#relme — Public Fediverse posts

Para quien quiera poner en su perfil del Fediverso un enlace verificado a su perfil de #Gitlab, aviso que han cambiado el código que general del #relme . Ahora hay que poner una URL en el Fediverso bastante fea, no vale con poner [1], en su lugar toca este horror:
https://gitlab.com/-/external_redirect?rel=me&url=https%3A%2F%2Fmasto.es%2F%40DavidMarzalC

Lo cual te dará el check, pero hasta que hagan un cambio [2], te va a llevar a Mastodon no a tu perfil de Gitlab.

Pero hay un truco, en Gitlab al margen de poner tu alias/handle de mastodon en el campo correspondiente, si pones la URL de tu perfil del Fediverso [3] en el campo de "Website URL", podéis poner vuestra URL del perfil de Gitlab [1] en la config del Fediverso y quedará de nuevo bonito y apuntará realmente al perfil de Gitlab.

Clarisimo, ¿verdad? Creo que voy a adjuntar capturas de pantalla :lolsob:

#relme #verification
I wonder why large news organisations do not use rel="me" -
most use at least schema.org

publisher: {
"@type": "Organization",
logo: "https://cdn.prod.www.spiegel.de/public/spon/images/logos/der-spiegel-h60.png",
name: "DER SPIEGEL",
sameAs: [
"https://www.facebook.com/derspiegel",
"POTENTIAL_FEDI_URL"
]
}

Would you consider if above
"mainEntityOfPage" is the same like the canonical URL
and
any fedi profile links to this URL

that this is something like a
"verified publisher" relation ?

There's a cookbook for adding #IndieAuth to your #getKirby site by Lukas Bestie:

Meta's Threads adds rel=me support, so if you happen to be using Threads as well as Mastodon, you can do that cross-platform ID verification thing should you so choose.

For anyone looking to get more out of mastodon I present Street Pass:

Her'es how it works

Mastodon users verify themselves by adding metadata to a website they own.

This metadata is often NOT clickable or even visible. it simply provides verification for mastodon.

This addon, scans for that metadata and collects them in a list, allowing you to easily find/follow the mastodon account of a page you've visited.

I wonder why neither the @signalapp nor the @Mer__edith account have a rel="me" verification with signal.org in their profile.

#RelMe #verification

How do you people verify your link to #PeerTube channel on #Mastodon? I tried https://peervideo.club/@vintprox that has a #relMe link to my associate TechHub profile, but it still doesn't lit green.

@MarkRuffalo just use profile metadata and #RelMe link to your other site. :fistbump:

@JLSA

yes, it is a green check before links in the profile (and green background).

This is not done by a centralized authority, instead the user links from his trusted page to the profile.
Both links have to have a "rel=me" attribute.
Most #Fediverse softwares support this and so does mastodon.

or

@thelinuxEXP

It is quite easy to verify yourself on #Mastodon via linking to #GitHub, because they put #relMe attribute on backlink.

After saving profile here and getting that green mark, you can get rid of backlink in your GitHub profile or even your website (no idea why you'd last one). Although, I assume that if such extra step is taken, everything will have to be repeated per updating Mastodon profile again. Hence, leaving backlink is more reliable.

@nilesh but of course, it makes sense to specify the protocol for any URL.

I believe Mastodon does a good job itself imagining metadata presented by user, and I wish more services did just the the thing it did: allow arbitrary links (a little touch of showing URL w/o protocol is good too).

Moreover, I liked the concept of website verification: #relMe link that should point back to their originating profile, to prove it's really them. I think more websites need to do just that.

Hier hat jemand sehr schön erklärt, wie man seinen Account auf Mastodon verifiziert:

I've been trying to get mastodon verification from a website I built. I added the micro format rel="me" backlink in the footer of the site. But it's not showing as verified. Why is this? Is there a delay in it appearing?

Website is https://dromorecc.com

I put this code in the head of my website and tried the body as well but for some reason it’s not becoming green in my profile. Would someone here have a hint for me why it’s not working? #relme #verify <link rel="me" href="https://bsd.network/@jansauerbier" />
