Mastodon profile field #21863

Open jolheiser opened 2 years ago

jolheiser commented 2 years ago

Feature Description

Currently if you want to link to your Mastodon or Twitter account, you can sacrifice your "website" field in order to attain rel="me" which is useful for the nice green box that verifies you own the account/page.

GitHub allows a separate field for Twitter, however I propose we try to make it more generic for those who use Mastodon (or perhaps other alternatives).

As an alternative proposal, we could also just follow how Mastodon lets users fill in a number of field->value inputs to make it more generic.

Considering Gitea aims to eventually be federated, I think "verifying" links similar to mastodon may also be a good idea, although I think that can be implemented separately.

I would close this in favour of the more generic #23443
