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.

A threat that many people have warned about for a long time. A bit ironic to read this on Kaspersky's site...

@froge In theory maybe, in practice these updates introduce breaking changes (see my mention of QA).

As developing a decent QA process for Linux distros seems to be impossible I don't get how enabling automatic updates by default seemed like a reasonable thing to do...
