@prologic@twtxt.net have you considered adding rel="me"
to “User Links”?
@caesar@twtxt.net Hmmm? 🤔 Please elaborate?
@caesar@twtxt.net Sorry I understand how the rel=me
attribute works and why it’s important – I guess I was missing something though in the back of my mind I didn’t make clear…
Do we just assume that any User Link a user inputs into their profile or we find on their feed (it’s actually part of the Metadata spec) should have a rel=me
attr? 🤔 Ca we make that assumption?
@prologic@twtxt.net Ah sorry, gotcha. 😀
Hmm, you make an interesting point. I would assume that most links a user would add would be to their own profiles, but maybe not all?
The Metadata spec says “A link to some other resource which is often connected to the feed or author”.
I think my inclination would be yes, add it to all of them, but I can also see that a user could put links there that aren’t their own. 🤔

This is my main concern. I don’t think we can make this assumption.
The Metadata spec on Links doesn’t really allow for anything else besides a Title
and URL
anyway, so I’m not sure how we can deal with this except to have some Pod-specific behaviour we attach to the links? 🤔 (some kind of UI/UX around the user indicating whether the link is in fact theirs and maybe a custom icon?) cc @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com
@caesar@twtxt.net Let’s put it this way.. what’s the worst that would happen if we do make this assumption that all user links are their own?
