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

@dcoderlt @RGB_Lights This has been going on for years even before the UA war (a bit higher prio in all areas), and this is part of the reason why I can't accept the abuse argument: if this is abuse, why has nobody done anything about it?

@RGB_Lights Proponents say that cookie banners are deliberate abuse of the regulation (to condition users to accept whatever, I think?). IMO if the regulation allows abuse of this extent it is not a good regulation.

I mentioned the other day that I like to live dangerously and tend to use YT logged in.

A benefit of this extreme behavior is that now I have Joe Armstrong higher in my recommendations than Joe Rogan for the keyword "joe".
