getwtxt-ng
twtxt registry
twtxt is a decentralized microblogging platform
for hackers based on text files. The user is "followed" and "mentioned" by referencing
the URL to their twtxt.txt file and a nickname.
Registries are designed to aggregate several users' statuses into a single location, facilitating the discovery of new users to follow and allowing the search of statuses for tags and key words.
getwtxt-ng expands on the original registry specification by providing both plain and
JSON endpoints.
A reference instance can be found at twtxt.tilde.institute
2022-10-19: This has reached a "usable, but unpolished" state.
