@ My point was that the suggested syntax for extending mentions to point to a specific message (`@`) and having location based treading this way, might not break older clients, since they might just igonore the last value within the brackets.
2025-05-05T14:31:14+02:00 — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#22qxisq)
@ About the URL, since it no longer used for hashing there might be no need to change it. I agree that we keep all the parts that already are out there for the most parts. Instead of a contact field you could also just use links like: `link = Email mailto:user@example.dk` or `link = Signal https://signal.me/sthF4raI5Lg_ybpJwB1sOptDla4oU7p[...] `
2025-05-05T12:16:35+02:00 — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#22qxisq)
@ Thanks for consolidating a lot of good ideas. Especially how you have deiced to just extend the mention syntax for location-based treads. This might even be backward compatible with older (pre-yarn) clients.
What about using `Z` for UTC `+00:00`- is that allowed in your specs?
Regarding `url = ` I would suggest to only allow one and the maybe add `url_old =` or `url_alt =` !?
I'm still not a fan of a DM feature, even thou it helps that i have now been split out into a separate feed file. Instead if would suggest a `contact = ` field for where people can put an email or other id/link for an established chat protocol like signal or matrix.

If we don't keep insisting on simplify and "The beauty of twtxt is, you put one file on your server, done. One.", then people should just use ActivityPub-based software like Mastodon, PixelFed, etc. which are getting a lot of attention and uses migrating to the fediverse from meta/x here in Denmark over the last couple of months.

@ I say we should find a way to support mentions with only url, no nick, as per the original spec.
- For `@` we already got support
- For `@` the posting client should expand it to `@`, if not then the reading client should just render it as `@nick` with no link.
- For `@` the sending client should try to expand it to `@`, if not then the reading client should try to find or construct a nick base on:
1. Look in twtxt.txt for a `nick = `
2. Use (sub)domain from URL
3. Use folder or file name from URL

I've implemented [Use only nick as handle if nick and domain is the same · sorenpeter/timeline@8c12444](https://github.com/sorenpeter/timeline/commit/8c124444597c1671a7a8164acf034cc697803f6c)
See it live at:
- nick = domain: https://darch.dk/timeline/profile?url=https://eapl.me/tw.txt
- nick ≠ domain: https://darch.dk/timeline/profile?url=https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt
- no nick, use domain: https://darch.dk/timeline/profile?url=https://akkartik.name/twtxt.txt
I'm not sure I like the leading `@` thou...
2024-12-25T11:08:43Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#2zve52q)
What should the advantage be to `nick = _`compared to just not defining a nick and let the client use the domain as the handle?
What is not intuitive is that you put something in the nick field that is not to be taken literary. The special meaning of `_` is only clean if you read the documentation, compared to having something in nick that makes sense in the current context of the twtxt.txt.
2024-12-25T09:40:24Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#gc55n3a)
@ So the user should then set `nick = _@domain.tld` in the twtxt.txt?
It seems more intuitive and userfriendly to just use: `nick = domain.tld` and have then convention for clients to render the handle as **@domain.tld** instead of **@domain.tld@domain.tld**
For a feed with no nick defined (eg. https://akkartik.name/twtxt.txt) it will also be simpler and make more sense to just use the domain as the nick and render it as **@domain.tld**
2024-12-24T17:04:52Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#6qodp6q)
Are we talking about profile view heading, heading of posts or inline mentions? 
In yarnd I recall there is a setting for changing the heading of posts, but not for the two others as of yet.
I like the hover option for inline mentions. For the other places some like how yarnd does it in two line or " **nick** _(domain.tld)_ " could also work.
2024-12-24T10:52:38Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#6qodp6q)
@ A way to have a more bluesky'ish handles in twtxt could be to take inspiration from [Bridgy Fed](https://fed.brid.gy/docs#translate) and say: `If NICK = DOMAIN then only show @DOMAIN`
So instead of **@eapl.me@eapl.me** it will just be **@eapl.me**
And it event seem that it will not break webfinger lookup: https://webfinger.net/lookup/?resource=%40darch.dk (at least not for how I've implemented webfinger on my sever for a single user;)
2024-12-19T16:23:38Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#6qodp6q)
I've started a draft over at: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/twtxt.dev/src/branch/main/exts/webfinger.md
2024-12-19T10:29:38Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#6qodp6q)
@ maybe you meant to specify twtxt as a type similar to ActivityPub's `application/activity+json` in https://webfinger.net/lookup/?resource=sorenpeter@norrebro.space
```
{
"rel": "self",
"type": "application/activity+json",
"href": "https://norrebro.space/users/sorenpeter"
},
```
Then it would also make sense to define a [Link Relations](https://webfinger.net/rel) but should that then link to something like `https://twtxt.dev/webfinger.html` where we can describe the spec?
2024-12-19T09:48:43Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#6qodp6q)
@ Well I just mirrored [yarnd's JSON](https://webfinger.net/lookup/?resource=prologic%40twtxt.net) in my webfinger [endpoint](https://github.com/sorenpeter/timeline/blob/main/_webfinger-endpoint/.well-known/webfinger/index.php) and [lookup](https://github.com/sorenpeter/timeline/blob/main/partials/webfinger_lookup.php), so not much else to do for standardization.
And for people who don't like PHP you can always just go with [Added WebFinger support to my email address using one rewrite rule and one static file.](https://gist.github.com/aaronpk/5846789) or simply putting a static JSON in place for `.well-know/webfinger`
2024-12-19T09:06:45Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#6qodp6q)
I like the cleaness and indiewebness of using just domains for handles/shorthands similar to blusky, but the situations with more users on the same domain and that people in the fediverse (threads too?) are already familiar with the syntax speaks for webfinger. And since we already got support for webfinger in both yarnd and timeline it makes sense to stick with it.

The .log is just a simple append each request. The idea with the .cvs is to have it tally up how many request there have been from each client as a way to avoid having the log file grow too big. And that you can open the .cvs as a spreadsheet and have an easy overview and filtering options.

Right now it just adds every request to a growing log file, but I have also been working on a way to analyse it, so it only saves the time of the latest request.
I'm not sure how to make it part of timeline itself, since it requeses that you redirect/rewrite from `twtAgent.php` to the acctual `twtxt.txt`
Help with making Timeline send proper User Agents to others would be much appreciated:)

@ The tagline of Timeline is "a single user twtxt/yarn pod" not just a yarn pod. Similar to GNU/Linux. When we came up with the concept of Yarn Social it was a way to rebrand twtxt with the extensions that makes conversations like this possible.

@ here are my replies (somewhat similar to Lyse's and James')
1. Metadata in twts: Key=value is too complicated for non-hackers and hard to write by hand. So if there is a need then we should just use #NSFS or the alt-text file in markdown image syntax `` if something is NSFW
2. IDs besides datetime. When you edit a twt then you should preserve the datetime if location-based addressing should have any advantages over content-based addressing. If you change the timestamp the its a new post. Just like any other blog cms.
3. Caching, Yes all good ideas, but that is more a task for the clients not the serving of the twtxt.txt files.
4. Discovery: User-agent for discovery can become better. I'm working on a wrapper script in PHP, so you don't need to go to Apaches log-files to see who fetches your feed. But for other Gemini and gopher you need to relay on something else. That could be using [my webmentions for twtxt suggestion](http://darch.dk/mentions-twtxt), or simply defining an email metadata field for letting a person know you follow their feed. Interesting read about why WebMetions might be a bad idea. Twtxt being much simple that a full featured IndieWeb sites, then a lot of the concerns does not apply here. But that's the issue with any open inbox. This is hard to solve without some form of (centralized or community) spam moderation.
5. Support more protocols besides http/s. Yes why not, if we can make clients that merge or diffident between the same feed server by multiples URLs
6. Languages: If the need is big then make a separate feed. I don't mind seeing stuff in other langues as it is low. You got translating tool if you need to know whats going on. And again when there is a need for easier switching between posting to several feeds, then it's about building clients with a UI that makes it easy. No something that should takes up space in the format/protocol.
7. Emojis: I'm not sure what this is about. Do you want to use emojis as avatar in CLI clients or it just about rendering emojis?

@ How hard would it be to implement something like `(#<2024-10-25T17:15:50Z https://www.uninformativ.de/twtxt.txt>)`in jenny as a replacement for `(#twthash)` and have it not care about if is http(s) or a g-protocol?
2024-10-25T17:48:31Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#lnlbnsq)
@ Speed is an issue for the client software, not the format itself, but yes I agree that it makes the most sense to append post to the end of the file. I'm referring to the definition that it's the first `url =` in the file that is the one that has to be used for the twthash computation, which is a too arbitrary way of defining something that breaks treading time and time again. And this is the case for not using url+date+message = twthash.
2024-10-24T17:33:24Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt
**Simplified twtxt** - I want to suggest some dogmas or commandments for twtxt, from where we can work our way back to how to implement different feature like replies/treads:
0. It's a text file, so you must be able to write it by hand (ie. no app logic) and read by eye. If you edit a post you change the content not the timestamp. Otherwise it will be considered a new post.
2. The order of lines in a twtxt.txt must not hold any significant. The file is a container and each line an atomic piece of information. You should be able to run `sort` on a twtxt.txt and it should still work.
1. Transport protocol should not matter, as long as the file served is the same. Http and https are preferred, so it is suggested that feed served via Gopher or Gemini also provide http(s).
3. Do we need more commandments?

Yes, URL can be considered ugly, but they work and are understandable by both humans and machines. And its trivial for any client to hide the URLs used as reference in replies/treading.
Webfinger can be an add-on to help lookup people, and it can be made independent of the nick by just serving the same json regardless of the nick as [people do with static sites](https://garrido.io/notes/adding-webfinger) and a as I implemented it on darch.dk ([wf endpoint](https://github.com/sorenpeter/timeline/tree/main/_webfinger-endpoint/.well-known/webfinger)). Try `RANDOMSTRING@darch.dk` on http://darch.dk/wf-lookup.php ([wf lookup](https://github.com/sorenpeter/timeline/blob/main/partials/webfinger_lookup.php)) or `RANDOMSTRING@garrido.io` on https://webfinger.net

Thanks @, good to know, but we need to agree on what character we use, otherwise the hashes will not be the same:)
2024-09-30T07:52:30Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#zd4utgq)
@ Regarding the new way of generating twt-hashes, to me it makes more sense to use tabs as separator instead of spaces, since the you can just copy/past a line directly from a twtxt-file that already go a tab between timestamp and message. But tabs might be hard to "type" when you are in a terminal, since it will activate autocomplete...🤔
Another thing, it seems that you sugget we only use the domain in the hash-creation and not the full path to the twtxt.txt
`$ echo -e "https://example.com 2024-09-29T13:30:00Z Hello World!" | sha256sum - | awk '{ print $1 }' | base64 | head -c 12`

@ YES James, it should be up to the client to deal with changes like edits and deletions. And putting this load on the clients, location-addressing with make this a lot easier since what is says it: Look in this file at this timestamp, did anything change or went missing? (And then threading will not break;)

(#<2024-09-24T12:45:54Z https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>) @ I'm not really buying this one about readability. It's easy to recognize that this is a URL and a date, so you skim over it like you would we mentions and markdown links and images. If you are not suppose to read the raw file, then we might a well jam everything into JSON like mastodon

(#<2024-09-24T12:44:35Z https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>) There is a increase in space/memory for sure. But calculating the hashes also takes up CPU. I'm not good with that kind of math, but it's a tradeoff either way.

(#<2024-09-24T12:39:32Z https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>) @ It might be simple for you to run `echo -e "\t\t" | sha256sum | base64`, but for people who are not comfortable in a terminal and got their dev env set up, then that is magic, compared to the simplicity of just copy/pasting what you see in a textfile into another textfile -- Basically what @ also said. I'm also on team extreme minimalism, otherwise we could just use mastodon etc. Replacing line-breaks with a tab would also make it easier to handwrite your twtxt. You don't have to hardwrite it, but at least you should have the option to. Just as i do with all my HTML and CSS.

(#<2024-09-24T12:34:31Z https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>) WebMentions does would work if we agreed to implement it correctly. I never figured out how yarnd's WebMentions work, so I decide to make my own, which I'm the only one using...
I had a look at WebSub, witch looks way more complex than WebMentions, and seem to need a lot more overhead. We don't need near realtime. We just need a way to notify someone that someone they don't know about mentioned or replied to their post.
2024-09-24T12:26:41Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt
Some more arguments for a local-based treading model over a content-based one:
1. The format: `(#)` or `(@)` both makes sense: # as prefix is for a hashtag like we allredy got with the `(#twthash)` and @ as prefix denotes that this is mention of a specific post in a feed, and not just the feed in general. Using either can make implementation easier, since most clients already got this kind of filtering.
2. Having something like `(#)` will also make mentions via [webmetions for twtxt](https://darch.dk/mentions-twtxt) easier to implement, since there is no need for looking up the `#twthash`. This will also make it possible to make 3th part twt-mentions services.
3. Supporting twt/webmentions will also increase discoverability as a way to know about both replies and feed mentions from feeds that you don't follow.
2024-09-21T20:14:09Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#s2dhlvq)
@ I cases of these kind of "abuse" of social trust. Then I think people should just delete their replies, unfollow the troll and leave them to shouting in the void. This is a inter-social issue, not a technical issue. Anything can be spoofed. We are not building a banking app, we are just having conversation and if trust are broken then communication breaks down. These edge-cases are all very hypothetical and not something I think we need to solve with technology.
2024-09-21T20:07:29Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#crmwgxq)
Been thinking about it for the last couple of days and I would say we can make do with the shorter `(#)`since it mirrors the twt-mention syntax and simply points to the OP as the topic identified by the time of posting it. Do we really need and `(edit:...)`and `(delete:...)` also?

@ I'm glad you like it. A mention (`@ `) is also long, but we live with it anyway. In a way a `replyto:` is just a mention of a twt instead of a feed/person. Maybe we chould even model the syntax for replies on mentions: `(#<2024-09-17T08:39:18Z https://www.eksempel.dk/twtxt.txt>)` ?!
2024-09-15T16:51:34Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#weadxga)
@ Thanks for the feedback.
1. Yeah I agrees that nick sound not be part of syntax. Any valid URL to a twtxt.txt-file should be enough and is more clear, so it is not confused with a email (one of the the issues with webfinger and fedivese handles)
2. I think any valid URL would work, since we are not bound to look for exact matches. Accepting both http and https as well as a gemni and gophe could all work as long as the path to the twtxt.txt is the same.
3. My idea is that you quote the timestamp as it is in the original twtxt.txt that you are referring to, so you can do it by simply copy/pasting. Also what are the change that the same _human_ will make two different posts within the same second?!
Regarding the whole cryptographic keys for identity, to me it seems like an unnecessary layer of complexity. If you move to a new house or city you tell people that you moved - you can do the same in a twtxt.txt. Just post something like "I move to this new URL, please follow me there!" I did that with my feeds at least twice, and you guys still seem to read my posts:)
2024-09-15T12:50:17Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#pvju5cq)
The [tag URI scheme](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tag_URI_scheme) looks interesting. I like that it human read- and writable. And since we already got the timestamp in the twtxt.txt it would be somewhat trivial to parse. But there are still the issue with what the name/id should be... Maybe it doesn't have to bee that stick?
Instead of using `tag:` as the prefix/protocol, it would more it clear what we are talking about by using `in-reply-to:` (https://indieweb.org/in-reply-to) or `replyto:` similar to `mailto:`
1. `(reply:sorenpeter@darch.dk,2024-09-15T12:06:27Z)`
2. `(in-reply-to:darch.dk/twtxt.txt,2024-09-15T12:06:27Z)`
3. `(replyto:http://darch.dk/twtxt.txt,2024-09-15T12:06:27Z)`
I know it's longer that 7-11 characters, but it's self-explaining when looking at the twtxt.txt in the raw, and the cases above can all be caught with this regex: `\([\w-]*reply[\w-]*\:`
Is this something that would work?

I was not suggesting to that everyone need to setup a working webfinger endpoint, but that we take the format of nick+(sub)domain as base for generating the hashed together with the message date and content.
If we omit the protocol prefix from the way we do things now will that not solve most of the problems? In the case of `gemini://gemini.ctrl-c.club/~nristen/twtxt.txt` they also have a working twtxt.txt at `https://ctrl-c.club/~nristen/twtxt.txt` ... damn I just notice the `gemini.` subdomain.
Okay what about defining a prefers protocol as part of the hash schema? so 1: https , 2: http 3: gemini 4: gopher ?
2024-09-10T08:00:40Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#rh6gtwq)
@ do that mean that for every new post (not replies) the client will have to generate a UUID or similar when posting and add that to to the twt?
2024-09-09T11:25:57Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#n4omfvq)
how little data is needed for generating the hashes? Instead of the full URL, can we makedo with just the domain (example.net) so we avoid the conflicts with `gemini://`, `https://` and only `http://` (like in my own twtxt.txt) or construct something like like a webfinger id `nick@domain` (also used by mastodon etc.) from the domain and nick if there, else use domain as nick as well

Fire-proof safes are generally designed so the internal temperature stays at or below ~350°F. Is there a computer medium I can write that's likely to survive an extended stay around that temperature? Storage size doesn't matter too much; a CD would be plenty (although an actual CD would presumably turn to soup).

I run Plan 9 on my server and my main home workstation (a raspberry pi). My "daily driver" time is basically split between that and a Mac (excluding time on my phone, i suppose). I think it looks elegant, too. :-)

@ the difference is that these other servers does not post several times a day with content that are not informative/interesting to people outside your academic context, which can be perceived as noise.
What @ have done is what I would call curation of the service he offers to the world for free (as in beer). It's no one right to have their posts syndicated to the frontpage of twtxt.net, it's simply a gift he gives to the world and he is free (as in speak) to wrap is anyway he sees fit.

2024-04-21T07:43:39Z — http://www.darch.dk/twtxt.txt — (#7ef2sea)
The wording can be more subtle like "This feed have not seen much activity within the last year" and maybe adding a UI like I did in timeline showing time ago for all feeds 
I agree that it good to clean up the Mastodon re-feeds, but it should also be okay for anyone to spin up a twtxt.txt just for syndicating they stuff from blog or what ever.
The "not receiving replies" could partly be fixed by implementing a working webmentions for twtxt.txt

@ What do you mean when you say federation protocol?
- Either use webfinger for identity like mastodon etc. or use ATproto from Bluesky (or both?)
- We can use webmentions or create our own twt-mentions for notifying someones feed (WIP code at: https://github.com/sorenpeter/timeline/tree/webmention/views)
I'm not sure we need much else. I would not even bother with encryption since other platforms does that better, and for me twtxt/yarn/timeline is for making things public

I'm also more in favor of #reposts being human readable and writable. A client might implement a bottom that posts something simple like: `#repost Look at this cool stuff, because bla bla [alt](url)`
This will then make it possible to also "repost" stuff from other platforms/protocols.
The reader part of a client, can then render a preview of the link, which we talked about would be a nice (optional) feature to have in yarnd.

Would it not also make sense to have the repost be a reply to the original post using the `(#twthash)`, and maybe using a tag like #repost so it eaier to filter them out?

Whole lot of false statements here. The vaccines are well-tested & well-studied, and are safe and effective. Breakthrough cases exist with every vaccine. If you are able and the vaccine is approved for you, choosing not to get it puts everyone around you at risk, including risk of additional variants developing.

Get vaccinated if you are able. At this point, if you are able and choosing not to, you are being incredibly selfish, full stop.

Nobody's saying he can't write code any more (I mean, I think his code is crap and wish he'd stop, but that's another issue). But he should not be on any board, should not be in any leadership position, should not be held up as a role model or even vaguely okay.
2021-03-27T08:45:21-07:00 — http://a.9srv.net/tw.txt — (#fwlweuq)
I can't believe it's controversial to say "somebody with a 30+ year history making women uncomfortable shouldn't be in a leadership position". That's not "cancel culture", it's just friggin' obvious.

This is an awful take. The issue isn't that he's cantankerous and rigid; it's that he's sexist, misogynistic, ableist, transphobic, and has a decades-long history of making women feel unsafe. This isn't "cancel culture", it's "consequences" (as is usually the case with that term).

Fixed the race in tw. Mostly; now it's just while tw/r is running. Close enough.

Ooo, tw has a race condition between tw/r and pull/mktl, in the case you /r after a new post but before pull & mktl have run. Oops.

@ Saw your oldish note about wanting an offline/async twtxt workflow. Do you have something that works for you? My (very young!) client was designed with that in mind.
2021-02-15T14:11:30-08:00 — http://a.9srv.net/tw.txt — (#v5yaeha)
I agree clients should present things better (part of why I'm writing one!). But that should be additive. There's a reason we're not passing json around.
2021-02-15T14:09:11-08:00 — http://a.9srv.net/tw.txt — (#v5yaeha)
@ Exactly, but that reduces the argument for URLs in the post. The client should figure out how to search based on the hashtag.

I'm unclear if I'm going to do the twtxt.net discovery protocol; neither my web server nor Plan 9's default capture agent strings. :-/
2021-02-14T17:57:04-08:00 — http://a.9srv.net/tw.txt — (#v5yaeha)
@ Looks like twtxt.net is already happy with it, so that's good! I'm just going to aim for that.

2021-02-14T15:10:56-08:00 — http://a.9srv.net/tw.txt
(#) @Yes, I think tags should just be #foo, and let the client figure out searching if it cares.
2021-02-14T12:57:47-08:00 — http://a.9srv.net/tw.txt
(#) @ Yes, I often read the raw messages. But more to the point, the simplicity of the format is the bulk of the appeal.
2021-02-14T12:57:33-08:00 — http://a.9srv.net/tw.txt
(#) @ 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.
2021-02-14T12:57:20-08:00 — http://a.9srv.net/tw.txt
(#) 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.

Hah... my silly twtxt client now has "stories" mode.☺
2021-02-13T23:36:30-08:00 — http://a.9srv.net/tw.txt
I don't think I'm implementing twtxt.net-style hashtags (for now?). The "" is bad enough for nicks, but they just make the plain text unreadable.
