In-reply-to » @movq would it be possible to trim the subject to, say, 100 or 140 characters? Just the subject.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de

If Subject contains the full twt, then you can skim over conversations just by reading those lines in mutt’s index pager

Yes, I do the same, true.

So I decided: Okay, let’s have mutt do it.

And Mutt does it well. I agree it was/is a good idea.

The subject lines are already “compressed”

I noticed, yes.

I am not sure why I asked to begin with; in retrospect, in was a silly request. Perhaps the OCD in me got triggered while viewing rich headers, on a specific twt, when I saw the huge subject line that is, otherwise, always hidden.

Anyway, don’t mind me, move along. 😂

Just like your highschool girlfriend in Afghanistan “doesn’t need saving”, right? I think it is a language issue you are having, as English isn’t your mother tongue.

QAnon followers are cultist nuts. Some of them wanting out are finding that it is a hard thing to do (did you read the article?). Saying that “they don’t need to escape” is a silly thing to say, at the very least. To me, it just doesn’t make sense.

society walks into the eschaton with they eyes closed. we are high, we are drunk, we are sober. we do not see the signs. we cannot see the signs. stop! i fear these is no U-turn and this road that ends because we cannot read the signs. we gotta turn this shit around and we gotta read the signs. we must read the signs.

Many are very upset about the return of RMS, and how that could be seen to legitimise his views. I knew nothing about his views, really, controversial or otherwise. I’m currently correcting that. I do like how he’s acknowledged that his views on certain controversial subjects has changed since 2013; an admission that he was wrong. I guess an important question is whether his new views on said subjects align with the current moral standard. More reading required…

In-reply-to » @xuu Btw... I noticed your pod has some changed I'm not familiar with, for example you seem to have added metadata to the top of feeds. Can you enumerate the improvements/changes you've made and possibly let's discuss contributing them back upstream? :D

@prologic@twtxt.net the meta info on the top I added manually. it’s following what I have seen from some other twtxt feeds. the new parser will read them.

In-reply-to » I just built a poc search engine / crawler for Twtxt. I managed to crawl this pod (twtxt.net) and a couple of others (sorry @etux and @xuu I used your pods in the tests too!). So far so good. I might keep going with this and see what happens 😀

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah it reads a seed file. I’m using mine. it scans for any mention links and then scans them recursively. it reads from http/s or gopher. i don’t have much of a db yet.. it just writes to disk the feed and checks modified dates.. but I will add a db that has hashs/mentions/subjects and such.

In-reply-to » Anyone here good with Go and feel like helping me build our a "Direct Messages" feature? I was going to pay someone on Upwork to do this, but I've received very few applicants (just one!) and they aren't that good (stock standard crappy Bootstrap experience and no evidence of any experience with Go).

i am guessing you are using some form of webmention to notify the target of the DM? which loads it into a store for the user to read?
