal.

After updating to tview 0.42.0, I also sadly noticed, that the tview.Modal now clears the background and doesn’t simply draw over the already present widget. So, I decided to write my own Dialog widget. This endeavor lead me down the path to actually bring back a custom Button implementation, too. When the button is focused, it surrounds the button text with [ and ]. When not in focus, the brackets are removed. Much better than before (https://twtxt.net/conv/qx3vz4a):

I also use the same buttons in the compose view, too.

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com I’m obviously Aussie, but happy 4th July to you too! 🎉

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com LOL You can Email me, hit me up on Signal, orc IRC. Take ya pick I’m around 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net 😂 Noob question, do we just do this out in the open? I can also send you an aliased email to take the conversation private.

@fastidious@tilde.town Done and done ✅ Should get an “Upgrade” banner and button soon™

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Found it and fixed it! 🎉 The crawler’s discovery spider was fetching every feed a second time, without any conditional headers (plus a couple of other politeness bugs: redirected feed URLs never stored their cache validators, and there was no floor between re-fetches). Now every feed is fetched at most once per crawl, always with If-Modified-Since / If-None-Match, and never more than once per 15m no matter what. Just deployed — please keep an eye on your access logs and let me know if you still see anything impolite from the crawler 🙏

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I believe this is fixed now 🤞

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks! I’ll look into that! Could be a bug in the crawler.

@bender@twtxt.net Thanks, mate!

On the back of the bench, the badge says: “Gestiftet Verein berg hohenstaufen Göppingen 2013”. I read that as the Mt. Hohenstaufen club donated the bench itself: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2026-07-03/69.jpg

On the front of the bench, the badge says: “Gestiftet von Hildegard Schuster, Gesellschafterin der Schwarz-Gruppe, Firma Wackler”. The bronze lady was donated by a shareholder of the Schwarz group, specifically the local Wackler trucking and logistics company.

The book itself reads: “Zur Erinnerung an Ralph Kobza” It’s in memory of the sales manager of the art foundry next town that created also this statue. My mate took this photo: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2026-07-03/71.jpg

@prologic@twtxt.net That’s cool to hear!

Looking at my access logs, something seems to be off, though:

@balloonfu-sen@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Appreicate it 👍

@prologic@twtxt.net I think it’s probably the https://girlonthemoon.xyz/ publisher, I contacted Mastodon and email and contacted them. Since that Mastodon was also Kat , it must be the right contact.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de It sure feels like the focus is heavily shifted to the average Joe and the power users are left standing.

@balloonfu-sen@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh sorry you are right! The pod you’re on is managed by @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I believe!

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m just registering and using yarn, I haven’t built it. But maybe I could build yarnd on my server.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Welcome to the wild west!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I agree and am very happy about how it went for me back then. Having said that, I still admire @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz’s persistence and strong will to get into it. I feel that a lot of young folks give up way too quickly.

@balloonfu-sen@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Do you mind git pull && make build and updating your yarnd instance so it’s in-line with the new Hash v2 spec 🙏

@balloonfu-sen@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Not difficult, I’m just the target of much spam and bots 😢

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com twtxt.net is now difficult to register, so you can register yarn instead: https://yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz/

@balloonfu-sen@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz 👍

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com I reflected on your nick change: https://balloon.oldcities.org/twtxt-active-users.txt

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com by asking me nicely 🤣 Which you just did! If you either provide me a desired username and password and secure medium to give this to you I can do that easily, or alternative a desired username and email address (never stored, only hashed), after which you can “Reset password”.

I intentionally post from this account. I have created a Japanese explanation page for twtxt: https://balloon-jp.vercel.app/twtxt/

@prologic@twtxt.net Thanks for the heads up! I fixed my nick and corrected my reply. I’m still learning lol. I still need to get setup with a client, I’m using my timeline at the moment, but that’s finicky due to CORS in the browser. By chance do you know how I would go about signing up with twtxt.net?

Hey folks 👋 Today I announce the re-release of the Twtxt Search Engine now live and running and actively re-crawling and re-indexing. 🎉 Please report bugs or any useability issues to me! 🙏 #Twtxt #Search

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com’s Arcade@gabesarcade.com You will want to either build a client or use one of the ones listed here – Either way you choose! 👌 I just noticed as well in this Twt I’m replying to (threading is a thing™) that you @-mentioned@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net incorrectly 😅

<@bender https://twtxt.net/user/bender/twtxt.txt> Thanks for the warm welcome! I don’t actually have a twtxt client setup yet, but you showed up in the timeline on my site: https://gabesarcade.com/?timeline - which is kind blowing my mind right now.
