plans for weewiki: a zettelkasten-like interface, a microblogging platform inspired by !twtxt, and some utilities for managing collections of SQLar archives. #updates #halfbakedideas

@lucididiot@tilde.town thank you for the backup! i agree that wiki is in dire need of some maintenance but that hardly seems like a reason to just up and delete it…

@vain@www.uninformativ.de NOICE. I’m gonna read it later today when i get out of work. also Re: bilingual blogging, i do english and spanish but i mostly try to keep the contents separated

@xandkar@xandkar.net I’m going to give it a shot. always interested in trying new clients

Thinkin I might quit twtxt and gemini, tidy up a bit,just use tilde club web, or gopher.

@vain@www.uninformativ.de your twtxt setup looks nice. It looks like what i’d like to do in some time when i’m better at Go

@vain@www.uninformativ.de :O nice catch! please tell me you’re gonna post lots of screenshots somewhere?

@birb@twtxt.net good mAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAArning, my king

@prologic@twtxt.net @birb@twtxt.net It’s a bit difficult for me since i’m mostly maintaining my off-pod file. I wonder if this reply will reach either of you.

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t automate anything but I have sensors in every room to warn me if the humidity is too high and one in the fridge to warn if it’s too warm/cold via xmpp message. It’s working pretty well and was not expensive. I have fhem running on a raspberry pi which also serves other services.

@birb@twtxt.net are you Questionable Content’s Yelling Bird in disguise? hi there

@vain@www.uninformativ.de nice. i’m gonna get on that, then.

@vain@www.uninformativ.de huh, i guess i still fully haven’t figured out followings yet. also hi, nice to see a familiar face around here.

@prologic@twtxt.net to answer some of your previous questions, i’m using txtnish for my timeline and user controls, and plain twtxt for posting. the alternative to that would be setting up a bunch of shell aliases or small scripts. or making my own client in Go. There’s a thought… ;)

@prologic@twtxt.net hello. i didn’t realize you had written to me, i didn’t have you on my follow list yet.

i post through twtxt but manage my followers through txtnish… this doesn’t feel right

i didn’t think clients would be necessary for something like twtxt and yet here we are

@prologic@twtxt.net (#https://twtxt.net/search?tag=tsvhqdq OK. Im upgrading my tools. twtxt works pretty well inside an Emacs shell window…

@prologic@twtxt.net I’\“ve thought through the git issue a bit. Comments on https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/issues/38

in the original twtxt your URL is your identity. No need for anyone outside your control to do account managment. One reason I’ll likely be sticking with command line. But, great work

FWIW, I put up a quick blog last night about using twtxt command line https://eludom.github.io/blog/hello_twtxt/

What flavor or regexp? I tried here https://regexr.com/ with both PCRE and JavaScript and neither seems quite right. I’m relatively good with regexps, but they tend to be write-only :-/

yes. I read that. Nice post. Brave browser at least has trouble with formatting. The regexp got lost when renederd. Eww (emacs text browser) doees just fine with it :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net I tried to sign up @gmj@www.port111.com on twtxt.net, but it said it was already signed up … maybe beause of my command line posts? Any way I can claim gmj?

@prologic@twtxt.net what is the exact syntax neeed for threads to work in the subject, e.g. will (#tsvhqdq) do it? The whole … (#tsvhqdq) thing seems like a bit of overkill. Too many characters.

as the person who motivated CompuServe’s USENET gateway https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1994-10-07-9410070309-story.html I’ve see what happens when the unwashed masses are turned loose in techie playgrounds

One very real problem to be aware of is “Eternal September” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September

one problme I’m seeing already is that the “micro” part is loosing out. Things are routinely getting longer than 140 characters

@prologic@twtxt.net I will probably stick with command line client just to make sure it keeps working

I keep meaning to post using twtxt but I tend to forget. Not sure why, because it’s easy and fun

@prologic@twtxt.net and the fact that I just used /bin/ed to fix spelling before pushing :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net also the lack of a login and complete decntralization is a big win.

@prologic@twtxt.net twtxt is so simple one could read with netcat, cat and tail. I like that.

@prologic@twtxt.net For now I think I will stay with primitave tools.

Thanks @prologic@twtxt.net

if you thought emails were great at getting stuff lost, wait til you check out this thing called twtxt

@eli_oat@txt.eli.li happy to be an enabler :) I keep finding new uses for Janet as well! It has proven to be a remarkable extension language for !weewiki.

Hey @prologic@twtxt.net! still figuring out how to reply to people. I’m based in the New England in the US. What about you?

added a twtxt activity section on the !monolith page

A fork of twtxtc, a #twtxt client in C: [[https://github.com/neauoire/twtxtc]] #links

twtxt, I saw a Renault 5 today, it passed my home, its indicator was flashing… sacre bleu… you don’t see a R5 every day

well, I missed my one-year #twtxt anniversary by a few days. yay?

@eli_oat@txt.eli.li Oh my! Ended up down a fraidyc.at rabbit hole! Thanks! (I think ;-) )
