So I am really curious, now that I am building upon @sorenpeter's Timeline app, how other users write/add their twtxt, and how you follow conversations. Comment svp!

@Codebuzz we use clients to do that, but some users may want to, or do, manually edit the twtxt.txt file.

Hey, @bender I know. Just wondering the kind of apps or software and how you all stay up to date in conversations. Is it through webmentions?

@codebuzz I have some shell scripts that handle some of the log formatting details, but I mostly write my mesages by hand. Lately I've been browsing twtxt.net since they aggregate most of the known network. I have a couple of demo aggregators sitting around, but I'm in the middle of some infra rebuilds so a lot of my services are offline rn. They're both built on a simple social graph analysis that extracts urls for your direct follows the follows listed on each of those feeds (friend-of-a-friend replication). certain formatting operations are awkward with my setup, so I may write an app of some kind in the future. likely gemini-based, but I have a number of projects ahead of that one in the queue.

due to the gemini-centric nature of my setup, I don't get webmentions. I just scrape the network and grep. maybe my aggregator will produce notifications at some point lol

@Codebuzz I use Jenny to add to a local copy of my twtxt.txt file, and then manually push it to my web servers. I prefer timestamps to end with "Z" rather than "+00:00" so I modified Jenny to use that format. I mostly follow conversations using Jenny, but sometimes I check twtxt.net, which could catch twts I missed.

[…] and then manually push it to my web servers […]

Funny, I also push manually, kind of. My publish_command includes a [Y/n] question and I very often hit n, so I can keep writing a thread until it’s finished. And sometimes I delete stuff again and never publish it. 😅

I use Mastodon similarly. I write posts in Vim until I’m happy with them. Then copy-and-paste to the browser …

@movq on this:

You could use toot, and bypass the browser altogether.

@bender Somehow I’m too lazy for a Mastodon client. 😂

Some interesting responses, hearing some with (intentional) manual labour involved. I am modifying @sorenpeter Timeline. Still have things I want, and also pondering what would help others.
