@deadparrot I also thought I will be fixed e.g. by an external service. And then I was surprised, that it happened and federations worked against it. So it got closed again. https://mas.to/@zyklop/109324875795075404

I see 2 perfectly valid positions on #FediverseGlobalSearch:

1. "Would be immensely useful to find valuable information"

2. "Would be the perfect target-finder for bad actors/spam"

IMHO key point is *how* it would be implemented. (e.g. on opt-in basis)

Anyway, as @gerwitz wrote: "impossible to prevent […] indexing public timelines" → loosing battle.

It should be in our interest to build a "good" search engine to fill the feature vacuum before bad/ignorant one establishes.

I just found a new issue that should be part of the discussion on #fediverse #governance:

#FediverseGlobalSearch

Their seem to be two contradicting positions:

"Would be immensely useful to find valuable information" vs. "Would be the perfect target-finder for trolls"

I think there are (technical) solutions for this, e.g. a optin-hashtag for indexing. But they need to be coordinated. → #constitution
