You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance
This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.
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.

I just dug through a 9MB JSON to find a direct message I sent here, only to find the corresponding object link to be non-existent. Fortunately I had an accurate timestamp, that helped me dig up the message on the UI after about 5 minutes of constant scrolling.
All this because some genius thought that preventing me from searching my own stuff will prevent online harassment.

VSCode doesn't know the powers I possess!
@caspicat yeah that too - google even has a special "wont tell you why we dont index this" code on search console. But I'm also talking about docs where you get like 3 examples but no API docs.
@pancake umm, that's weird, seems to have disappeared from the blog too?
