SOME PEOPLE HAVE POINTED OUT THAT WRITING APPS IN POSTSCRIPT IS SANE-ISH. THIS IS TRUE. IT’S HARD TO COME UP WITH COMPARABLE SITUATIONS THAT ARE MORE ABSURD, BECAUSE WE COLLECTIVELY DID THE ABSOLUTE WORST THING AND THEN CONVINCED OURSELVES IT WAS OK.

Web application design is like a generation of people looked at that text adventure written in postscript and said LETS WRITE ALL FIRST PERSON SHOOTERS IN POSTSCRIPT EMBEDDED IN SELF-MODIFYING LATEX DOCUMENTS FOREVER

If you cannot use it to trivially put a pixel at an X,Y coordinate, YOU SHOULD NOT WRITE A COMPLEX UI IN IT, EXCEPT AS A JOKE.

@tfurrows@grex.org It’s not a hard limit, most alternative clients do not care about the amount of characters you’re posting. As long as you don’t write a novel and it still fits on a line… :)

thanks @pete@petedeas.co.uk. This probably means I should write my yearly blog post ;)

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net @kas@enotty.dk #twtxt’s quietness is actually something I enjoy about it. I care a lot more about signal-to-noise ratio than I care about the regular activity. It’s also a really fun thing to write clients for to play around with new libraries or languages.

It’s easy to talk to other timelines: Write a letter, then read in it everything you didn’t write

@trqx@0x1A4.1337.cx write a fun numpop clone https://tx.god.jp/code/cnumpop/files.html. I got 590 points with the seed 1493407649, can anyone beat that? :)

Did you know that you can write on the backs of tweets? Few screens support this though, you’d probably have to take yours apart.

“as I write this, I feel the spores maturing under my skin. I know it’s not going to hurt, but what will I do about my favorite human

I have the feeling that writing twtxt clients will become my prefered test case to learn new languages… :)

@phil@philmcclure.duckdns.org I can’t imagine a simpler time format than rfc3339. I would be fine with just using utc or unix time, but i don’t think most people could write that without a client… :)

I recently tried to write a command like client to GNU social, but after reading the specs on ActivityStreams, Webfinger, PubsubHubbub and Salmon i soon lost interest… :)

“you’re so deep in the closet, if I went to fetch you they’d write a book about my adventures and call it chronicles of narnia”

I just noticed that i still can win bullseye if write a short tweet for any long tweet i published. Maybe i have to rethink the game… :)

Someone wants to write a vim syntax file for #twtxt? :)

Maybe we should just release the spec and not our clients so that any users is required to write a client.

twtxt: The only social network where every new user starts by writing it’s own client.

@tx@0x1A4.1337.cx But be prepared that you terminal is b0rked! In what language are you writing your client?

should you suspect you’re caught in a story, do a genre test: something that is completely out of genre and which nobody would write
