@Gargron@mastodonmigration I can already think of one way if they are devious enough - If I follow someone on threads, then threads can just insert sponsored posts into their timeline that auto syndicates over to my account on Mastodon - So Threads can generate advertising posts on behalf of people and make them look like normal posts which will come across - Twitter essentially did this at one point & may still be doing it to fool people into reading ads
@feditips This only works through the web interface on your server I gather? Would be brilliant if applied to posts your software app of choice was gathering via the API as well rather than having to rely on software dev to implement filtering, lists etc
@pfefferle@ricmac Is your site running through Cloudflare CDN or similar? If so you can setup a redirect/response for this particular url on their service before it even gets to your host - There are several articles I have seen on how to configure CF to create the webfinger file for aliasing your mastodon handle & presume same url trick could be used
@pfefferle@ricmac I also had to turn off the redirection feature and 404 monitoring within the SEOPress Pro plugin & most other SEO plugins have similar functions
