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?
@dansup I have a similar micro-project running on https://fediverse.ooo for quick linking to objects while being software agnostic, maybe that can be incorporated somehow?
The way I’m running it is to allow for future direct replacement of https://fediverse.ooo/example -> fediverse://example
@dansup You’re building way too many things at once… Loops only just hit the public, and then you were supposedly working on Sup, and now you’re doing something else? Like the passion is awesome but this feels like an infrastructural level of feature creep. Every project you (and anyone) have always has points of improvements, especially with only one primary developer, and you’re just chasing the next shiny thing. This isn’t focus or growth, this is a lack of clear goals.
@moshimotsu But it's fun! And in open source, you're never alone. Worried about Daniel's time and energy? You can always lend a hand! @dansup
wow .... 😊 very nice - whats the tech stack?
@smattymatty nuxt/tailwind + FediDB APIs
@dansup please implement autotranslation. Language barrier is huge for mass adoption
@dansup I like what you are doing though it doesn't benefit me as a WordPress user that I can tell.
Another use case would be having a link to an onboarding tool on profile pages, which could be tailorable for instances.
It could see someone not logged in, and given them the option of creating an account on the instance, or another instance.
This might even help with distributing new users to other instances.
It's a thought.
