Happy New Year to the readers of my little Twtxt feed! Wishing you and are your family all the best.

My 400th Twtxt Post will be about you: wishing you, reader of my Twtxt feed, all the best for the coming year and most of all love, health, and that your projects and work may contribute to the greater good of all mankind. I will be taking a social-media break for a couple of weeks to enjoy this special time with my family. I hope you will be able to do this with your family and friends too.

Did I write here already that the reason why I love Twtxt so much is that it works without having to compile, install anything extra. Just the bin applications that come with 95% of all operating systems and you're good to read and participate, giving you have a domain name somewhere to host the twtxt.txt file.

Added TwtHash hashes to every message on my personal Twtxt HTML renderer. Code is not yet ready for prime-time. Need to work out some kinks still.

I have been on Twtxt for five years straight now. Hurray me.

Obligatory Twtxt post: I love how I can simply use a terminal window and some very basic tools (echo, scp, ssh) to publish thoughts, as they pop up, onto the Internet in a structured way, that can be found and perhaps even appreciated.

So now that I have a basic Twtxt form, I can also update my feed even when I am not on my PC.

Building a Twtxt Gui with some JS and HTML as an example application.

I just backed up my twtxt.txt data on a medium that will last for years if treated well: 4 sheets of paper.

Reading the backlog of my twtxt posts and it's nice to be able to just delete some outdated things by editing a simple txt file.

Upgraded my Twtxt feed to 2023 with the twtxt.net twthash extension.

So it happened - the twtxt.xyz domain finally expired

Upgraded my Twtxt feed to 2022 with the twtxt.net meta-data extensions.

Happy New Year 2022 Twtxt!

@von Welcome back!

@prologic Thanks. Nothing much to it. Perhaps I'll make it better later.

@darch Yes, nothing much to it. Full source code is free to use :-) I will probably add some analytics and sorting options later.

Not sure why exactly, but I made sure my Twtxt HTML page renders okay on a Nokia 8110 4G 240px screen.

I made https://johanbove.info/twtxt.html with a couple of lines of JS today. Makes it a bit easier to read my Twtxt feed online.

@prologic Could you make the polling of your server a little slower please? Thanks.

@uninformativ Welcome to Twtxt! Liking your introduction article and your Gopherhole is awesome.

@prologic I will probably check out twtxt.net later. Can we use it without registering for an account?

@Leo Sorry to disappoint. I think I have Finger running on my Raspberrypi but didn't make it public.

Hello Twtxt from a Xubuntu 18.04 machine!

@lucidiot [re: abandoned ideas] Thanks for the inspiration! How do you keep track of projects now? Do you know about TaskWarrior?

The twtxt.xyz domain is a 1000 days old and expires on 2020-04-07. Wondering if anyone will renew it?

Happy New Year Twtxt!

@irongeek Welcome to Twtxt! I don't think anyone still is doing something on http://twtxt.xyz/ honestly. It just runs on its own.

@xandkar Welcome to Twtxt! Noticed a typo in your twtxt user-agent handle. It is pointing to txtxt.txt.

Twtxt is real enough. Feels funny to be so open writing here, yet nobody knows twtxt.txt is here - part of the charm

@lucidiot (re: Bratislava) Good one! :-)

@kas (re: signing) Thanks for the suggestion using Keybase. Playing around with the authenticity idea.

Signing my twtxt with my johanbove@keybase.io account from today onwards

@kas I like your gopher server's formatting, nice and clean and how did you implement the TLS certificate?

twtxt feels a little like launching simple digital bottle notes into the vast oceans of the Internet

@robbinaer The domain move seems to have worked. :-)

@kas [re: gopher client] If you happen to be on Windows, then Gopher Browser for Windows by Matt Owen is pretty nice, otherwise I use Lynx indeed for gopher.

@lucidiot (re: bullet journal) Agreeing that BuJo kind of saved my mind too. It now takes me about three months to fill up 251 pages with tasks, notes and events.

@adiabatic (re: iphone xr) True. The battery life is great - especially since it is new. FaceID is very handy indeed. The bigger screen estate is amazing too. Also esim might be cool - if only my provider would support it.

@frogor (re: iphone xr) compared to the Iphone 7. XR might be more powerful but it's clumsy to hold as big and heavy. Does not feel like a phone at all.

@kas (re: Splitting) Good stuff kas++ What command or script did you use to split by year?

@von Understanding you. For me: keeping a bullet-journal on a paper notebook helped me herd my chaotic mind into manageable streams. See https://bulletjournal.com

@von having topic-specific twtxt feeds is not a silly idea. Not sure if the clients allow easy switching though.

@kas 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.

@reednj Thanks for making and hosting http://twtxt.xyz - the agreggation of twtxts users, tweets and tags is really cool

Made my own super basic twtxt client in 3 lines of code as a bashrc function. #l33t

@adiabatic the 0 indicates the txt file type in gophermaps. Gopherholes are made up of mostly plain text files. Does that answer your question?

twtxt is über cool

One of the biggest twtxt feed files I could find is still only 127 KB big

@von Why do you want to keep your twtxt.txt more private if I may ask so?
