I think because it still inserted the wrong alias in my following list:

# follow = manton@bridge.twtxt.net https://bridge.twtxt.net/twtxt/remote/d428c49928a4a0d1.txt

I’m not currently sure why this is tab-completing incorrectly hmmm 🧐

Testing 1 2 3 @manton@twtxt.net

I wound up running 2 out of 3 of the one-shots, both Halloween games based on Ravenloft / Curse of Strahd, and both rousing successes (for the players, not so much for Strahd).

Since I’m on something of a gaming kick, I think I’m going to try and finish plotting out the rest of the fae adventure I’m running for my kids, while also (hopefully) finishing my super secret astral gaming project.

Can I do it? Stay tuned and find out!

For those curious, the new Twtxt <-> ActivityPub bridge I’m building (bidirectional) simply requires three things:

1. You register your Twtxt feed to the bridge: https://bridge.twtxt.net
   
2. You verify that you in fact own/control the feed by putting the verification code somewhere on/in your feed (doesn’t matter where or how)
   
3. You proxy/forward requests for /.well-known/webfinger to the Bridge bridge.twtxt.net.
   

I’m still testing through and ironing out bugs 🐛 Please be patient! 🙏

technically I can put the Bridge verificaiton code in my feed’s metadata so no-one really ever sees or notices it 🤔 Maybe I’ll add a first-class button/field thingy in yarnd so users can “register their feed” straight from their pod? 🤔
