@prologic@twtxt.net that would be an interesting idea. I think your current spec of using an SMTP proto is probably best for DM.
but having a federation of IRC servers would be interesting for realtime twt propagation.
@prologic@twtxt.net sounds about right. I tend to try to build my own before pulling in libs. learn more that way. I was looking at using it as a way to build my twt mirroring idea. and testing the lex parser with a wide ranging corpus to find edge cases. (the pgp signed feeds for one)
@prologic@twtxt.net the add function just scans recursivley everything.. but the idea is to just add and any new mentions then have a cron to update all known feeds
@xuu@txt.sour.is Are you interested in getting on Signal and swapping contact details and such so we can discuss some ideas in collaboration in more real-time? You have great ideas, I think we could benefit from a bit more real(ish) time 😀
@prologic@twtxt.net after stewing on it. I really like the idea of a wiki. throw it on the roadmap after DMs 😆
@prologic@twtxt.net My thoughts on it being if they switched from a different way of hosting the file or multiple locations for redundancy..
I have an idea of using something like SRV records where they can define weighted url endpoints to reach.
@prologic@twtxt.net I have some ideas to improve on twtxt. figure I can contribute some. 😁 bit more work and it will almost be a drop in replacement for ParseFile
Kinda wish types.Twt was an interface. it’s sooo close.
@lucidiot@tilde.town [re: abandoned ideas] Thanks for the inspiration! How do you keep track of projects now? Do you know about TaskWarrior?
@kas@enotty.dk Thanks for the suggestion using Keybase. Playing around with the authenticity idea.
@von@tilde.town having topic-specific twtxt feeds is not a silly idea. Not sure if the clients allow easy switching though.
@kas@enotty.dk twtxt.txt file splitting for achival is an interesting idea. Should not need to be yearly only. High volume feeds could split faster. Needs a spec though.
This kinda gets back to Ted Nelson’s idea of copy and paste: https://speare.com
I came across the idea of a Book of Shadows and, with benefit of ignorance, compared it to the idea of a personal wiki.
@kas@enotty.dk I liked the idea that the reader’s client should enforce the length limit.
