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
@jonny @aburka "nothing can be trusted to do anything because it never throws (so that the tests pass)" OMG yes, this is literal damned asbestos as code and it's EVERYWHERE!
Fair warning:
If you are a person involved in creating splash windows for first browser startup and we ever meet in person, I will hurt you.
@stf The main issue that I don't plan to move to Emacs, although I'm sure org-mode can do literally *everything* (khm..Unix philosophy...khm) :D
@brouhaha This sounds strangely similar to the no-search fedi crowd...
@stf Several editors highlight "TODO" specifically, but I want a way to format custom sets of markers, possibly depending on the extension/project I'm working on. Another example is marking findings in my notes with different severity labels.
@stf How does org-mode help with customizing highlighters?
@paniash @tarsius Good point, a simple regex-based highlighter would probably cover most of the use cases!
