# 20:48 [tantek] has anyone gotten that to work with their own site via Bridgy Fed? # 20:49 [tantek] Anyone view source on their Threads profile and find the rel=me link? # 20:49 [tantek] Anyone add a rel=me link from their home page to their Threads profile? # 20:51 [tantek] Then see if your profile when viewed on a logged in Mastodon account shows your Threads profile as [green background verified] ✅ ? # 20:53 [snarfed] 👀 should hopefully work if you have both the Threads => homepage link and homepage => Threads profile link... # 21:21 gRegor Wait is Threads federating now? I thought they were still an island, hadn't tried with BF yet # 21:22 gRegor Or do you mean rel-me verification on Mastodon via BF? I did finally see mine show up as verified on one instance, need to find which one # 21:24 [snarfed] right, the only change here is Threads adding rel=me to profile links. tiny change, but it is a nice nod toward caring about fediverse, open web, etc # 21:52 [KevinMarks] So where do we push them to verify links back to them and display them? eitilt joined the channel
# 22:23 [snarfed] evidently on Threads? that's where [timothy_chambe] successfully asked for rel=me in the first place eitilt joined the channel
[KevinMarks] They have rel=me as a link header
