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

Linux: landlock can be disabled thanks to missing cred_transfer hook; and Smack looks dodgy too

This is CVE-2024-42318

@pancake Isn't this achievable by a blog-like ActivityPub service (or an actual ActivityPub-enabled blog engine, like WriteFreely)?

@pancake You mean you'd like to e.g. show RSS content under your own account?

This definitely sounds like a feature request, still I think a 3rd-party service with scoped credentials (at least Akkoma supports this, my bots have post-only creds for example) can still hit a sweet spot.

@kpwn I have no first-hand experience, but this must be pretty nice (Steven Seeley does it) for advanced topics: https://srcincite.io/training/

@pancake Fediverse SW (plz don't just promote Mastodon) have nice open API's so we can go nuts with our ideas without going through standardization rituals.

A quick search got me this little tool: https://codeberg.org/MarvinsMastodonTools/feed2fedi , and IIRC there was some service that did the same without coding/hosting yourself.

On the other hand I use Fedi as an RSS _generator_, so I kind of agree that having some features built-in makes a difference - question is how we determine if the API is not enough?

ProTip: the moment you'd put the first debug print in your supposedly long-running Python program is the right time to import logging instead.
