↳ In-reply-to » 💡 I had this crazy idea (or is it?) last night while thinking about Twtxt and Yarn.social 😅 There are two things I think that could be really useful additions to the yarnd UI/UX experience (for those that use it) and as "client" features (not spec changes). The two ideas are quite simple:

@kate@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Glad you think so! 👌 My goal with Yarn.social has always been to provide the best (best that I can anyway!) truly decentralised (slow) social experience that uses the Twtxt format under the hood 😅

This expands the usefulness of Twtxt / Yarn.social to:

  • Sharing small posts
  • Sharing links
  • Sharing media
  • Having long conversations
  • Voting on topics, opinions or decisions
  • RSVPing to virtual or physical events

  • Voting – a way to cast, collect a vote on a decision, topic or opinion.
  • RSVP – a way to “rsvp” to a virtual (pr physical) event.

Both would use “plain text” on top of the way we already use Twtxt today and clients would render an appropriate UI/UX.

↳ In-reply-to » I asked ChatGPT what it knows about Twtxt 😂 And surprisingly it's rather accurate:

Timeline of Evolution of Twtxt/Yarn.social:

  • 2016 – Twtxt created by John Downey: plain text + HTTP = minimalist microblogging
  • 2017–2019 – Community builds CLI tools, but adoption remains niche
  • 2020 – Yarn.social launched by @prologic@twtxt.net with federation, threading, UI
  • 2021–2023 – Pods sync, user mentions, blocking, search, and media support added
  • 2024+ – Yarn.social becomes the reference Twtxt platform, with active federated pods

I asked ChatGPT what it knows about Twtxt 😂 And surprisingly it’s rather accurate:

Twtxt is a minimalist, decentralized microblogging format introduced by John Downey in 2016. It uses plain text files served over HTTP—no accounts, databases, or APIs.
In 2020, James Mills (@prologic@twtxt.net) launched Yarn.social, an extended, federated implementation with user discovery, threads, mentions, and a full web UI.
Both share the same .twtxt.txt format but differ in complexity and social features.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev I don’t see any “fighting” here. This is just good experimentation. Unfortunately there hasn’t really been enough time or effort by other “client authors” yet, me especially as I’ve been super busy with ya’ know my “day job” that pays the bills and refactoring yarnd to use a new and shiny and much better SqliteCache 🤣 – I certainly don’t think your efforts are wasted at all. I would however like @doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt encourage you to look at the work we’ve done as a community (which was also driven out of the Yarn.social / Twtxt community years back).

** leibovitz **
Folks what that haunt me (positive) on the Fediverse may have seen me sharing progress shots from this, but here I am, and I have made another camera application for the web. Leibovitz combines a lot that I learned making my other camera applications into one, hopefully less clunky package.

With leibovitz you can either take new photos, or upload any image file and apply filters to it. The UX to toggle between the two modes is … ⌘ Read more

↳ In-reply-to » I think I should try self-hosting some Mastodon thingy again.

@prologic@twtxt.net In all seriousness: Don’t worry, I’m not going to host some Fediverse thingy at the moment, probably never will. 😅

But I do use it quite a lot. Although, I don’t really use it as a social network (as in: following people). I follow some tags like #retrocomputing, which fills my timeline with interesting content. If there was a traditional web forum or mailing list or even a usenet group that covered this topic, I’d use that instead. But that’s all (mostly) dead by now. ☹️

Un système de santé plein de (mauvaises) surprises

La réalité est cependant plus contrastée et ces colonnes se font parfois l’écho de ces petites bizarreries qui font tout […] ⌘ Read more

Show HN: Seven39, a social media app that is only open for 3 hours every evening
I built this site as a quick test if a time boxed social media experience feels better than an endless one. So far I’ve just been using it with friends and it feels nice, but it seems like it is time to bring it to a larger audience.

Let me know what you think! It is just based on EST for now, sorry.

Delicious Foods That Were Born from Mistakes and Stubbornness
History is filled with inventions born out of necessity, but some of the world’s most famous foods exist simply because someone felt petty. Whether it was a battle against big corporations, a middle finger to social norms, or just a chef refusing to admit they made a mistake, these foods exist solely because someone wanted […]

Ten of the Most Outlandish Influencers on Social Media
As any social media user knows, influencers are everywhere. Usually, they pester us with adverts and monetized content. But some take a stranger approach. These bizarre influencers refuse to fit the usual mold. Instead, they have built a following from their unexpected, genuinely original ideas. They are the true originals of the social media world: […]
