I like the new tabs.pub. Just had a thought.

A user on my Bonfire is experiencing an issue with Federation. When I've been posting from here, I see that tags.pub has been boosting my content. I like that. A bit noisey, but whatever.

HOWEVER, since I now know that my FiresideFedi user isn't federating, I wonder if you could add like a @ping@tags.pub when doing a #ping or something similar, so that we have external servers that verify our connectivity. Maybe not just a ping, but a PONG or response or something. I think this could help with understanding connectivity.
