Zunächst mal ist der 404 der HTTP-Statuscode für "Not Found" (Nicht gefunden). Den erhält man, wenn man etwas aufruft, was es auf Serverseite gar nicht gibt.

Bei der Mastodon-App sollte man davon ausgehen, daß die keine fehlenden URLs (in diesem Fall vermutlich API-Endpunkte) aufruft. Kann also möglicherweise ein temporäres Problem sein...

... wobei man im Hinterkopf behalten könnte, daß mastodon.social auf Vorabversionen von Mastodon läuft, aktuell auf Mastodon/4.6.0-nightly.2026-03-19.

Please, someone? I want an Apache #HTTP Server middleware that creates an interstitial with "We detected suspicious activity from your #ChatGPT request", and lets visitors wait for a second for them to contemplate whether their usage of ChatGPT is necessary.
The interstitial is triggered by `?utm_source=chatgpt.com`.

👀🚀 Oh look, another riveting tale of tech enthusiasts poking around #HTTP like it's the 90s again, because why bother with #HTTPS when you can play 'spot the redirect' instead? 🌐🔍 Don't forget to toss some #Bitcoin into the void to keep this nostalgia train chugging along! 😂💸

Can webmasters please not assume that HTTP/1.1 = bad scraper and think it's okay to block them indiscriminately? Browsers like #Dillo, #Lynx, #Links, and #NetSurf still only use HTTP/1.1, and I doubt they will ever adopt HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 due to how complex those two are. Hell I'm in #PaleMoon with HTTP/2 disabled, and along with #Basilisk their HTTP/1.1 implementation outperforms HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 for my internet connection since they preserved HTTP pipelining (which mainstream dropped because I guess they have skill issue trying to tune their pipelining implementations).

Pardon my stuttering. I'm working on it.
