@the_moep Also, it's kind of important that we send these notifications across ActivityPub; otherwise, the author's server can't track the shares.
But that doesn't mean you have to get notifications for automated boosts. I made a PR for Mastodon to let you filter or drop bot notifications:
I just pushed an update to #tagspub . Some changes:
- Added a profile avatar based on https://thenounproject.com/icon/tag-2028454/ by https://thenounproject.com/creator/gurupurnima4/ at https://thenounproject.com/
- Added a more detailed profile description, included a disclaimer on endorsement or association
- Added a section on why tags.pub is needed to https://tags.pub/#why . One of the most common questions I get!
@deborahh @PhoenixSerenity @jerome @mayintoronto Thanks. I added an issue to look for opt-out info in the profile properties, too. https://github.com/social-web-foundation/tags.pub/issues/28
@quaewpos Danke für die Information! Wir versuchen zu helfen und nicht zu schaden. Ich schätze jede Benachrichtigung über Schwachstellen.
@tml Yes, but we need more information about it on the tag profile pages and the home page. I appreciate your post, very helpful!
@hamoid @tml it'd probably help to have icons, I agree! I added an issue for this: https://github.com/social-web-foundation/tags.pub/issues
@evan Thanks! I had no idea Mastodon works like that, then your service indeed is very useful.
@evan @PhoenixSerenity @jerome @mayintoronto ok, i moved #noTagsPub (properly spelled!) Into main part of profile. Seems to work now. Thx
