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.
Gluttony Section for Search Engines
@foolishowl @danirabbit do you have an idea why they won't use Signal? It's free and easy, but I got similar responses about installing it before, never knew why.
@jautero This reminds me that the Sun isn't very hot, there's just lots of it[1] :)
I think this is a reasonable stance. What I do find unreasonable are design choices that (sorry, example again) make people shovel down megabytes of code into a client-side VM to display black on white text. I don't think this would cross anyones mind 20y ago, and not only because perf constraints. But our thinking changed at some point.

@jautero I qouted an example and there are others in the post. Also, not even considering performance, have you ever used MS Teams and thought "hmm, that's some fine piece of software"?
I'm struggling to find and "ELI5 LLM" video, everything I get is either AI generated, marketing, or explaining advanced topics.
Any recommendations?
