We should look at this thread https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy-fed/issues/1873 #twtxt

Thank you @python_valencia for letting me show you the secrets of a decentralised plain text social network like twtxt. I hope you enjoyed the talk! ❤️🐍 #python #twtxt

I want to present the twtxt feed from Python Valencia: https://twtxt.python-valencia.es/ Technical curiosity: It is generated using n8n, using the official rss. #welcome

I am working on this: https://dm-echo.andros.dev/ More news coming soon. #twtxt

In a couple of days I'll be giving a talk about #twtxt https://www.meetup.com/es-ES/python-valencia-meetup/events/306769708/

What is twtxt for me? It is a community of users sharing plain text following a specification that can be readable by both humans and machines.

For some it is a microblogging platform, for others it is a social network, others see it as an enhanced RSS feed and a few consider it a hacker's toy. I use it as a learning platform. And as collateral damage, I'm meeting some very interesting people.

And for you?

I have released new updates to the twtxt.el client.

• New feature: Notifications.
• Updated: Improved user interface for new posts.
• Updated: Documentation.
• Updated: Some UI elements and included information about shortcuts in each buffer.
• Minor fixes. Source code: https://codeberg.org/deadblackclover/twtxt-el In the next version: You will be able to send direct messages. Enjoy! #emacs #twtxt #twtxtel

I'm sharing a short tutorial, in Spanish, for self-hosting #twtxt with Docker: https://programadorwebvalencia.com/twtxt-desplegar-tu-feed-con-docker/

What does the #twtxt community think about having a p2p database to store all history? This will be managed by Registries.

You can find the #twtxt-el channel in Libera IRC to talk about the twtxt.el client, I will keep my connection open so you can ask me questions. Thank you!

I have released new updates to the twtxt.el client.

• New feature: View and interact with threads.
• Optimisation of ordering for long feeds.
• Minor fixes.

In the next version you will be able to see all your mentions.

Enjoy!

#emacs #twtxt #twtxtel

@eapl.me There are several points that I like, but I want to highlight number 7. https://text.eapl.mx/a-few-ideas-for-a-next-twtxt-version #twtxt

I show you the website of Baldo, my little black cat (the pocket panther). Website: https://baldo.cat/ Twtxt: https://baldo.cat/twtxt.txt #catsoftwtxt

Question to the twtxt veterans, are we experiencing an explosion of clients or is this a regular occurrence?

I have released new updates to the twtxt.el client.

• Markdown to Org mode (you need to install Pandoc).
• Centred column.
• Added new logo.
• Added text helper.

The new version I will try to finish the visual thread. You still can't see the thread yet. #emacs #twtxt #twtxtel

@prologic Looks great with the new logo. @aelaraji Next release will convert markdown to org syntax if you have Pandoc command installed 😎. Mentions are org links, for example.

@arne @eapl_en I'm sorry if I don't respond to a reply. I don't have a notification system for mentions at the moment. The work is manual!

@aelaraji Can you give me examples of hashes that you have detected wrong between Emacs client and twtxt.net? Perhaps there is some character, some space, that is creating the discrepancy.

I really like the concept of "twt". It's the perfect blend of txt and twtxt. An abbreviated form. Even though it's the name given to posts, I personally find it very nice. #twtxt

Today is an important day. We have a new extension: Direct message 🪇🗨️🚀🥳❤️ https://twtxt.dev/exts/direct-message.html #twtxt

What would you like the new twtxt logo to be? Comments: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/twtxt.dev/issues/9#issuecomment-18960

Yesterday I was doing a lot of research on how #hyperdrive and the #holepunch project work. Would it be possible to use it to make #twtxt an easier gateway for new users? Could we stop using web servers? My conclusion: We would end up being a #nostr. On the one hand it would become more complex to use, it would force the user to have software installed, and on the other hand the community would need a central proxy to make the routes accessible via HTTP. In other words, it's not a good idea. However, it's an AMAZING technology. I want to start playing with it.

I have uploaded a new version of #twtxtel 🥳. It's now possible to view profiles, either your own or others. #twtxt #emacs @prologic @xuu

I'm realizing that my performance bottleneck is @prologic ! It is actually calculating the hash to make the replicas, and specifically users with very long feeds 😂 . I'm seriously thinking about enabling replies via configuration.

I have infinite scroll now! I can finally focus on replies and mentions 😋 #twtxtel #twtxt #emacs

I have managed to make the fetching of feeds asynchronous. To do this I have set up a small system of task queue. All requests are executed at the same time! 🚀 https://codeberg.org/andros/twtxt-el/src/branch/develop #twtxtel #emacs

I would like to make another proposal to the community, to discuss it calmly: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/twtxt.dev/issues/9 #twtxt

I want to share a little idea for a new extension with the goal of adding direct messages in #twtxt https://github.com/tanrax/twtxt-direct-message-extension

Hola desde Hispa Emacs!! @cats

@prologic Is it possible to make Pull Request on twtxt.dev ?

I'm sharing new developments on the client. I now have a more stable timeline. The first version will appear in the next few weeks. #emacs #twtxt

This is the first screenshot, a simple timeline I'm using to check the fields. Now I'm working on some details: avatar cache, relative dates, simple thread, etc. #emacs #twtxt

@prologic Is it possible to interact with twtxt.net from outside? For example, an search API

@bender Sorry if I don't reply to you. I don't have any mention notification system... at the moment... Thanks for the suggestion and for fix the error 😄

@prologic Do you have any data about the #twtxt health? How many people are currently using twtxt?

How can I add feeds to https://feeds.twtxt.net/feeds ? It this possible?

My cat, @terron has his own twtxt account. Would you follow him? #catsoftwtxt

Thanks @prologic !

Is there any rule or information about images in the twtxt specification?

Thanks @bender for the feedback. I fixed and expanded the article. I'm sorry for my poor interaction. Furthermore, I'm reading and writing while programming a client in Emacs.

I would like to share my lastest article about #twtxt on my blog: https://programadorwebvalencia.com/twtxt-la-red-social-en-texto-plano-descentralizada-y-minimalista/ . Attention! It is a Spanish

Hi Twtxt
