Playing around with an interactive version of “rate my robots.txt” and got this gem from testing on Reddit:


This robots.txt is like a participation trophy for SEO experts: “Good job showing up, now go away”.

Felt inspired by @johnmu.com an his robots.txt file that was also a wave file, and did a robots.txt that is also an xml document and Mystery Science Theatre 3K (via xslt).

Huh. We don't expose underlying BGP stuff in our platform but we do have all the PCAPs from our global observation grid. Some really odd things started happening back on the 22nd

We all know that soft404s are a thing. But how does a SPA signal to Google that it's backend api can't keep up with crawl speeds?

Are soft 429s a thing?

Long overdue from Googles side - one wonders if they could have gotten away with the cloaking if they hadn’t been called out:

My outmost respect and support for @joost.blog on this.
Even though I think they’ll find widespread support, it think this journey to reform will take time.

Looks like this has gone under the radar. Seems like a significant change.
“Yesterday, Google announced to organisations that use its advertising products, that from 16 February 2025, it will no longer prohibit them from employing fingerprinting techniques”

The online ad world is so toxic and Google is an enabler

I can write a message and have it cryptographically signed to prove that I wrote it.

But why on earth do browsers not have support for this? Feels like a missed opportunity that we cannot prove and check authorships across platforms via signing.

The Dec. 2024 core update is rolling out, and we expect it will complete in two weeks.

If you're wondering why there's a core update this month after one last month, we have different core systems we're always improving. This past blog post explains more: developers.google.com/search/blog/...

I wonder which bots weren’t following the rules and will actually be stopped by this. - apart from all the scrapers faking that they are said bots.

Assuming the account signed up on launch day, it had to follow almost 330 accounts per day to get to over 110k followings.

Feels like something that a moderation team should auto-ban.

A fascinating read on how the darker side of SEO operates:

Makes you wonder how many sites out there are artificially kept alive, just to extract some search engine gains.

The bots are here.

Makes me wonder if there is a rule against using excessive following to get people to notice your profile. I.e is follow spamming allowed?

Should one report or block these?

Trying to test how our pages render without any type of JavaScript or preloads in chrome, but I cannot seem to find a switch to stop
Anyone know how?

Here's I was hoping I could add unicode via punycode to my handle, but xn--158h.wunsch.dk doesn't show up as 🚀.wunsch.dk

Wonder if I'm doing it wrong, or if this is a deliberate bluesky limitation?
