Hi everyone,
I'm selfhosting my own mastodon instance. Due to technical reasons, I can't run the mastodon instance on the apex domain.
My mastodon instance is setted up to generate usernames on the apex domain, meaning:

• Mastodon instance is accessible via subdomain.example.com
• Mastodon instance is setted up in order to allow other instance to find users like this: @[email protected]

I'd like to link my instance page, but I'd like github to show the proper username (in this case: @[email protected] instead of @[email protected]), would you consider this?
Thanks in advanced for your answers.

Your post reads like you want to suggest a feature for Mastodon, so you should probably post in the Mastodon repository. At least that's where their roadmap page tells you to go with feature suggestions. 😉

This forum is primarily for the discussion of Git and GitHub, and a discussion here is unlikely to be seen by the Mastodon developers.

No, this is regarding the ability to link mastodon profile on the same place you can link twitter or linkedin.

Ah, I see what you mean, sorry.

Same issue was reported here with more information on how all this works.

I was talking about the place on your profile where you can add custom links.

Looks like an ai generated-reply, there is no "Add custom link" button on GitHub...
