@dansup @dave Ah, hm, maybe Mastodon can finalize the JSON-LD context for the FEP soon? Seeing the code here, the placeholder jumped out at me.

[dansup@mastodon.social]

@julian @dave yeah, that would be nice

I can’t overstate how fantastic this is, @dansup! It’ll be a huge win for onboarding.

I hope more projects are able to follow you down this road in the future

I shouldn’t ask for more features, but…

We need a way to tie this into Web Intents, so that a new visitor can 1) click “Follow” on a page or starter pack, 2) find & join a new server, then 3) see the profile/starter pack ready to go in their new home page.

Wanna write an FEP with me?

@dansup @julian It is on my to-do list. Cannot promise a definitive date, but should be soon️

[dansup@mastodon.social]

@benpate @dave Yes, let's do it!

We can leverage my @webintents project to provide a consistent and polished UX that is easily embeddable.

Chat soon!

@dansup @dave @webintents

As soon as I fix.. just.. one.. more.. bug

[dansup@mastodon.social]

@benpate haha, a tale as old as time()

[moshimotsu@floss.social]

@dansup @dave Does “compatible” here mean that I could use a Loops starter kit on Mastodon? Very cool work thus far!

[dansup@mastodon.social]

@moshimotsu @dave yes, when mastodon ships support for this!
