Summary

  • document Mastodon discovery requirements and compare follow-entry approaches
  • derive the public Fediverse handle from the configured actor username and ActivityPub public origin using the same helper as actor settings
  • show the full handle and a prominent Mastodon-style Follow action in the existing profile sidebar, not the homepage hero
  • provide universal copy-handle guidance and an optional Mastodon server redirect in the dialog
  • redirect client-side to the selected server's authorize_interaction endpoint without fetching visitor-provided hosts
  • allow the interface to be previewed while local federation delivery remains disabled

Verification

  • npm run build
  • npm run lint
  • npm test (314 tests)
  • automated execution of the rendered script covers copy behavior, safe redirect construction, actor URL encoding, and rejected path-bearing input
  • browser: profile sidebar renders the derived handle and Mastodon-style Follow action
  • browser: homepage hero does not contain follow controls
  • browser: mastodon.online redirects through authorize_interaction to sign-in
  • Forgejo CI run 50 passed

Review summary

The PR documents Mastodon discovery and follow options, derives the public handle from shared actor/runtime configuration, and adds a progressive follow experience to the existing profile sidebar. The homepage hero remains unchanged, no production identity is hardcoded, and the Mastodon-specific redirect does not perform server-side requests to visitor-provided hosts.

Acceptance criteria

  • Met — Mastodon follow and discovery requirements are documented with primary references.
  • Met — Copy-handle, Mastodon interaction, observer-profile, and WebFinger-template approaches are compared.
  • Met — The recommended sidebar experience and implementation considerations are documented with clear next steps.

Blocking issues

  • None.

Warnings

  • None.

Verification

  • Build, lint, and all 314 tests passed.
  • The rendered client script is executed by an automated test covering clipboard behavior, safe redirect construction, actor URL encoding, and invalid path rejection.
  • Browser verification confirmed the sidebar layout, unchanged homepage hero, native dialog behavior, and Mastodon interaction redirect.
  • Forgejo CI run 50 passed.

Verdict

Approved for merge.
