Loqi twtxt is a decentralised, minimalist microblogging service for hackers https://indieweb.org/twtxt
# prologic jmac oh hahaha that was a joke?
# prologic I didn't get it :(
# prologic jmac yes you are mostly right
# prologic its a web app/client
# prologic and I also host a public/free instance of it as a "demo" if you will
# prologic but anyone is welcome to use it (I do now as well obviously)
# prologic dogfood your own crap oet all that :)
# prologic So yes I'm basically just attempting to revitalise twtxt here
# prologic and make it easy for non-techies to use
# prologic my next plans for the software tiself are to build out an API and builtin registry
# prologic and then a nice CLI client to go along with
# prologic [10:15:33] <jmac> IIRC, the very first message ever posted to Twitter was "Just setting up my twittr" <-- Ahh I see :)
# prologic I missed all that becuase I was never really big on this whole social media hype
# prologic still aren't :)
# prologic I've known about IndieWeb for a while now :)
# prologic just not actively participated per se
# prologic I do write a lot of self-hosted apps though: https://gist.github.com/prologic/c165403fb6ac07c16dc9fd6eeb8efbd2
# prologic I'll do something more interesting with one day :)
# prologic For now I just write OSS stuff like this, host public/free versions of as demos or free use by anyone and hope for the best :)
# prologic I also use what I write/publish :)

# [tb] Think my next main side project here now that I've h-carded and wikified is going to be making a micropub server to publish things to my Hugo repo
# [tb] Nice to see I'm not the first one to do something like that https://github.com/skpy/micropub
# prologic [tb] you any good at Go?
# prologic s/at/with
# [tb] I'd say I have a passable level of proficiency with it—due to projects at work its become my main target language to get better at this year
# prologic Nice :)
# prologic interested in adding micro.pub support to twtxt.net with me? :)
# prologic I also want to add IndieAuth support as well
# [tb] Ah perhaps once I've gotten a bit more done on bootstrapping my site 😄
# [tb] Since I've been working with Go enough at work also I think I'm going to do most of my IndieWeb projects in Ruby
# [tb] Get back to my roots and all
# prologic Ahh I see :)
# prologic No worries then
# prologic I'm looking for collaborators on this project
# prologic its live but it still needs work and there are things I want to add to it

# 
[tantek] On another note (so to speak), apparently if you’re a writer for The New Yorker, and you drunk tweetstorm, you end up interviewed by WaPo: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/07/19/susan-orlean-drunk-twitter-interview/#click=https://t.co/AyogWDdU0e
# prologic [tantek] Thanks I will!
# 
KartikPrabhu [tantek]: what's that "#click=" in the URL?
beko joined the channel
# KartikPrabhu hmm
# [tb] Oh that's a Twitter shortlink that just resolves to the full URL on WaPo there
# [tb] Maybe they use the `click` param to track the referer
[tw2113] joined the channel
# prologic Hmm 🤔I think I have a bug with some cookie/session handling
# prologic The cookie's MaxAge/Expiry is set for 1d but I keep getting logged out effectively and I'm not sure why
# prologic How do you normally debug this?

# prologic Just implemented #7 (https://github.com/priologic/twtxt/issues/7) and Page 1/1244 of 62187 Tweets <-- 😲
# prologic This is from my own timeline
# prologic I basically just tried to follow every twtxt feed I could get my hadns on
# prologic Plus in addition to creating twtxt.net I also created (didn't mention this) feeds.twtxt.net
# prologic I now use this as my primary news readers (used to use commafeed.com)

# 
[chrisaldrich] Zegnat++ for finding /Bibliogram. I'm going to experiment around with their feeds of Instagram content. Planning to check if I can get it to work with my IFTTT to micropub set up.
# [chrisaldrich] Zegnat I had tried using your youtube feed patterns with that, but it turns out they have the publish date of the video for published and individual users' changes to videos are given an "updated" tag, so those feeds never trigger IFTTT/Zapier things....
# [chrisaldrich] Do they show up in the correct date/time order?
# [chrisaldrich] some readers may not care, but for some of the automation things, they use the published date, which does you no good when it's something that's 5 years old, for example
# [chrisaldrich] I need to double check Zapier as it may have something to target the "updated" portion of the feed. IFTTT definitely didn't.
# Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "RSS Bridge" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "RSS Bridge is ____", a sentence describing the term)
# Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "RSS-Bridge" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "RSS-Bridge is ____", a sentence describing the term)
# Zegnat RSS-Bridge is a project that strives to give sites [[feeds]] even if they do not offer those themselves. https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge
# [chrisaldrich] Not a bad idea, but that just adds to the growing list of dependencies for moving the data from one silo to my own site... and also may decrease the amount of meta data as well. 😜

# [michael_lewis] [Murray] I've stripped query strings from indexed URLs now, so your /search/?query=&filter=Technology etc. aren't getting indexed now, which makes your index look much cleaner. The query string elimination is a global setting for now, but if I find there are sites that actually need it I can make it configurable per site. Your API is at https://searchmysite.net/api/v1/search/theadhocracy.co.uk?q=* and you can filter by keywords/tags via e.
# [michael_lewis] via https://searchmysite.net/api/v1/search/theadhocracy.co.uk?q=keywords:*tech* (noting that I may move filters to a separate parameter, e.g. qf, as per the main search).
