I clicked on a blog post on Hacker News and I saw this:

I live in fear of this happening to me (albeit with Netlify). My solution is to post only inane things of no interest to anyone. Take that HN.
#
[aciccarello]
Yeah, me too. Netlify is almost worse in that they will let you rack up a big bill.
#
[aciccarello]
They say you can talk to customer service if you are targeted by abuse but I don't trust that they would actually drop the bill.

I can see Google paying for .io to become a tld, given their dev conference branding
#
aaronpk
why is google.io a 404 page
#
[KevinMarks]
they use io.google now
#
[tantek]
"Your search - site:http://google.io - did not match any documents."
#
[tantek]
well that answers that at least, Google has no need for .io so they're unlikely to pay anything for it

[snarfed] another (consistent) data point, latest note post says delivered to 317 servers, no sign of showing up in any Masto tag searches or profile pages
#
[snarfed]
sigh. so frustrating
#
[snarfed]
oh intersting, another data point, if you search for the BF post URL in Mastodon - https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://tantek.com/2024/283/t1/metaphors-constructive-cooperative-joyful - it shows up fine

[preview] [Tantek Çelik] I have put a lot of thought into deliberately shifting¹ metaphors², often in the context of the #indieweb³. One goal is to replace use of...
#
[snarfed]
...and then it gets attached to your profile timeline on that server. eg https://indieweb.social/@tantek.com@tantek.com
#
[snarfed]
so weird

!tell [manton] I'm seeing some munged characters in [tantek]'s posts on https://micro.blog/t, before the footnote numbers like "¹"
#
gRegor
Looks correct in the Atom feed though
#
[tantek]
Should all be proper utf8 in the Atom/XML
#
[tantek]
Could double check with the feed validator to make sure I’m not screwing up headed or something
#
gRegor
Yep, validated for me

That’s my bug. There’s a new issue with truncated posts, working on a fix.
