Dylan Freedman (dylan@journa.host)'s status on Thursday, 22-Dec-2022 19:08:29 UTC Dylan Freedman Anyone familiar with the way Mastodon handles verifying URLs? At the Washington Post we're working on adding verified rel="me" and Mastodon links in our author profiles, but we're seeing mixed results on verification actually going through. It seems non-deterministic(?)
@dylan (me): works
@jeremybmerrill: does not work even though he's on the same server as me
@zubakskees : works
(+ more)The author pages on the Post are identical in terms of linking back to Mastodon. #mastodon
