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.

TIL Minecraft requires a freaking MS account. I thought it wasn't that bad so we proceeded to create one, but it turns out that if you want to create a child account (based on birth date, to avoid adult ads and shit) you as an adult *also* need a MS account that would be of course immediately connected to your childs account which I assume to be a gold mine for advertisers.
Seriously, fuck
#AdTech!
(I also wonder if this is legal in the EU?)
@G33KatWork constraints induce creativity: finishing the project without *that* part is almost like writing a haiku :)
@d_olex @whitequark oh I think I misunderstood! I'm concerned about how NDAs the Red Team is usually subject to (the target, data from their systems, etc) can be compatible with these third party services.
@lcamtuf Thank you for "nerd lore", I add it to my dictionary!
Dear designers: scrollbars are useful and exist for a reason. Don't hide them, please.
@cR0w As my bio says "I'm interested in all kinds of astronomy" :)
