7 | Doesn't force you to maintain a master "following" file (the way Twitter does), |
8 | but let's you point it to any follow-file every time it runs. | |
9 | ||
10 | This means unlimited possibilities for ad-hoc, interesting filtering | |
11 | combinations. Especially when paired with | |
12 | [process substitution](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_substitution). | |

46 | ### LWW downloads | |
47 | Downloaded timelines are stored in `~/.tt/cache/<SHA1_OF_URI>`, but no attempt | |
48 | is made to preserve the previously-downloaded messages - each download | |
49 | overrites the previous. One of the implications is that authors can edit/delete | |
50 | history without you noticing. |
