This is an experiment. Please boost.

mastoddosnt.ddns.net/

Here's the idea: This post is going first to my followers, then, if they boost it, to other people. This domain has been registered for only this experiment. I should see in my web server's logs when mastodon instances start crawling the site for info. Then maybe also some curious humans.

I just want to play with my monitoring a bit :)

I know I promised a post with the technical details but first I wanted to write some meta discussion. I have the draft with everything I want to say, now it's editing time. Tomorrow, I promise. Due to other constraints, the technical writing will have to wait a few more days. Sorry for the inconvinience.

@mdione Any ETA on the results? The boosts seem to have stabilized since I checked yesterday.

OK. I finished editing the meta post. As said elsewhere, I'm a single parent this week/weekend, so the technical post will have to wait a few more days.

* very few land places have a land antipode #maps

@mdione but at least some of the most populated regions in east Asia do, so that does increase the likelihood of antipodal earthlings

@mdione In case you did not learn that today, too: By total coincidence, the main island of Taiwan (which is historically known as Formosa) is the (partial) antipode of the Formosa province in Argentina.

@mdione
Given that the planet's 71% covered in water, one would default to the expectation that that would be the percentage of land places that lack a land antipode, but the overlap looks even lower on this map.
