If you're interested in what else could be lurking in Google's anonymous seller accounts, here's 255k of them where Well-Known was able to identify the likely owner domain.

I've been tracking the adoption of the OWNERDOMAIN and MANAGERDOMAIN variables from Ads.txt 1.1 since it was released on August, and it's not looking great. Adoption is clearly leveling off at very low rates.

Note that these numbers are for sites that have (app-)ads.txts in the top 100k of the Tranco list. Looking at all sites in Well-Known is even worse.

This looks like a great solution. I will support my server with cash so I don't have to be a sysadmin and I can have my identity linked to my website. This protocol really is awesome.

Currently 864 #Mastodon servers are reporting they're open for registration.

#WellKnown will be re-scanning known servers every day, so the data should be relatively "live".

Of course, NodeInfo isn't limited to Mastodon. #WellKnown has already found ~280 sites running other #Fediverse software, including #Pleroma, #PeerTube, and #Friendica.

It'll take time to scan WellKnown's full list of sites, so there's sure to be plenty more to be found.

#WellKnown has so far found ~1.5k #Mastodon servers. If your server isn't listed, you can submit it to be scanned and added to the dataset.

Pictured is an example of the data available for a server. Filters are available to search by all this data (and more).

OK, a patch for the NodeInfo endpoint has been merged into #Mastodon. Hopefully that'll be released soon?

In the meantime, I'm tweaking schemas on the fly to get these NodeInfo resources parsed by #WellKnown.
