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.

I'd celebrate #Skype's death with champagne if it wasn't ditched for #!&% teams (yes, lowercase!)

Instead let us enjoy this 2011 presentation about Skype's anti-debug tricks:

I used the Mastodon client hosted at brutaldon.org to connect to infosec.exchange with the elinks browser - the UI is...not great, but I guess it's just my terminal vs the default elinks configs :D

Anyway, you can ditch your uncool, sellout browsers and experience the Fediverse truly freely!

@cR0w You don't need to spin up a server, they have a hosted instance that can connect to infosec.exchange as a client, will post a screenshot in a sec :D
