In case you forgot, I also happen to run the Fediverse People Directory!
It's over 3 years old now, and I will show it some love with some well deserved updates next month!

People Powered Discovery
Checkout the opt-in directory we made, it works with Pixelfed, Mastodon and others!
We fixed a bug in https://fediverse.info/explore/people that prevented adding a new account! It should work as expected now #fediverseInfo
Seeing "Server Error" when attempting to self-submit on https://fediverse.info/explore/people ?
We're aware of the issue, and working on a fix! #fediverseInfo
Grifter-free Fediverse Discovery
We built an opt-in directory of people using bio hashtags as topics.
https://fediverse.info/explore/people
One more thing, we're building an API to power discovery and follow recommendations in our project and the API will be open and available to anyone, including other fediverse projects! #fediverseInfo

Before vs After
So I finally figured out the spotty federation in @pixelfed, a legacy spam prevention measure caused remote posts/comments to be rejected if the remote account had 0 local followers.
It's embarrassing that it took this long to fix, I've been so busy with #pixelfedApp, #fediDB, #fediverseInfo and a few other projects that I haven't been able to focus on #pixelfed like I should.
I'll be laser focused on @pixelfed for the next month, just in time for our 5th birthday
I want the new https://fediverse.info/explore/people People Directory to be easier to browse, so when you search or click on a topic that isn't popular you'll see a red X that you can click to remove.
Now I'm thinking about adding advanced filtering so you can hide results based on topics, domains and usernames.
Also considering adding Lists support so you can build and curate lists of accounts that are easily shareable.
Imma ship this before I get too carried away #fediverseInfo #peopleDirectory
I'm putting the final touches on the redesigned https://fediverse.info/explore/people
I want to ship this tonight so I can get back to #pixelfedApp development #fediverseInfo #peopleDirectory
We're redesigning the People Directory (https://fediverse.info/explore/people) to make it easier to discover people across the fediverse!
Some highlights include:
Open API
Improved search (combine topics, search by software)
More account data (avatar, header, html bio, software)
Faster crawler (add/remove quicker)
More results per page
Shipping soon! #fediverseInfo
Making great progress on the new https://fediverse.info People Directory, hope to ship this in the next few days #fediverseInfo #fediverse
Grifter-free Fediverse Discovery
I'm putting a fresh coat of paint on the https://fediverse.info/explore/people directory!
It's an opt-in directory of fediverse accounts based on bio hashtags, to join simply add the #fedi22 tag to your bio and follow the directions on the directory page.
I'm also building an API so @pixelfed and other projects can build discovery/profile recommendations.
Feedback and boosts appreciated #fediverseInfo
Updated my bio with my full name, a better description of @pixelfed and finally added #fedi22 and submitted myself to the https://fediverse.info directory
I really need to improve the directory, it has a lot of potential!
https://fediverse.info/explore/topics/php #fediverseDirectory #fediverseInfo
Over 2600 people joined the https://fediverse.info/explore/people fediverse directory so far!
I'm going to make the directory easier to browse with additional data, and better handle bio/topic updates this weekend. #fediverse #fediverseInfo #peopleDirectory
- fedified
- https://fediverse.info/explore/people
Discover people based on topics, not hand-picked twits.
Non-curated & easy to join! #fediverseInfo
Thanks to @Framasoft for reaching out to me, https://fediverse.info now uses the original video on the landing page with subtitles in 20+ languages!
How can I improve the https://fediverse.info people directory?
I have a few ideas:
- Allow registration via statuses that contain hashtag topics so you don't need to pollute your bio
- User avatars (held off on this as it would require moderation)
- Topic intersection (group results by multiple topics)
- Filter by instance/domain
- Use localStorage to keep track of profiles you seen to show fresher results
Any more? Boosts appreciated! #fediverseInfo #activitypub
One week ago I launched https://fediverse.info
Since then, 515 people registered and have been added to 1800+ topics!
Discovery is important, and while we strive to fill this void, our ultimate goal is to help standardize discovery across the fediverse.
Every #fedi project should have this directory! #activitypub #fediverse #fediverseInfo
J'ai crée un ticket sur la forge logicielle de #Mastodon pour proposer de créer un annuaire décentralisé sur le même principe que #Trunk : https://communitywiki.org/trunk
