	i
	iI installed twtxt on ma.sdf.org today. It was easy. I just used
	ivirtualenv-3.6 to set up a nice ecosystem, then did the pip
	iinstall method in the documentation. After install I ran the
	iquickstart. It asked to overwrite my twtxt.txt file (which I had
	ibacked up) but it turns out it didn't mess with it at all. All
	igood there!
	i
	iNext I found a list of people to follow as a starting point on
	igithub [0]. I forked the repo and added a pull request to add my
	iname to the list which was promptly accepted (whee!). Installing
	ithose folks is an easy one-liner at the bottom of the readme.
	i
	iFinally, I didn't want to have to log into ma.sdf.org every time
	iI wanted to check my timeline, so I added a little alias:
	i
	i alias twtxt='ssh -t meta twtxt timeline'
	i
	iI have a ssh alias for meta array in my ssh config, so that
	ihandles it all in one line nicely. Oh! I had to edit the config
	ifile for twtxt to set the display order to ascending instead of
	ithe default descending so that the newest messages are at the
	ibottom. Now I don't need to worry about passing it to a pager to
	isee the latest.
	i
	iThere's a #twtxt channel on freenode. I informed them of my
	istream, but I haven't seen any responses yet. @elw also set up his
	iown twtxt stream, so it's already paying off!
	i
	iI have no idea if I'll stick with it or if it'll end up having
	ia different feel from Mastodon, but what the hell. It's plain text
	iand that's awesome.
