jrollans.com is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
@nclm Heh, thanks!
I was about to create a new logo for it, then I remembered https://symbol.fediverse.info, what a perfect logo!
Regarding the hashtag situation, we will keep #fedi22, but soon allow users to login via oauth to manage their listings without adding hashtags to their bio, which solves consent and allowing them to add themselves to more topics without polluting their bio.
@dansup Looks good! Love Bricolage Grotesque and above all the โ !
Would it make sense to introduce a new, clearer hashtag, such as #fediversedirectory or #fedidir or #fediprofile or something, keeping #fedi22 as an alias?
Adding yourself to the https://fediverse.info People Directory is as easy as adding the #fedi22 hashtag to your bio and then using the submission form.
It's consent driven, you will only appear if you add that hashtag we created back in 2022, and simply remove it and you will get removed the next time we crawl your profile, or instantly by using the same form!
In the future, you will be able to login to fediverse.info with your Mastodon/Pixelfed/Fedi account and manage without hashtags in bio
the new https://fediverse.info will also index public starter kits from Loops and featured collections from Mastodon ๐ฅ
you will also be able to add yourself to the people directory by including #fedi22 in your bio (yes, we're the reason this exists), and to remove yourself, simply remove it from your profile and then request removal, we will check it's been removed and remove your account.
Consent is crucial, that's why we require the #fedi22 hashtag in bios for verification โค๏ธ
