Imagine sharing a link to your fediverse account to someone not on the fediverse, hoping they follow you. Now imagine instead that the link you share takes them to a beautiful yet simple landing page that carefully guides them to the ideal platform, geographically closest, and helps them through the onboarding process, recommends the best desktop/mobile client and then follows you from their new account. Stop dreaming. I'm building this. Wanna help? #WebIntents
RE: While I don't mind operating fediverse services like https://fedidb.com, I believe @npub12axf...0twd is something that should be transitioned to a neutral and trusted 3rd party organization for the betterment of everyone. Essential services like these depend on trust and integrity, and while I'm not worried about that, I have my hands full with Pixelfed, Loops and Sup. I built this because we need it, and want to find a better long term home, but if I can't, I will still run it until we can. View quoted note →
Hey @Evan Prodromou, I'm not sure if you've seen yet, but it's basically the missing piece of universal interactions/onboarding across fediverse platforms. I'm reaching out because I'm almost done implementing this, but also feel like this should be maintained/operated by a trusted organization like SWF. I'd love to handover everything, including the domains so it can thrive and be maintained by an unbiased organization. Let me know, and if not, I'll reach out to others ❤️
RE: Imagine being able to share your fediverse account on other platforms using this powerful new service that makes it super easy for them to follow you no matter what server they are on, and if they don't have an account yet, we can onboard them by leveraging the vast and community curated data from FediDB + CommunityDB. Follow anyone. Any software. Any account. One link or self-hosted html button ✨ We need better UX and this is a huge step in the right direction. Fedi Devs: Let's chat ✨ View quoted note →
