infosex.exchange <3

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

@dsalo See, "we can't even seem to have a proper discussion about the possible solutions". Bye!

@dsalo I think the root of this problem is that people who want to be forgotten historically chose the absolute worst platform for their communication: a public[1] microblogging platform.

I strongly believe a searchable, archived Fedi would be immensely useful and necessary so please don't suggest that everyone in the Fedi are on the same page about this. I'm not against having controls (either opt-in or opt-out) to control indexing on a per-account basis, but unfortunately we can't even seem to have a proper discussion about the possible solutions.

[1] The consent so many people seem to miss is in the act of pressing the button to *publish content on the open Internet*.

TIL when the Windows `copy` command is called with one directory argument it copies all files from that directory to CWD.

This was unexpected.
