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
@xabean @azonenberg It is! The nice thing is that you can clicky-click the UI the look at `ps` to see how the magic (in this case: vTPM) happens.
@azonenberg Proxmox even has GUI for that (tested with Windows guests)
@leeloo @tris @campuscodi This is turning into a flame. I think I made my point about the misconceptions brought forward earlier (anonymity vs. privacy vs. encryption).
User friendly services often have to make trade-offs/compromises. If you don't like those choices you are free not to use the corresponding service.
@tris They usually have additional features like customizable results ranking and no ads (obviously). I'm not familiar with the technical implementation but it seems reasonable to aggregate queries toward index providers, which would decorrelate queries from users (from the APIs standpoint).

@Andromxda IME (with Kagi) the purpose of the account is pretty clear: they need to keep track of your payments and user settings.
@campuscodi
@tris Usually what makes a difference is the business model (e.g. adtech vs. regular subscription). Your hair dresser may know exactly who you are and know a lot about you, but you can trust them not to sell your conversations because they make a living from cutting hair, not selling PII. A level of privacy is of outmost concern for many OnlyFans performers (to avoid stalking), while they show a lot of themselves publicly. Privacy != encryption either.

Today the solution for the Halting Problem is: It does not halt.
