@prologic Does one need a build timestamp anyway? That's an enemy to reproducible builds. Maybe just use the commit timestamp? That would work at least for official releases. It would be off for dirty working directories during development, though: `git show -s --pretty=format:%cI`

@prologic FWIW, at least five feeds were _not_ empty. But their feeds still looked dead, since the last posts were from 2020 and 2021. So that was probably before the date of last login was recorded.
Btw. how many accounts are there currently on twtxt.net? https://twtxt.net/user/stats/twtxt.txt looks like a grave, too. :-D

Wow, it's crazy how many people already delivered donations for our scout flea market today. Collecting and delivering officially starts tomorrow, today was just the setup. Covering the floor of the town's multipurpose hall, transporting and arranging beer tables and benches, setting up sign, that sort of thing.
But on the flipside, we've also been abused as dumpsters again. Some asshole brought us a deep fryer. With the oil still in it. Unfortunately, we discovered that too late.
The big work starts tomorrow morning at 8:30. And the flea market where we actually sell the stuff is on Sunday. It's gonna be a hell of a weekend.

@mckinley When typesetting our graduation newspaper ("Abizeitung" as we call it), I destroyed the work of a whole day. :-D
I plugged in the USB stick of my mate (exact same model as mine) to do a backup of that day's work. Since mine was already plugged in, the mount path /media/USB_DISK or whatever it was already existed. Throughout the day I saved everything on my drive (I don't know the reason for that anymore). The newly plugged in thumb drive then got automatically mounted by Konqueror as /media/USB_DISK2 or something like that. I wanted to show off my other mate how cool Linux was and how quickly the command line was able to get things done. By force of habit I `cd`ed into the wrong path to first `rm -rf *`, so that there was room for the new stuff. Indeed, the data was ruined super quickly.
When I noticed my fuckup I aborted immediately, but it was already too late. I went to the family computer to research recovery tools. All the files I was able to restore were corrupted. The Scribus XML files ended somewhere in the middle. So then we decided to redo all the work instead of wasting more time trying to fill in the missing XML. Unsurprisingly, it turned out that not only the last closing tags were missing, much more of the contents disappeared. I remember that I gladly noticed the second typesetting round went much faster. :-)
I could be totally wrong here, but I think one problem was that write operations to external devices were not immediately synced, one had to expicitly flush the write cache, e.g. by umounting it properly. Early on in the typesetting process we decided to have each page or spread as separate *.sla, because a) our computers were not powerful enough to handle a large project and b) once the layout template was cast in stone, we could easily work in parallel and join everything in the end. That helped to limit the damage to just my work. My mate's was still there I believe.
Oh yeah, that's certainly the best strategy, @bender! ;-)

@prologic I read the help and it's a bit clearer now. Still a bit wonky. I will probably have it already forgotten by this evening. "Term" is exact match and "Match" adds some kind of unknown fuzziness on top.
The second bullet point can be addressed I reckon. It's purely a UI thing. Also, I'd add a short explanation for the search types next to them, so people don't have to look things up all the time through the help or even follow the links to the bleve documentation.
I like the magic detection™. That's what people expect. At least I did.

Thank you very much, @bender! I just linked the thumbnail to safe on people's bandwidths. I figured if someone wants to view the photos, they just go to the album anyways. If one has no interest, it's less invasive on them.
Picking the money shot is always tricky. Especially since I have been sorting through them for an hour or more. I try to keep at most 10%. And yes, I very often do hate myself for pressing the trigger so many times when I come home. So by then I'm kind of sick looking at them any more. :-D Sorry, I try harder next time. ;-)

@bender Damn, I got caught. :-D
Btw. how does it work in English? In German it's ambiguous which weekend one addresses when saying "next weekend". Is it the coming one this week or the one in the next week? Different people interpret it differently if it is not inherently obvious from the context, like when talking about dates. I also noticed that sometimes the same person even switches between meanings. I think I do, too. But I don't know why.
Maybe it depends on when one says it. I could be totally wrong here, but earlier in the week, like on Mondays and Tuesdays chances for "weekend in the same week" are higher than towards the weekend (Thursdays and Fridays), then it's more likely to refer to the weekend in the next week. And yes, the week of course starts on Monday. ;-)
Not sure if it changes with dialects. :-? I assume that doesn't play a big role and is the same for all German-speaking regions.
On the other hand, "this weekend" is very well defined as the upcoming weekend in this week. It's only the term "next weekend" that can be problematic.

@prologic Good question. Two things come straigt to mind, although, I'm not sure how low hanging they are. Probably not even remotely.
1. I don't know what these three search types mean: "Match", "Term" and "Query String". I could read the help page (I probably should), but they are sooo far off from my little brain that I can't even think of a possible explanation. My (possibly broken) intuition would categorize "Match" and "Term" to be the same. Zero idea what "Query String" is supposed to be. But then I think a search should be so easy to use to not having to read up on it in a manual. Admittedly, the basic search works alright.
2. When "Match" is the default, why is it not selected? Similarly, when it searches all fields by default, why is "_all" not selected? This technical spelling "_all" with the leading underscore also doesn't look pleasing to my eyes. It's been a hell lot of time that I looked at the code base, so I forgot everthing by now, but that should be easy to fix.
3. Okay, three things. :-D Apart from the search results taking up soo much space, it would really be nice if the markdown would be rendered. Yes, this is probably very tricky, as the matching search terms are highlighted. So I imagine both the highlighting and markdown rendering probably contradict each other. Also, how to go about matches that are part of markdown link URLs, image alternative texts and the like. Not easy at all.
I reckon that's certainly not what you had in mind or wanted to hear. :-( Sorry about that. I doubt it myself if this is any helpful feedback.
No promises, but I _try_ to toy around with the search more in the future. Maybe even look into the code base and see what I can do. The next weeks will be full of activities with the scouts, though. So don't expect something in the near future.

@prologic Like @movq said, it is a very niche thing. But that has always been a good thing in my opinion. And I do still think so. :-)
yarnd in particular is too heavy for me personally, I just like the simplicity of wacking a file on my server and voilà. But other than that, I still support that software. :-)
And I come back to twtxt.net every now and then to read up on conversations that seem to be incomplete in my own client. Like if a new feed appears that I don't follow (yet). That's certainly a convenience that I do enjoy. Thank you for that!

Went on a 20-25km long hike yesterday. Birds were beautifully singing, the lovely smell of freshly cut grass was in the air and the terror of rotary mowers reached my ear constantly. It was a bit cloudy, but the sun peaked through every now and then. Really a wonderful day to be outside. About 21°C and some wind.
