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
This one ran for more than 36 hours on my laptop with ghidriff's SimpleDiff (mostly single threaded so I don't think a bigger machine would've made much difference). I just filed a PR for an optimization that seems to make one phase run in seconds instead of hours, that sounds a bit too good to be true, so reviews are welcome:

@troed FTR it took me about a week a quit after this, so the effects were clearly significant :D

Whoever figured out that retirement homes and kindergartens can be merged should receive a Nobel prize (any field would do).

The second part is about teenagers teaching computer use for the elderly. Notice that a girl explains how to pirate movies on YT xD
