@bendwr and I discussing something along the lines of:
I.e: How to deal with or reduce noise from legacy feeds.@prologic@twtxt.net it makes absolute sense for a Yarn.social user. I propose the following formatting change:
WARNING:
You are about to follow a legacy feed, which may not have any kind of engagement. Do you want to continue?
@prologic@twtxt.net Why do we need to avoid posting to the void? That’s pretty much what twtxt was made for. I don’t like the “Legacy feed” terminology, either. I support the delisting of ciberlandia.pt but I think this change is heading in a bad direction.
I like @sorenpeter@darch.dk ’s suggestion. It gives the users the information and lets them make their own decision instead of putting a big scary warning in their face. That’s what Microsoft does, and we shouldn’t be Microsoft.
@prologic@twtxt.net I think one-way feeds are okay and we shouldn’t discourage them so strongly. On the other hand, I think it’s the duty of a poderator to filter out feeds that are just noise from the Discover feed. I definitely consider a truckload of one-way posts mostly in another language to be noise. Did you get rid of Gopher Chat too? I’d call that noise, for sure.
