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
@jpmens @bagder Well, if your backups can be restored using a web API, curl can actually help!
@cR0w I think we'd need at least another digit given the shit I've seen on the open web in the last few decades...
@cR0w Custom services get CVE's now?
@jerry CDN's could come up with some clever compression/caching algorithm they could turn on every couple of decades!
@greg @algernon Thanks that's another data point then! I also remember having fun, and also being highly impressed by what one of the Markov-based tools could produce. In fact, I remember our reactions were really similar to those of early articles about ChatGPT (e.g. "it's arguing with me about X and making kind of good points").
