@thewismit@twtxt.psynergy.io @jlj@twt.nfld.uk in old school terminal jargon the ^H means control H or the sequence used in some terminals to indicate backspace. The “joke” is that the term failed to interpret it correctly and you can see the partially typed word before they changed it.

Hey @xuu@txt.sour.is another mention that didn’t render ☝️

@thewismit@twtxt.psynergy.io Hey! It’s easy. Just install the twt CLI with something like:

go get github.com/jointwt/twtxt/cmd/twt/...

Then use it in some hooks/scripts to post some content to your Pod.

@prologic@twtxt.net we would want:

• a way to reply to the current thread. We have this.
  
• a way to reply to a specific twt. Need this. Maybe make all the replies start new conversations?
  
• check if twt is start of a conversation.. we kinda have this in the main feed with the conversation button. need to extend it for forked convs
  
• a way to inline first replies. maybe show one or two in the sub thread with a link to view.
  
• for convenience have a link to parent conv?

@prologic@twtxt.net speaking of complexity.. How would checking twts for sub conversations complexify things?

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk @thewismit@twtxt.psynergy.io Custom Pod Logos are now available with PR 358 🎉 if you’d like to checkout this PR on your pods and recompile and let me know how it goes that would be swell 👌

@xuu@txt.sour.is @jlj@twt.nfld.uk @hxii@0xff.nu only if you look at the raw text file https://0xff.nu/blog.txt

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk oh dang the reply didnt add the reply. It was to @hxii@0xff.nu because Firefox shows his shruggy like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@prologic@twtxt.net @thewismit@blog.thewismit.com () possible, or a pod following any feeds it finds, if any one follows or not. So it has more twts cached

@prologic @darch Thank you for making twt.social etc:) I don’t think I have been this involed in a open source project before.

@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.

Twtxt is still very much alive and well. I just wrote a quick tool to crawl as much of the Twtxt network as I could and here’s what the results are:

Crawled 516 feeds
Found 52464 twts

That means there are >500 unique Twtxt feeds/users, and over ~52k Twts posted to date. 😳

@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)

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@twt.u53.us and @xuu@txt.sour.is 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 kinda.. It can parse the twts into an AST.. but most of the formatting out expects a string to do regex over rather then the parsed AST. thats what i am working out next.

@prologic@twtxt.net https://txt.sour.is/twt/cwqmygq

@xuu@txt.sour.is @prologic@twtxt.net had to up my twt size a bit.

@prologic@twtxt.netd so.. convert the 4 attributes in the struct to private, add getters plus some the other methods that make sense.

type Twt interface {
	Twter()        Twter
	Text()         string
	MarkdownText() string
	Created()      time.Time
    ... 
}

@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.

@prologic@twtxt.net do you think twt will ever add ActivityPub integration?

@prologic@twtxt.net Yep! installed it yesterday. I like the simplicity of twt. I am quite happy with how little memory the pod seems to use. Mastodon and the “lightweight” Pleroma don’t work well in small VMs.

hello twt!
