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
@rekettye Good to know it wasn't because YT thinks I'm a desperate alcoholic <3
The state of affairs is well illustrated by the fact that the video
"Turning children's glue into drinkable alcohol"
has a 1.4M view count currently on YT.
(I know this because it's also in my recommendations for some unfathomable reason)
@pancake I guess serious players in intel/SEO have this data already, even more up-to-date.
@pancake All of this looks like public data to me, so this is basically someone filling up a hard drive with data scraped from the public Internet?
