@prologic@twtxt.net HAHA! Couldn’t say it better. I started abandoning main stream social media as soon as is it stopped feeling like connecting and sharing with other human beings and became an urge for feeding an algorithm and hoping for it’s blessing to get a glimpse of human interaction It deems worthy of having.

What’s that thing called when everyone on a social media platform (hardly matters which one) all post the same sort of thing. It all sounds oh so wonderful, or all so dramatic, everyone claps and cheers and thumbs up or whatever. What’s that thing called? There’s a term for it hmmm 🧐

In-reply-to » Is Yarn.social dead or just too niche? (uyrrria) 🧐

I think @abucci@anthony.buc.ci and @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no are running snac? I didn’t have a closer look at snac (no intention of running it), but if that is a relatively small daemon (maybe comparable to Yarn?) that gives you access to the whole world of ActivityPub, then, well, yeah 
 That’s tough to beat.

Yes, I am running snac on the same VPS where I run my yarn pod. I heard of it from @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no, so blame him 😏 snac is written in C and is one simple executable, uses very little resources on the server, and stores everything in JSON files (no databases or other integrations; easy to save and migrate your data) . It’s definitely like yarn in that respect.

I haven’t been around yarn much lately. Part of that is that I’ve been very busy at work and home and only have a limited time to spend goofing off on a social network. Part of it is that I’m finding snac very useful: I’ve connected with friends I’d previously lost touch with, I’ve found useful work-related information, I’ve found colleagues to follow, and even found interesting conferences to attend. There’s a lot more going on over there.

I guess if I had to put it simply, I’d say I have limited time to play and there are more kids in the ActivityPub sandbox than this one. That’s not a ding on yarn–I like yarn and twtxt–I’m just time constrained.

L’interface web par dĂ©faut de mastodon est dĂ©cidĂ©ment trĂšs lourde. J’adore utiliser Ă  la place pinafore. C’est un bon compromis devant brutaldon. Dommage que l’auto-hĂ©berger semble si fragile, mais le site officiel est trĂšs bien: https://pinafore.social/

Wondering that part of the charm and attraction of Christmas markets could come from a common nostalgia towards every day street markets in towns and a longing for more outside social life during the cold, clammy Winter days.

I’ve been thinking of how to notify someone else that you’ve replied to their twts.

Is there something already developed, for example on yarn.social?

Let’s say I want to notify https://sour.is/tiktok/America/Denver.txt that I’ve replied to some twt. They don’t follow me back, so they won’t see my reply.

I would send my URL to, could be, https://sour.is/tiktok/replies?url=MY_URL and they’ll check that I have a reply to some of their twts, and could decide to follow me back (after seeing my twtxt profile to avoid spam)

Another option could be having a metadata like
follow-request=https://sour.is/tiktok/America/Denver.txt TIMESTAMP_IN_SECONDS
that the other client has to look for, to ensure that the request comes from that URL (again, to avoid spam)
This could be deleted after the other .txt has your URL in the follow list, or auto-expire after X days to clean-up old requests.

What do you think?

In-reply-to » Ya me volvieron a dar ganas de crear juegos de mesa digital.

lo cual es algo extraño. Disfruto mucho jugar Poker Texas en teléfono, quizås mås que en físico.
Aunque es un juego relativamente sencillo donde realmente no hay mucha socializaciĂłn.
Veo algo parecido con el ajedrez, donde la partida es mĂĄs importante que la persona.

En juegos sociales, deberĂ­a seguir experimentando.

Y eso si, es mas fĂĄcil crear una caja y escalar su producciĂłn, que hacer un videojuego muy escalable desde el principio.

Me estĂĄ encantando mucho la 2da temporada de Ted Lasso.

Entre lĂ­neas habla sobre los beneficios de la terapia, la asertividad, la responsabilidad social, etc.
Recuerdo que por ahĂ­ alguien compartiĂł la diferencia entre Club de Cuervos y Ted Lasso. Uno sobre burlarnos de nosotros mismos, y el otro de la adversidad.

I’m playing around with snac2, which I think @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no mentioned on here, and I have to say it’s extremely easy to set up and it’s been pretty straightforward so far. I wanted to experiment with having a presence on the Fediverse without going through the process of picking Mastodon vs. Gnu Social vs. Friendica vs. 
, and I wanted to self-host instead of picking an instance of one of those. For now I’m abucci@buc.ci, but no guarantees that will remain stable; I’m just testing for the time being.

So given’s Googleℱ’s recent policy changes where they now outright and blatantly just admit they’ll crawl, index and feed your (yes your fuckind) writings, thoughts, conversations, etc into their AI models; Should we as a small niche community (still growing) think about perhaps finally building Yarn.social v2 where we have encrypted feeds? 😅

In-reply-to » Jordan Peterson likes to mansplain at women when he knows nothing about the subject. Probably because he thinks women should be property of men instead of free individuals.

Also, what a douchebag using the title “Dr.” in his twitter handle. As a general rule, a white dude who isn’t a medical doctor putting “Dr.” in their social media title is a gigantic flashing red flag.
