In not so secret news, I'm working on a #fediverse #search #index service that pulls in posts from all known #instances of #content that is public across thousands of servers. I'll let you know when it goes live.

@elshara I remember when suggesting this would make you an enemy of the entire fediverse and they'd organize blocks against you

@sun @feld @georgia @ZRDR_DelRio To be devil's advocate, search data on my test server takes up 2TB of federated content and growing.
@sun @feld @georgia Probably because they didn't want a one way feed of someone's posts to not be able to be private if the user and or instance didn't allow for that. And I do want to respect their settings which is why I won't be creating a timeline like a fire hose. But rather, something to do with search APIs that respect privacy.
