A reminder, if you own your own domain you can quickly setup webfinger like this https://www.hanselman.com/.well-known/webfinger (can just be a static file, or dynamic) so that if someone searches mastodon (use me as an example) for @shanselman then it will call out to my domain, find me, and tell you my aliases, which is my account at hachyderm.io. Cool eh? Should take you just a few min to implement!

This is exactly what I came looking for 🙏🏻
@shanselman @dave awesome, let me know if you have any feedback when yoy get it set up!
Foremost: I love:

🤣

For step 2 I hit this URL ⬇️ but it's XML not JSON:
https://nado.social/.well-known/[email protected]

nado.social is running on https://pleroma.social/, not Mastodon, so I'm not sure if that makes a difference? 😬
@dave it should work for any ActivityPub implementation, not just Mastodon, but some of the url patterns may be different than in the example. If you copy it from the Pleorma donain's webfinger, then it should work!
Hmm. That's what I thought.
I copied it here: https://davetapley.com/.well-known/webfinger
Does that look correct to you? Again is XML not JSON 🤔
