For example I noticed in this thread, someone, me, and you, and now it’s just a bad @-mention mentioned Soren Peter with a bad link :/

This also just reminds me of the other problems that exist:
- bad mentions.
- knowing whether someone will you’ve @-mentioned will even see your reply at all.

@mckinley@twtxt.net I think we just need a way of surfacing this information better for both users and operators? 🤔

@prologic Your position doesn't make any sense: it's closing down and arbitrarily limiting the use of the Twtxt protocol. One more reason not to use https://twtxt.net/

@mckinley@twtxt.net Yeah this is what was being “cleaned up”
Yo be honest I don’t think there is a good solution IMO

@prologic Why do we need to avoid posting to the void? That's pretty much what twtxt was made for. I don't like the "Legacy feed" terminology, either. I support the delisting of ciberlandia.pt but I think this change is heading in a bad direction.

Ex-White House Cyber Policy Director: Microsoft is a National Security Risk
This week the Register spoke to former senior White House cyber policy director A.J. Grotto — who complained it was hard to get even slight concessions from Microsoft:
"If you go back to the SolarWinds episode from a few years ago ... [Microsoft] was essentially up-selling logging capability to federal agencies" instead of ma ... ⌘ Read more

@dfaria@twtxt.net Also, I don’t really care whether you continue to use my pod or not frankly.
One more reason not to use https://twtxt.net/
negative comments like this are completely unconstructive and have no basis in merit. If you have issues with the way I administer my pod, speak up, provide alternatives. If you have good technical suggestions for Twtxt/Yarn, we’re all ears. We are only trying (or attempt to try) to make things better for all, which as you can appreciate is a hard thing to do.
Next time, please leave your constructive criticisms at home. No-one forces you to use my pod (for free).

Been clearing out my pod a bit and blocking unwanted domains that are basically either a) just noise and/or b) are just 1-way (whose authors never reply or are otherwise unaware of the larger ecosystem)

@dfaria@twtxt.net And btw, even if I block a feed or whole domain, it doesn’t stop you from following. it just removes it from the “Discover” view.

I have been up, and ready to go for hours. Partner is still in bed. She takes such a long time to wake up on weekends! Past noon already, and we need to get food for the elders, and come back to tidy up things to get ready for the next weekly cycle.

@mckinley@twtxt.net Do you have an alternate proposal? What we want to avoid really (if possible) is the idea of “1-ay posting” or “posting to the void”. As an obvious example, the idea of syncing your Mastoon toots to Twtxt twts that you never see replies to is well umm just silly 🤣 and thus creates unwanted noise as it’s just like talking to a “brick wall” 😥
