Discoverability and Archiving
Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.
Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.

Somewhat related: who would've predicted that ClickFix will become an actual ItW vector that needs to be mitigated?!
An interesting metric of any political system is the distribution of professions of people in power.
For years it seemed that only unemployed lawyers and career buttlickers can become popular politicians around here.
Now we have a traffic engineer as a minister of transportation who knows the dates to the day when railway sections were closed down and calls engines by their nicknames.
And people love him! This gives me some hope.
Is there a list of ways to cut the very connection you are using to manage a server?

You find Anna's Archive via a search engine
I find it by randomly typing 2 characters after "annas-archive."
We are not the same. (although you've probably visited way less click farms)
@VirusBulletin Whoever decided to use shades of $color for chart segments should be fired on the spot.
@gsuberland Tampermonkey scripts escaping their containment sounds like a technological breakthrough, prepare a press release!
