@prologic having to go to search to read an older conversation is inefficient, unseemly, and an overall poor user experience. There has to be another way, right?

@aelaraji off topic, I think you are using hard wrapping, or something similar, on mutt/neomutt. The formatting of your twts come up a little off. Specifically, the line wraps.

Yeah, I was correct. He originally posted "and image", and I replied to that one. Then he edited the twt, changing it to "an image", and you replied.

@mckinley because the OP edited the twt, after Yarn had already cached it. I replied to the original one, you replied to the edited version (o vice versa, haven't checked).

@prologic I remember when I first ran Yarn on *arrakis*, it was a mess. Remember I had to start it again from scratch? If I were to run Yarn today, I will have to ask you what `-u` to use, if I am going to run a web server on it (say, *Caddy*), and what to do to keep the huge cache Xuu and I like. LOL. Granted, I could figure it out myself after some trial and error too.
To make Yarn install easier? An installer script that would prompt for the settings, generate config, and install the *systemd*, because, whether we like it or not, the biggest Linux distros around use it.

@lyse mind it, English is my second language, though I have been using it since 1992, almost constantly.
"Next weekend", is the weekend after the one coming up. The one coming up is "this weekend", or simply "the weekend" (as in, "see you this weekend!" or "will mow the lawn on the weekend"). I don't like the perceived ambiguity of it, thus I strictly use dates ("lets get together on Saturday, 4 May 2024"). 😅

Is there something simpler, and leaner, than Gitea, which will allow me to see (as in read only) git repositories nicely on a web browser? Preferably a one-file-only solution, written in Golang.

@aelaraji hahahahaha! Good findings. Yes, most of them are invented, and medical/drug related. The kick with the German ones is that they summarise an entire paragraph, with not just meaning, but also feelings, and--hypothetically--hard to describe extra meanings rather difficult or impossible to translate to other languages.

Microblogging is often the antithesis of meaningful. You talk about everything, and anything you want. Even to the void. You have done it!
Yarn is niche. With it's forks, and yarns, it comes across as a "weird" microblogging for some (weird was the word a friend from Philippines used to refer to Yarn). The UI/UX has issues (I am not an expert, but I would say copying "the others" and slightly adjusting to give Yarn it's own uniqueness should work), and that keeps people away. The cache blows, I want to be able to see everything, at all times. The built-in search blows, I want a more "ala Google" kind of search. There is more, but you get the gist.
