> StreetPass for Mastodon takes the same idea, but applies it to the web instead. Every time you visit a website, you can make a connection with the owner of that website, if the website has registered a verification on Mastodon.
What is the advantage versus writing "my mastodon is at <link>" on the web page?
- marginalia_nu 4y agoAs far as I understand, that's the sort of links the service scrapes (as well as literal <link>-tags).
- nightpool 4y agoThe point is that this browser extension collects those links passively so that you can see a list of all of the Mastodon accounts on pages you've visited, even if you don't notice them at the time (when you were reading the page)
