I bet there is someone who wrote a paper, a book or something about the impact of the death of MySpace on music projects. I'm saying this more or less hoping that someone will one day point me to one, I'd love to read it. What I know is that lately I have been revisiting my record collection and confirming that there is an enormous amount of recording artists and projects that started with the MySpace phenomenon, and ended with MySpace's death.

«The judge considered that, despite Renault Portugal having claimed the company and brand has no means to block the vehicles, it was proved that "there is a computer platform that was activated, in a way not disclosed, and through which was operated first the blocking and then the unblocking of the batteries”.»
@movq I don't really know. Here's a concerning quote:
«A juíza considerou que, apesar de a Renault Portugal ter garantido que a empresa e a marca não tinham meios para bloquear as viaturas, se fez prova de que “há uma plataforma informática que foi accionada, de forma que as requeridas não concretizaram, e através da qual foi operado primeiro o bloqueio e depois o desbloqueio das baterias”.»
Renault has a remote locking "feature" on the batteries of their electric cars. They used it in Portugal, and that was considered illegal.

@abucci To be fair, it was already codified there. What is more interesting (to me) is how they're using a privacy policy (binding their users) in an attempt to get implicit licensing over materials out of the scope of those services, both from their users and others (or of authors unknown). Not that it matters much, I bet they'd argue such license is unneeded, but the fact that they decided to have that wording there makes me curious about the legal basis of such clause. Yes, I know Goggle had an extensive and capable legal team, but I'd still love seeing a legal analysis of the applicability of that under various jurisdictions.

@prologic I like that the information is there to help those reading the feed - automatically (with a client) or manually.
@lyse from my POV, both approaches achieve the same, and I'd be happy to see one or the other on yarn generated feeds.
AFAIK, the only way is to use yarnc, but I do believe it is important that the web interface has an easy way for people to delete one of their twts, and just created a feature request.

um poema censurado para o dia do livro, em ante-véspera do 25 de abril:
@carsten here's the same prompt on craiyon.com, no retries: 
Tomorrow is "Record Store Day", a date that I have been feeling as yearly losing its purpose, now focused on the US and UK markets, markets, with a focus on commercialism. Today I read FLUR's newsletter - a Portuguese record store that this year decided not to celebrate RSD, with an extraordinarily well articulated text on what is wrong with RSD (and the 'vinyl indistry') lately. A shame the text isn't published somewhere.
@prologic It works for me...
@prologic yeah, or any fitbit... measuring the heartrate is easy and cheap, and depending on the accuracy level it can be as cheap as... well, PPG, and any phone with a camera and flashlight can do it. But only yesterday I connected the dots on my mind regarding the sort (and potential uses) of the data being collected as soon as someone tries out a new band or watch.
Did you know that "Heartbeat biometric identification is considered to be very accurate and at a similar level to fingerprints or retina recognition"? Food for thought.
The old kindle story of digital burning of Fahrenheit 451 had already shown the perils of using e-book platforms, but the recent IA lawsuit has highlighted a graver danger: with one click, in an instant and without anyone knowing, a vendor can (and does) "update" a book. It is not that new issues of Agatha Christie's books will be sold "moderized" it is that suddenly you cannot go to your library and find an old/original version. Chilling.
I am against the original idea of forking twtxt.txt into yarn.txt unless I see any technical reason or feature that would justify breaking compatibility - so far I don't see one. But I agree in principle with @darch that maybe we can add something on the metadata of the feeds enumerating the extensions we use or... I don't know, something that will allow any twtxt user to know how to deal with any 'yarnisms' in the content of our twts (even if the only one that comes to my mind as needing explanation is the thread hashes - how to interpret them).
Today, Ubuntu decided to change the default browser in one of my machines. Again :rolleyes:
@prologic I'd actually not replace it with newlines but with a space or something like that, so there's nothing breaking (twtxt output parsers or whatever, expecting only one line per twt).
@prologic What I take out from this log is that buckets client is truncating twts when seeing one of those characters you use for newline: a PR fixing that should suffice. As for the rest, I see twtxt as meant to be a readable format, and I think yarn is not messing with that. Is someone doesn't like yarn's writing style (or anything else on any other feed) they can simply not follow them. I see no reason at all for yarn to change its underlying format away from twtxt.
@prologic the other still doesn't work for me, but this one does
@prologic I probably would not use an yarn.social client/app that didn't deal with twtxt (text) feeds - both "follow" them and "publish" them. But I suppose that it is possible to have a bidirectional converter between that json format and twtxt.
@prologic net::ERR_HTTP_RESPONSE_CODE_FAILURE
@movq good example. Should the medical device manufacturer be liable? Yes. Should the library developer be liable? No.
@prologic I think these proposals come from lawmakers that ignore the existence or the importance of the Open Source ecosystem; and indeed this moving forward as is would be tragic for all free software development. eg., out of my free time I've contributed a few patches to several twtxt/yarn related projects. I do not want to by liable for them, however.
@rlafuente tás a enviar mixed signals, que é muita bom foi o que eu ouvi na net!
@prologic Perhaps Eclipse's article on the subject is clearer.. but the main focus on Python's text is on the liability clauses: while it might make sense that if you buy a product with software (or a software product) the vendor should be liable for its safety, security, etc., that does not translate well to the free software world, and it will have a chilling effect if, suddenly you (as a free software developer) start being liable for the flaws in that software. Python folks point out (and I agree) that "Assigning liability to every upstream developer would create less security, not more", Eclipse people point out that "Every open source license contains no liability clauses", and argue that "It is the companies which commercialize the technology and make a business from it who need to accept liability and provide warranties to their paying customers, not the open source projects".

This is an image with an alt text with new lines in it. Yarn.social's web interface renders it "well", the mobile app does not. Which is the correct behavior? Is this how new lines on image's alts are supposed to be? If so, should the web interface be replacing the "new line characters" with actual new lines? Or, in fact, what is the correct way to add a new line in alt texta in html?
So many questions 😊 anyone care to comment?
@prologic I see. Well, as I said, I see value in such a bridge, but I don't think it replaces yarn.social's AP integration. It could, however, be used as a backend in yarn.social: a pod would delegate the AP bridging, and all of that would be transparent to the user.
Also, how would you go about it? I mean, I can start using a txt on my client that is actually coming from a proxy service generating it from an AP account (like we already have on feeds), but how do I announce that your service should "follow back" my own feed so you can see replies and translate them into AP replies?
@prologic While I think this is a cool idea, I don't think it is a replacement for what you have been trying to achieve on yarn.social.

@prologic I see: I was speaking in the end user's perspective tho, I suppose those concerns only really affect the pod owner? And, if that is the case, giving a pod owner the ability to toggle AP integration on/off us probably good enough to mitigate those concerns?
@prologic to be fair, I don't really see a difference here: with the integration, users still only see the feeds they choose to read (either as a twtxt or AP), right? Or this is more a problem of the integration making the network "grow too fast"?

Other then that you only have the transport means, but you don't really need to use e-mail if that is your concern, you can for eg. set up an anonymous ftp... you just need to get the formatted patches, git not having its own transport is not a limitation but the freedom to let you get patches in any way you want! ;-)

@prologic @lucidiot @movq So, apparently yarn is transforming hashtags into search urls, ob the feed. This makes things unreadable and seems totally unnecessary. Shouldn't this be a client feature? Why should my feed have a link to a search engine instead of a hashtag? And why can't the client (when it is a visual client like goryon or the web) react to hashtags (all of them) by linking to a search interface? Am I missing something?
@prologic @lucidiot @movq unlike the comment on the twtxt feed, this blog post is really extensive, interesting and provides insightful and useful comments. I'm not sure I can agree to all of it, but I certainly can understand the point of view. Curiously, what appears to have been the tipping point is also something I believe we can and should fix: hashtags. 1/2

But sure, I can see how reading these feeds might be frustrating: too big posts, markdown everywhere, linebreak characters, emojis... But I'll consider it the "freedom of the user" to decide whether or not to follow a feed written in a certain style. The provocative metadata comment? Easy (and better) to just ignore.
@mckinley Well, sort of? I've been using them (copying or adapting and extending from what I saw others do) since before yarn.social was a thing. Yarn doesn't (and shouldn't) have the monopoly of "using twtxt comments how we like".
@prologic Well, the devil is in the details: what did he meant by that? Maybe nothing good...
Twitter has a new "social platforms" policy... is it maddening? Hilarious? Ridiculous? All of the above? I laughed, but to be clear, I don't think 'funny' is a good way to describe it.
Nothing like a deadline to force you to do something... this year I'll be celebrating the Winter Solstice by playing at Tidal Club's Night Stream (under the Merankorii moniker).
Now I just need to learn TidalCycles! 😇
@eaplmx is the guide to a DRM-free living useful?
Today is #DayAgainstDRM! Since this year's topic is #FreedomtoShare, I'll celebrate it by starting to read a book from the local library!
And you, what are your plans for Day Against DRM?

@prologic they actually have a nice write-up about the "why's". And you know what? Now I'm sort of wishing I had one...

@slashdot How interesting... my grandfather from my mother's side insisted on counting his years on the Korean age system: he started with 1 instead of 0, and every 1st of January... but that was really his birthday: he was born on new years eve at midnight. I doubt that he knew South Koreans did this, tho.
WhatsApp lost an attempt to annul a binding decision regarding a GDPR violation, which is good news. But the fact that, in reaction to it, an WA spokesperson says that this makes no sense because "this case concerns a privacy policy from four years ago that has since been updated" only shows the sense of impunity big tech feels, as well as how ridiculous it is that they are able to drag these things for so long. In the meantime, they keep violating the law (just yesterday Meta lost three other GDPR-related cases!), and with no end in sight - even today's WA case is far from over, with appeals ongoing and more chances for appeal available. A sour-tasting victory, today's.
Hurricane, Red Hat 5.0, was released 25 years ago (december 1st, 1997). It came out as a 2CD installation, even if it was quite common to find one-CD editions of it being shipped with magazines and used all around. You'd need to have at least 8Mb of RAM in order to indulge in this release, which marked a milestone for many of us.
My "Spotify Wrap" of 2022 is that I didn't use Spotify during the year. 🥳✌️
@prologic I suppose that should be noted both on the spec and client implementations. At least your client doesn't deal very well with it...

@abucci Definitely going into my bag of tools!
@slashdot @eaplmx Still to reply to the "what can be done?" question, here's one thing: each of us can sign this open letter
@paulasimoes signed!
@mckinley @eaplmx There's zero evidence that DRM hinders piracy, plenty of evidence that it harms both consumers and artists. There's plenty of good stuff written about it, Doctorow is a personal favorite author of mine. Here's one sort of random text of his about DRM.
@slashdot @eaplmx we're getting more limited in what we can do on a consumer level (boycotting is not always an option, for eg. all cars in the EU must have software, and no options exist in the market where it is free software), but beyond voting with the wallet, we can also vote in politics and policies, as much more can be done in a regulatory level. in Europe it is possible to protect users a bit from DRM, and we now want the right to install whatever we want on our devices, just to give a couple of examples.
@slashdot Cars being more often an IoT hell was so easily accepted, that now they're more and more becoming a DRM hell. Consumers should stop accepting the idea that they are not the owners of what they buy.
I decided to publish (and maintain) a very brief timeline of the climate crisis, mostly for my own sake.
@eaplmx Welcome to the world of enneaphobia!
@prologic yup, I have nothing but ❤️ for all the work you have been doing around it!👍
@prologic Well, basically I refer to a "radical decentralization", with twtxt you don't need to host a pod or maintain any software, nor rely on any 3rd parties, you can simply manage a text file, and make it available however works best for you. It provides a quite refreshing sort of independence I mostly miss from the internet of decades ago. Mastodon is nice, but it doesn't give you /that/.
@eaplmx Tough, I like it! 
No ano passado falava-se em termos o comboio a chegar a todas as cidades com mais e 20 mil habitantes, mas ontem o documento aprovado para ir para consulta pública fala só em 28 centros urbanos, num projecto "sem fixação de prazo, mas com um horizonte indicativo de 2050". Para que conste, em 2021 havia 120 municípios com mais de 20 mil habitantes.
@prologic it works, but Collabora Office works better (or did?). Both have integration with nextcloud which makes hosting it way easier.
@prologic Well, I just went to confirm, and people are referring to their presence on mastodon with the initial @, so... yes, better support both formats!
@prologic I don't know enough about mastodon to be sure

@prologic plannning a new feature for feeds.twtxt.net ?
Ouvi as entrevistas de Paulo Raimundo à RTP e à CNN. Gostei do que ouvi (dele). Sei que as entrevistas foram curtas e necessariamente não-exaustivas, mas entristece-me não ter ouvido nenhuma referência à crise climática.
Estou sempre a mandar vir com quem gosta de anunciar a vindoura morte das coisas, em especial cassetes... Mas só agora dou o devido valor ao artigo onde a Exame Informática anunciava a morte da cassete... em 1997, há um quarto de século! 
@prologic no thoughts, just curious! I first assumed it wasn't possible, but your comment made me think it might be. And now that you aren't sure, I'm starting to worry 😅
Desde o dia 7 de novembro que 6 escolas em Lisboa se encontram ocupadas por estudantes que exigem o fim ao fóssil. A ocupação deverá acabar amanhã, porque "Dia 12 de novembro, dia mundial pela Justiça Climática, irão todas à manifestação «Unir Contra o Fracasso Climático», marcada para as 14h da tarde no Campo Pequeno, em Lisboa."
@dfaria True! I suppose I'd like the 'search' section on twtxt.net to work like search.twtxt.net (or even post to there, I wouldn't mind if pressing the search button would take me to search.twtxt.net ...)
@prologic, are there any plans to add the ability of full text search on yarn pods? Is this something I should open an issue/feature request for?
@eaplmx "twt=tweet, and twtxt=tweetext" seems great, I'll adopt those! Maybe there should be a glossary (including this 'preference') somewhere on yarn.social ...
Para atingir a meta de não ultrapassar os 1.5ºC até 2030, preciamos de reduzir para metade as nossas emissões de CO2 até ao final da década. Mas, em vez de prestar atenção para isso, Costa foca-se no objectivo de 2050 (quiçá porque está mais longe), e aparenta estar mesmo interessado em resolver o problema da crise climática, ao ponto de sugerir antecipar os objectivos para lá, de 2050 para 2045. E, enquanto chama a atenção para essa "atitude positiva", espera que ninguén note que Portugal está em falta - no pesente - no cumprimento dos seus compromissos tomados para a acção climática.

@mckinley @lyse The link rel bit is because the feed can have relative urls. ie, if it is on http://example.com/feed, in can have somewhere in there a 
for eg.. If I download that feed I to my hard-drive and then try to render it, I need to know that "icon.jpg" is relative to http://example.com/feed, ie, that I will find it at http://example.com/icon.jpg (and not locally, next to the feed file I downloaded).
I hope my explanation makes sense...

@prologic tbf, microblogs as comment systems might just be a wrong idea. I was led towards it by the current twitter implementation on bashblog (which I use), but the more I think about it the more I suspect that it just is the wrong tool for the job.
@prologic I was thinking more on something along the lines of the current twitter "integration", but now that I think more about it, I realize that darch's suggestion has more merit than what I initially realized. The blog comments system can be a twtxt feed, each entry a new twt/hash, each user comment referring to that hash.
Thinking about reviving (#xi7nivq) - the idea of managing bashblog comments with twtxt instead of leading people to Twitter.
One of the things that attracts me about the "twtxt social network" is how radically decentralized it is. Not only each user is its own node (maintaining its own text file feed), there's no limits to the protocols used to access each feed. Sure, most of the feeds are probably being served over http or https, but there are feeds being served over gopher, and I bet some of them over ftp/ftps. But it doesn't have to be that way - feeds can be distributed in any modern equivalent to the sneakernet, you can save yours in a usb stick or a floppy disk, hand it over by hand or send it via postal mail; you can distributed them on a mailing list, on the usernet... The limit is your imagination.
This reflection made me realize that there's no reason to wait for secushare, twtxt feeds can already be used, shared, maintained and spread on GNUnet, taking this social media platform to the GNU Internet.
There are many interesting things to observe in this recent Twitter exodus (and the boost it is giving to Mastodon's adoption). One of them is that I haven't read even once yet about someone who's "leaving Twitter for Facebook" or something like that: officially, Facebook is no longer a "social media alternative" to Twitter users.
@movq @eaplmx there's an online service for that, https://www.lulu.com/pricing
@eaplmx Yes, the regardless part is what scares me... In Portugal the major parties want it for general elections, despite what I said above applying to us. There have been talks about a constitutional revision to allow it, but they're purposefully ignoring that no amount of national legislation is going to make it GDPR-compliant...
@eaplmx To add to those challenges, there is yet another legal requirement in many electroral systems: it needs to be understandable and scrutinizeable by "random people". There is an understanding that, in the EU, this requirement exists independently on any specific requirement for it, due to nr. 1 of art. 5 of the GDPR (the "transparent manner" bit).
Sometimes I get terrified for some moments with the naïvity of the greedy. As an example, when people advocate AI-generated stuff can/should be copyrightable, under the expectation that they'll be making some money from that, without realizing about the impact of the repercussions of what they propose, also to themselves...

@eaplmx Well, wow! Only now I am learning about Microsoft Game Shop... But I was a Nibbles player!
Worms 2 was released a quarter of century ago. A game I've played countless hours, many of them with a Moonspell CD on the drive, which would make the game play songs from it (specially "Opium").

Thanks!, reading that was useful.
It seems to me that the choice of 'relative' was meant to consider users' use cases (multi-protocol, moving the feeds from one place to another, etc.), without any added convenience to the clients, specifically. Thus, I'd argue that there is nothing against extending the spec to also allow full paths: current users are unnafected, and we'd be catering for new/other use cases.
Yes, I do realize that would mean this would have to go into a new version of the spec, and clients would have to implement it in order to comply with the new version of the spec.
@prologic oh, yes, they'll remain the same (tilde's being a backup).
@hacker-news Uh-oh. Will we finally start focusing on RISC-V?
Oops, this was the picture I wanted to send ;-)
At least we can try and try again! ;-)
Mappy is a game from 1983, but it was 30 years ago that I've seen it for the first time, in a neighbor's NES.
Three decades later, but at least now I get to play it for as long as I want 😇
As in standards, it would actually be healthy for the twtxt network if it became heterogeneous, with pods running competing implementations (yarn and something else) of the protocol. Perhaps we're not there yet, but I suppose we should design taking that into account...
@prologic assuming the pod is running a recent version of yarn, unmodified. But we can assume that...
@prologic well, this is embarrassing, I manage to reach the result on the web interface, but not to find an URL that will point to them...
@prologic I suppose https://search.twtxt.net/search?q=%23opev6mq&t=term&f=conv is the right link...
@movq @prologic Redirects will work for on feed removals, if the poderator is interested in providing them - it depends on its benevolence and good will. In any case, removals must be implemented somehow (at least in pods operating under EU law), so there's no downside in implementing it with a redirect option.
Regarding # prev, maybe it is best to recover the old thread (which I think was (#opev6mq)).
@abucci @prologic we had a conversation about this a few months ago... While the redirect option is nice to have, I still feel it might not be enough, specially since it depends on the support of the poderator. Having the possibility to point a new feed to a specific old one would help (ie, prev allowing full URIs instead of relative paths, and pods letting users define their feeds prev).
Sorry I'm pulling this topic into an already complex thread ;-), specially when I was supposed to write a proposal for this change, and never did (yet?)...
Hey @prologic , yarn's deployment documentation refers to cloudflare, but it isn't really a requirement, is it? If not, should we enhance this doc to have 'without cloudflare' steps?
@prologic not a priority for me right now, but that's useful, thanks for the tip!
@prologic I'm listening... what does that provide beyond what I can get with a cron'd wget?
For those that might be a little bit lost regarding my twtxt presence:
- I host my own twtxt feed here so I can remain independent of 3rd party providers, and "owner of my own feed". However;
- Currently my feed is being generated and managed at twtxt.net, which allows me, amongst other things, to use goryon, a nice mobile app, to manage my feed (even if twtxt.net's web interface works pretty well on mobile);
- On a geeky sidenote, I haven't still set aside the idea of running my own single-user yarn pod instead of relying on twtxt.net, but I didn't want to postpone this movement any longer, now that there's a new twitter exodus;
- For historic purposes, you can still find my old twtxts on the old feed, now rotated into a new address;
- Finally, there's still a twtxt feed of my tweets.
Hi @prologic, question regarding responsible use of twtxt.net's services. How much is "too intensive" an use of its endpoints? For eg, an "every minute" fetch of a twt feed is considered OK? (I honestly have no idea about the default frequency of communication between pods and all that...)
@prologic yes, both point to the same "no credible pathway in place", which is to say that... finally approving a watered-down measure is not something we should applaud, as, in order to still manage 1.5C, we need more, stronger measures.
@prologic there's a new version: https://www.instructables.com/ArduinoPhone-20-an-Open-Source-Mobile-Phone-Based-/
@prologic tbh, as a maintainer participation only makes sense if your projects are already hosted either in github or gitlab - or if you are starting a new project. In any case, there is still plenty of time to participate!
@slashdot The whole idea that FRAND is good enough for standard essential patents, instead of the patent-free nature of open standards, is an invitation to this sort of mess. When we accept something as vague as FRAND, /of course/ there is going to be dispute. No matter who wins, the common citizen always loses.
@retrocrash s/agree/aged/ ...
@retrocrash I plan to return to it soon(ish), have some ideas I want to use libgnunetchat on: I sort of wrote "about it" in 2006, but the text probably didn't agree too well (here). In any case, I'm quite excited with how Messenger (with a flatpack and everything!) is progressing... I'm certainly planning to become a user of that, at the very least.
@movq I have thought of different approaches, each have strengths and weaknesses. Mostly, I'd like to know what others think :-) In any case, I suppose I'd like to "extend" the hashtag generation API, so each blog post can have its own thread hash tag (like twts do). Then, "listing" the comments could be via querying a registry, and the "leave a comment" link could link to https://preconfigured-yarn.pod/?newtwt=@blogowner%20(#hashtag) or whatever link that would open that pod ready to create that new post if you're logged in. Bonus points if you can configure more than one pod and it displays a dropdown; more bonus if we decide to implement twt:// uris letting twt clients listen to those (including a browser plug-in letting you say 'open twt:// uris on https://my.pod').
Yes, I might be overengineering.
Estou de regresso à escrita, e à Ficção Científica.
Desta vez, participo com um pequeno conto para o livro "Lamego 2022 - o antes e o depois", uma colectânia de textos nos mais variados formatos e estilos, que olha para a cidade onde nasci - não só como ela é hoje, mas na sua História passada e história futura.
O lançamento deste livro vai ser já no próximo dia 5 de Junho, enquadrado no festival "Lamego Cidade Poema".
I'm not the only twtxt'er that has an bashblog blog... How cool would it be to be able to integrate twtxt comments in it, in replacement to the current twitter comments implementations? With the way threads work in yarn instances, twtxt could even provide way more than just a replacement to twitter...
@slashdot 15 years? Posts like these are what makes me feel old.
@slashdot OMG, I just want to stab my eyes now. When did the /. crowd become so dumb?
@prologic Who knew 2022 was able to bring good news too...
@prologic it's accurate!
@prologic No pressure!
@prologic That's what it looks like.
(and also my first twted image!)
I've just realized Diablo has made 25 years (a quarter of a century!) in January. I didn't see any... special release, events or a flurry of articles about it, and that surprises me: Diablo introduced and popularized battle.net in a way that created a new (and different) generation of internet users and enthusiasts - way beyond gamers and gaming.
@slashdot "stable"coin.
@hacker-news @ullarah Correct: CUDA remains closed source, so these new open source kernel modules remain useless if you want to use only free software. The good part of it is that it will "serve as a reference to help improve the Nouveau driver."
@prologic I see reasons for allowing absolute URIs, and see no reason not to.
I suppose I should condense this thread into a write-up proposing the change, explaining why, and proposing client behaviors ("how to deal with a prev pointing to an absolute URI"). But that takes time, and I don't know when will I reserve some to sit down and actually do the proposal :-)
@prologic I think so, yes. More generically, places were you have no control over the webserver (hosting services via ssh/ftp without htaccess support is another example).
@movq That would be a scenario, yes.
@slashdot Just one more (high profile) case.
Mandating a return to the office, instead of not letting workers decide what works best for them is, at the very least, shortsighted.
@kevin is it just me, or BBS access via telnet oh.mg (port 23) isn't working?
@movq That's the scenario, yes. Importing twtxt feeds seems like a good functionality, but it doesn't totally replace (or exaust) the scenarios in which one could want to have their "prev, static twtxt file" on a different path/subdomain/etc...
@prologic It's a hint: it nudges my feed's followers "hey read this twtxt in another feed". We can probably find a better way to implement these hints or nudges, but if there's nothing in place, I wonder if we won't end up with a bunch of twtxts just saying "agree" or "+1"...
@prologic Apparently, nitter "Uses Twitter's unofficial API (no rate limits or developer account required)", so I suppose you could run your own instance and not depend on a 3rd party, or even just see on nitter's code (it's free software!) thev relevant parts of that 'unofficial API'...
@prologic Spoofing is always possible, and always a concern (don't we "deal" with it already for the url field?).
For the side-question, the feature is nice but depends on availability, and trust, I'm more interested in adversarial interoperability. What if I'm moving from a pod because I dislike their new policies, or new terms of service, their monetization model, etc.? And what guarantees do we have that every pod (or even yarn implementation) will have the redirect option available to its users?
@prologic ReTweet... Two common things I miss here from twitter: RTs and <3's.
@prologic Nitter's RSS solves the issue! I'd probably advocate for replacing the current (not working) Twitter import option with it! Sure, you get dependent on a 3rd party, but it avoids all the "hypocrisy" questions! ;-)
@marado Now I just need to know what does the twtxt community do in lieu of RT...
@prologic @movq Imagine I want to stop updating my feed on my domain.com by starting a new feed at coolerdomain.net, but point to the previous one in its previous address, for history purposes.
Or maybe I want to stop using this pod because I think I like yours best, or I host my own now... so I want to continue there, pointing to this as my previous one.
@prologic 😥 It might be worth doing it via twitter's API... but since I'm not volunteering to implement it, I'll just remain sad :-P
@prologic here's another question (sorry!), is something wrong going on with the feeds service? https://feeds.twtxt.net/twitter-mind_booster/twtxt.txt does not seem to be updated since January (but the source is...)
I'm uncertain I'm looking at the right place, but from how I read it, absolute URLs not only aren't mandated, they aren't even a possibility. I'll open a PR soon(TM)
Hey @prologic, https://dev.twtxt.net/doc/archivefeedsextension.html allows only for a prev filename but not a full URL. Is there any reason why? Even for non-self-hosters, being able to point to a new domain would be good for interoperability, right?

According to some on twitter (see https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1518662153343057923?t=HAwtAoxkxZ-H6E8Px7qq1w&s=19 as an example), twitter share trading has halted, and the announcement of Musk buying Twitter is imminent.
I'm a little disappointed to not see more people talking about twtxt as an alternative to twitter…
@lyse @mckinley damn, now I'm sad that the way they do it doesn't really follow the twtxt format…
@prologic yes, functionally an yarnd with --single-user is all/exactly what I'm seeking.
Technically I'd then probably still want a port/clone of it into a lighter-weight, easilly hostable alternative (so you can file-drop into any tilde host, or even those FTP-only hostings…), but that's a bridge to cross when I get there…
@lyse @darch @fastidious @thecanine @prologic Seems to me that the sync is only useful if it allows a lot more editing (eventually even a complete rewrite). Which I am all for, but then the edit/deletion restriction on the UI becomes sort of an hassle, as someone more tech-savvy will be able to do things that less tech-savvy users will not…
@darch Great stuff, thanks! That does solve my "publishing" part of the equation, even if it still doesn't work as a client (either web or mobile)…
@prologic So, there is an API! This is offtopic for the thread (sorry) but can you link me to its documentation? I'm thinking about creating a single-user barebones "pod", compatible with the mobile app but that manages a single twtxt file.
Goryon - the twtxt mobile app - is making me think about hosting a yarn pod - just so I can use it while keeping my (real, self-hosted) twtxt "account". I wonder if there's an easy way to host a lightweight, single-user version of the endpoint… or if there's documentation about how to write one.
@prologic Cool! I haven't followed what has been going on in twtland for a while. Can you please share links to jenny and tt?
