Is it me, or Gmail’s web interface is going down the drain? Using Safari—my default browser—often takes two, or three clicks to open an email. If it weren’t because its search is amazing, I would never visit its web interface.

Do I need to do a search and replace on my feed to fix old entries? Thanks for quick fix!
@adi@f.adi.onl Yes, it did—at least I don’t see the same issue as before on twtxt.net. Weird, as it was never an issue on other pods. 🤷🏻♂️

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com Hmm… the empty line needs to be left alone.
Why is Startpage “suspending” me at least once a day? Is it my content blocker? I don’t care, I’m switching to Brave Search.

This, for me, points to the arbitrariness of the“desktop” as a prime metaphor in computer user interfaces.
It made sense at the birth of contemporary computing — business suits and what not — but maybe there’s a new paradigm worth explori … ⌘ Read more
Jérôme Poisson: Libervia progress note 2021-W38
Hello,
it’s time for a new progress note. The work is currently focused on ActivityPub Gateway, and progress has been done on pubsub cache search and the base component.
Pubsub Cache Full-Text SearchNext to the pubsub cache implementation, it was necessary to have a good way to search among items.
So far, Libervia was doing pubsub search using pubsub service’s capabilities, and notably the [XEP-0431](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0 … ⌘ Read more

Chatcontrol, searching messages for illegal content
On July 6 the EU parliament voted yes to a proposal from the EU\

to electronic communication. Its current basis is the … ⌘ Read more

My searx instance has changed domains
For those that use my SearX instance (which was formerly searx.lukesmith.xyz, I have now relocated it to searx.cedars.xyz, so if you use it as a default search engine, remember to change its url.
For those who don’t know what SearX is, it’s a metasearch engine that polls whatever search engines you want and aggregates the results. It is free software that can be installed by anyone on any server.

Thoughts on Searching for Coach Taylor by Mindy Kaling ⌘ Read more…
Sure. I think search, if it’s going to exist, should be the client’s responsibility. But I also value the readability of the raw twtxt file a lot more than y’all do.
@jlj@twt.nfld.uk “@niplav (#xvbnyma) Fascinating. :-) Suspect #RMS would have a violent physical reaction – accompanied by some salty language – after even a moment’s contemplation of life under such complicity. :-D” -> He is a very unreasonable man <3
I actually haven’t yet, it’s just easy enough to manually prepend the subject for now, if I skip the search URL. 🤣 I’ll do it properly eventually.
@prologic@twtxt.net Vim, and it’s really not that awful.
@prologic@twtxt.net 36 characters left makes it rough.
@darch@twtxt.net Just inline images, they wrap like text.

@adi@twtxt.net Thanks, man. I’ll take a look.
@prologic@twtxt.net Logs say it’s just you :)
@prologic@twtxt.net 36% of requests since I enabled logs
@prologic@twtxt.net Exactly, but that reduces the argument for URLs in the post. The client should figure out how to search based on the hashtag.
@prologic@twtxt.net @anth Sounds like a good idea. The hash to conv/search url should stay local to a pod.
@prologic@twtxt.netYes, I think tags should just be #foo, and let the client figure out searching if it cares.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yes, I often read the raw messages. But more to the point, the simplicity of the format is the bulk of the appeal.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de No argument that threading is an improvement. But I think (#hash) does that, and I think figuring out how to search should mostly be up to the client.
I don’t have any issue with the (foo) subjects, it’s the proliferation of the (foo url) tags. They’re just too long and ugly.
@jlj@twt.nfld.uk “@niplav (#4qeibma) Hadn’t heard of this; thanks for the tip! Been getting lost in your text reviews; the Benatar piece piqued my interest: I’d been reading a critique of his earlier work – in Overall’s Why Have Children? – that really wasn’t up to scratch. Now I’m reading about pure replicators, which is a new concept, to me. :-)” -> Nice :-) Looking over my text reviews, they’re not quite finished (especially the Benatar one), so take it with a grain of salt
@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve just never had it be a rewarding experience.
