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.

#Rust adventure for the weekend:

@frycos Nice! Also, seriously go and touch some grass ;)
@trou Looks pretty useful! In fact I've always wondered what made Cyber Chef so popular when the shell is *right there*. I also look for strengths/weaknesses of different tools (another similar one is rax2) as inspiration, so the more I see, the better!
@stf Turns out it's surprisingly easy to create "liberal" parsers with the nom crate!
