@david@raw.githubusercontent.com your fork worked, and this is a fork, of your fork. Let’s fork’em!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net Indeed! No idea why this isn’t the default in the first place.

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Twtxthashgeddon, hahahaha, brilliant. :-D

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Haha! I’m glad you like it! 🤣 I ummed and arrred over the set of publishing backends it should support, and in the end decided to support Yarn, Github/Gitea and twtd. I hope that’s enough and flexible enough for most folks 🤞

What a week!

It looks like I mostly missed the #twtxthashgeddon (so happy belated twtxthashgeddon day, to those who celebrate), although I’m glad that twtxt-lib appears to have come through it more-or-less unscathed.

Also, today is (was) July 4th, so happy US Independence Day (to those that celebrate). I didn’t feel much like celebrating, myself, so instead I went and played Magic (results tomorrow).

Finally, today is (now) July 5th, so happy X-Day (to those that celebrate). I can’t help but feel like this would be a great time for the saucers to come…. Just sayin’. 👽

BTW - welcome to twtxt @GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com!

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Ahh you’re welcome bud! 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net Twtxt App looks great and is dead-simple to use. You’re on fire! 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net Excellent, thank you for this!

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com You’re welcome! ☺️

I see the same thing, @prologic@twtxt.net. They will eventually disappear.

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com Wiath what client? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net I don’t see it 😅

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com Yes, because if you edit/delete a Twt after the ecosystem has ingested it, well there then are two versions 😅 Just be aware of edits/deletes, especially if someone has already replied to said Twt 🤣

@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! 👍

@prologic@twtxt.net not really a new feed :)

@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.

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com Baseball, root beer, darts, atom bombs.

@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 😅

@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:

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. Clip of 27 in original resolution:

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:

@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 👍

@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!

@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 😢

@balloonfu-sen@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz 👍

@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”.

@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 😅

@’s Arcade@gabesarcade.com Welcome to Twtxt / Yarn.social 😅

@gabe@gabesarcade.com welcome to twtxt!

@kiwu@twtxt.net jump on IRC and tell us! Server irc.mills.io, on 6697 (TLS), join #lobby, then private message (I am quark). :-P

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org the siting lady reads this?

Gestiftet von

Or it is something else? Awesome pics, Lyse! Some oldies I missed (the lady), and some pretty cool new ones. I can’t get enough of nature pics!

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me likewise. I was very active on it in 1992, all until 1998. Then dropped off until 2020, but remained dormant. I have now awaken once more! 😂

I just read @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz’s blog post over here:

Jesus, it must be so overwhelming for young people to get started with programming.

When I started programming, there was the built-in ROM BASIC of that PC and probably a bit of BASIC on a floppy, and that was it. Nowadays? Millions of libraries and frameworks and languages and what not – and, much worse, there’s the expectation that you need to make something fancy. When I started, printing something and understanding IF was good enough.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org This apparently depends on the program now … Some Qt6 programs still allow that, others don’t. I can’t remember if GTK ever had that feature. 🤔 But yeah, this whole “move stuff around as you please”-mentality is mostly gone.

I know I keep referring to StarOffice 3.1 a lot, but it’s just such a good example for all these things. All the toolbars and panels could be rearranged:

(This is running in Wine, btw.)

LibreOffice is the descendant of StarOffice and it doesn’t support anything like that anymore.

Maybe it was deemed too confusing for users? “Oh no, I mis-clicked something and now that bar is gone! How do I get it back? I don’t even know what it’s called!” 🤔
