Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

What about IP + MAC Address?
MAC address is a Level 2 addressing system (OSI model) and will not leave the local network / stay within the broadcast domain. The web browser will not expose this kind of information to a web server.
Gotcha thanks for the clarification
MAC address isn't something a remote server knows about a client. Only the IP you should respond to is provided.
Ahh, I see. Thank you
