Discussion
@fresseng Thank you! Yes, Encyclia is a bit between two chairs with the account pages.
Part of what I discussed with Tom Demeranville was that Encyclia's goal isn't to be a replacement for the ORCID website, so if someone wants to look at the list of publications, we try to redirect them to ORCID.
But also, while Encyclia isn't yet well-established, people may need the URLs to pull up specific posts on the Fediverse. So I ended up providing a list, but making it kinda hidden / “for experts”.

Thanks! Good point indeed! Encyclia should not, indeed, replicate orcid. I had not though of that. With that in mind, I feel that the compromise you found is pretty much the best I can think of.
Maybe one suggestion though. As you could implement the #wait feature, maybe you could introduce a #x feature, where x is the countdown time in seconds (which could be down to zero) 🤔
@fresseng Yeah, some of these design questions would be more straightforward if ORCID had been more open to the idea of building ActivityPub support directly into their own platform. 😄
That's a good suggestions! I have now made it so you can use “ #wait=10” (or any other number) to customize the delay in seconds. 0 works for an immediate redirect, but you can also have a longer one. Just “ #wait” without a number still removes the countdown entirely.
@julian Great ! Just used it on my home page ! Yes, the product team at orcid is not so large, and they have to say focused. Maybe in the future, if Encyclia gets the success it deserves.
@fresseng Yes, I was happy to see that! 😀 I/we have been thinking about interoperability and had an exchange about it 1.5 weeks ago. There isn't anything that's super urgent, but I started a discussion thread here that I hope the @Bonfire team will reply to: https://discuss.coding.social/t/my-current-goals-for-activitypub-and-academic-data/750 (Poke @mayel 😛)
