(#aimrtoa) Keep the discussion going all! 🤗 I _hope_ you all find this a good read and help better understand how things were designed and built up to this point. Let's figure this out 🙇‍♂️ cc @jlj @mckinley @lyse

@prologic (#aimrtoa) Nice writeup! In an ideal world the following disclosure via User-Agent HTTP header would be configurable per feed, not only globally for the user. That's what I'm thinking about implementing in tt, once tt itself fetches the feeds and doesn't delegate this to the twtxt reference implementation. And yes, I'm fully aware that public social media and privacy are contradicting each other. As stated earlier, I think the list of ones followers must be given a TTL, which resets on each GET request. Once the TTL is reached, the follower gets removed from that list. That way, it's like analyzing ones access log, you're not getting dead followers in your list. Not sure, what such a TTL ideally would be. Maybe a week. Maybe two, maybe a month. Probably not more than that.

(#aimrtoa) All this talk about twtxt and privacy … Maybe it won’t be *that* long until I add some privacy features to jenny. 🥴

@movq (#aimrtoa) It's going to be great. ;-)

(#aimrtoa) @lyse I generally like the idea of having a TTL around the "Followers" list. I _think_ that could be great. In terms of the per-feed "show me as following" or not, hmm, yeah we _could_ do this but that's probably a bit more work that I had anticipated. I'll have a think about what needs to change to support this...

(#aimrtoa) Any other ideas folks? @jlj ? How do we feel about removing the @twtxt bot in favor of a per-user "event" feed that you implicitly follow? And maybe a special admin feed that the admin user of a pod implicitly follows (_for new users that join_).

@prologic (#aimrtoa) I reckon it would be better, if these were feeds that users/admins can explicitly follow or not. Following them by default sounds great, but I imagine some folks just don't want this "spam" in their timelines, so unfollowing should be an offered option.

@lyse (#aimrtoa) Great idea 👌

@jlj @twtxt @prologic (#aimrtoa) anyway to prevent someone from following another user's per-event feed?

(#aimrtoa) It seems like this per-event feed thing would be a lot of work. Personally, I think it's fine the way it is now. Publicly broadcasting unfollows went a little too far in my opinion but that was removed, right?
