Decentralisation starts with decentering yourself.

💯 Great quote. There’s a chicken and egg problem, and those of us who understand the problem and are happy to be early adopters need to be the ones pushing forward hatching more and more eggs until that chicken appears (umm ok idk if that analogy makes sense but you get my drift 😆)

decentralised and distributed (we likely are here now)

Nah. Unless by we you mean us here on Yarn. But as a society, I reckon we’re at least one or two steps before that – I’d go with your “netizens asking why?” at best. Much of society still hasn’t even got to that point honestly.

(#mcoz7za) I wonder how niche the market would actually be? I feel like half the people I know would love a phone that didn’t mean either selling your soul to the world’s biggest advertising company or being locked into an expensive walled garden by the world’s most profitable brand.

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m not so sure there’d be a lack of good apps, I don’t think the situation on the desktop translates well to mobile. Google is pushing flutter pretty hard for mobile and it’s getting pretty good adoption, and it’s inherently cross-platform - Canonical are even using it for desktop apps.

(#fz26dya) @prologic@twtxt.net Then creating bots to automate that is the next step. 😎

(#32wwwza) @prologic@twtxt.net Okay, I’ll check it out! 👍

Sadly, I don’t know Go Lang though, so my help is limited to the HTML/JS parts. 😁

I can probably contribute the most on the pwa repo.

(#nswpp4a) @prologic@twtxt.net Your view from the window is not so gloomy, we have snowfall at all 🥶

(#bxxbuya) @prologic@twtxt.net this is where my interests lie. small and tight-knit communities that are decoupled from centralised systems. i’ve always thought that every human should have their own corner of the internet. or perhaps i’ve watched too much johnny mnemonic. i read the history of yarn and it aligns.

i may or may not have at one time worked at one of these big giants

(#aqsrxaa) @prologic@twtxt.net if this is something you’d be open to a pull-request on, i can likely make it work. i’ve torified some complex things before. will give this a shot!

(#bxxbuya) @david@netbros.com great, will make it a point to visit!

(#nswpp4a) @prologic@twtxt.net Have a fun vacation, have a great time!

(#bxxbuya) @david@netbros.com well said. i’ll set one up that’s open to registration but will use it as my primary pod. time to get busy this evening!

(#djb7lbq) @adi@twtxt.net stacks of various thinkcentres, laptops, proxmox machines.

(#djb7lbq) @adi@twtxt.net this is great. i’m considering putting infrastructure on my own metal at my space.

(#djb7lbq) @adi@twtxt.net thanks! do you also run envs? i saw their tilde and ecosystem which inspired me to start building my own. so great to see some legacy patterns coming back into play

TIL about the Angle of Vanishing Stability.

i really love the idea of yarn.social. this is encouraging me to start my own pod. perhaps some of my connections might join. it’s a clever way of doing things compared to say fediverse or ssb

(#djb7lbq) @adi@twtxt.net what i like about it so far is that it’s just generating html without any esoteric bells and whistles. now if i could take a course in css and html. i’m an old backend engineer who cannot draw stick figures :)

(#djb7lbq) @adi@twtxt.net just found your site generator. this is much nicer than relying on a bigger ecosystem such as hugo or jekyll

@prologic@twtxt.net just stumbled on this project and it’s really great. i’m curious to know if you’ve successfully put this behind a tor gateway as an alternative means of connectivity. also interested in the flutter app for android.

(#lswf6jq) @prologic@twtxt.net Thanks! Yeah I would’ve had it sorted yesterday but it kinda fell off the schedule.

Happy to be back to Yarning 😁

After 4 days of downtime, my pod is back up 😅 Might be time to replace the PSU on the server

I might have to do a lot of patches if I want to use netsurf again, lol.

(#inpmima) Not sure if bad idea tho.

(#inpmima) @prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, that’s super weird!

(#inpmima) @david@netbros.com You could script a web page with Lua, not sure how fast it, not quite as impractical as Linux in the browser.

(#cmjey7q) @novaburst@twt.nfld.uk I’m insiting on this piece:

it is specifically optimized for “sprinkling” a small amount of interactions on an existing HTML page rendered by a server framework

But I disagree with the custom attributes and stuff, I’d rather do my binding manually.

(#qdi37yq) @prologic@twtxt.net Indeed!

(#cnzbvya) @prologic@twtxt.net Agree!

(#cnzbvya) @prologic@twtxt.net If you’re talking about the custom attributes and nesting code with HTML, I agree, but I agree with

“sprinkling” a small amount of interactions on an existing HTML page rendered by a server framework

(#cmjey7q) @adi@twtxt.net vue.js? god no, I’ve seen pages using it with my own eyes. It’s not pleasing at all

Also, this looks amazing, Lua in the browser https://fengari.io/!

The Void Linux Advanced Installation guide translated to shell https://envs.sh/ETr.bin! This for my installation of Void Linux, your partition data may vary. Just download and run if you run a https://tinykvm.com/ instance.

I think the hacky footnotes broke the timeline too. Let’s see what shows now. The timeline was filled of own posts, so maybe the cache simply expired? We will find out now.

Testing to see how footnotes¹ work here, if they do at all. It is very hacky, and I am sure it will render like crap on any other twtxt client, but it does the job on Yarn.

_{1. This is a “footnote”.}

(#cnzbvya) @prologic@twtxt.net I believe projects like https://github.com/vuejs/petite-vue are the solution.

(#nswpp4a) @prologic@twtxt.net Hi 😊 Good to see you again! In general things are good, a little tired of the covid restrictions and I am insanely upset by the global chip shortage because of this good computer hardware becomes less available + the ruble exchange rate is storming.

How about you, what’s new? I periodically glance over here at twtxt )

(#5o6o7kq) @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com Good job!

(#2jmshbq) @thecanine@twtxt.net Looks like a chihuahua.

Nice new buttons! Who’s responsabile?

(#r52pitq) @david@netbros.com lol

(#2jmshbq) @thecanine@twtxt.net lol indeed

(#r52pitq) @prologic@twtxt.net right, but even with that, it’s enough to make me write anything xD
