L'égrégore André ꕭꕬ<p>One annoying thing about the search function on Mastodon is it's occasional nature.<br>Currently I once again can't find stuff from:me or in:library more recent than last year.

The fact that WordPress alone has no mechanism to allow a domain to exit the fediverse is reason enough. Sometimes servers get bricked and there is no way to go back and self-destruct. </p><p>Domains could be validated with a text record in the DNS by the owner of the domain name. If text record ActivityPubKill is true, then it should be trusted as so and defederated. </p><p>I'm not sure how this could be done, I don't know the ins and out. Maybe software packages could poll the DNS of failing federated servers and look for a universal or software specific kill tag or a file could be placed somewhere on a server that it looks for when a server fails, esp after 7 days. </p><p>Either way, a dns entry or a file on a physical server can be a trusted source as it takes elevated permission by someone in charge of a domain to usually do such a thing. <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/MastoDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoDev</span></a> <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a></p>
