We built Holos Discover, a 100% ActivityPub search engine, to solve a problem: Holos servers start with empty search indexes.

Being fully ActivityPub-native means every deletion, edit or block is processed instantly. Only public posts from consenting users are indexed. We respect every signal available.

This raised concerns, and that's fair. It may have highlighted misunderstood default settings. We're ready to shut it down if the community feels it's not welcome.
