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 suffered a moderate data loss in 2022 when tried to export a
#Wordpress site with this plugin:
https://github.com/benbalter/wordpress-static-site-exporter/issues/292Now the issue got an AI fix, introducing a lot of code to handle tricky symlinks.
Taking into account that the author didn't care to look at my issue for 3 years I doubt this fix is properly reviewed so I now trust this plugin even *less*.
@csepp No idea, I posted it in part as a bookmark for myself to read later...
(plus based on my recent experience, scripting IDA data types is always a courageous act)
