Twtxt Is A Selfhosted Twitterlike Decentralised
This is correct. Pros/Cons. Twtxt originally just specifies a twtxt.txt file hosted somewhere. Clients basically just fetch this periodically. twtxt.net (and it's Pod software https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt) is the same, but it is effectively a multi-user client with a web interface and API. It also has a Mobile App (Goryon) in the App Store and Play Store. Otherwise it's still Twtxt. I don't think I'll ever be interested in integrating with ActivityPub to be honest.
To be fair, my project doesn't really emulate Twitter at all. It's just a "familiarity" thing. The software behind twtxt.net (https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt) actually supports both short (micro-blogging) and long (full blog posts) forms.
