📣 ACTION REQUIRED: Hey folks 👋 For those of you whom are using the Twtxt App either via the Hosted option or on your own twtd instnace or via Github/Gitea or any other publishing backend (doesn’t amtter). Please read.

Please open the app and you should be prompted to save your recovery code for your device. This basically is all of your settings, follows, etc in the app itself. This is synced to the Origin everytime you make a change, and also stored on-device. This is what makes it possible to sync your setting across services, move to another device, etc.

Please save a copy of the recovery code somewhere. This is only your only way to recover your settings.

Thank you 🙏

I will be monitoring the server logs for the next ~28 days, after that orphaned Namespaces will start to get cleaned up, especially ones that have never bothered to care about recovery.

IMPORTANT: Treat the re oery code like a password.

@david@daiwei.me Good point ! 👌

quick correction on that cleanup timing 🙏 it’s not 28 days. nothing gets deleted for the first 30 days at all (observe-only), and after that only setups unused for ~6 months that also never saved a recovery code. saved a code = safe forever 👍

and @david@daiwei.me your rename shipped 🙌 it’s “Generate recovery code” now (you were right — mints a fresh one each press), + it asks before replacing an existing code so you don’t nuke the one you saved 😅
