The archive of what I posted on Twitter, which I now self host due to a lack of trust in Twitter and some other reasons.

I'll soon begin refelcting all my Mastodon posts here too. I'm happier self-hosting or maintaining an archive of my content on URLs that I can own.

There are tools to help you do this too. Such as this one from the makers of Eleventy.

@mrwiblog I don't know if that's "best", but it's certainly a popular option.

@Chr_Bach Yeah, we prefer you to have the place to yourself for those times you like to crank up your Best of Enya album and strut around barefoot. ⛵️👣

@jimniels @Netlify I also like the idea of redirecting those requests somewhere scary looking like https://www.cisa.gov/securing-federal-networks

...and like to daydream about the dry mouth somebody might get if they take a quick look at logs of their bot's progress.

@jimniels @Netlify (not that these requests appear to be people looking for content! More like something naughty trying to knock on a doors which thankfully don't even exist)

@jimniels @Netlify Absolutely.
And I'd love to read that post, myself!

The ability to discover what resources were requested but not found feels really powerful to me. I like to consider how I might capture that traffic and route it somewhere useful with _redirects.

@stefanjudis @swyx @Netlify @zeithq That said, for the logic you are describing, the URL nerd in me would tend to prefer defining that in the path rather than putting it in a qs.

(I don't have all the context of what you're making, of course.)

@stefanjudis @swyx @Netlify @zeithq I don't totally agree.

With a traditional backend, you'd not accept all and any arbitrary parameters or values. You'd have some validation and fallback rules in your logic. A GET should return a representation of content. You're just defining what you can GET at build time.

@stefanjudis @swyx @Netlify @zeithq 🥳 Perhaps a confusion about the limitations. It can't be completely dynamic and just accept any parameters. You need to tell it what params too look for and then you can scoop out the values of them if you need.

@stefanjudis @Netlify @zeithq You need to tell @Netlify's redirect API what query parameters to expect, but should it give you what you are asking for.
