if you think the idea of the Fediseer is a good one, we could use your help!

If you have an instance, make sure you’ve claimed it. To claim it, you can use this curl command

DOMAIN=lemmy.dbzer0.com
ADMIN=db0
curl -X 'PUT' \
  'https://fediseer.com/api/v1/whitelist/$%7BDOMAIN%7D' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Client-Agent: unknown:0:unknown' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "admin": "${ADMIN}"
}'

In the above bash script, simple replace your DOMAIN and ADMIN with your own. If you’re on windows, you can use git bash to run it.

Now you simply need to wait for someone to guarantee your instance. You can ask in this thread, or just look for other guaranteed instances which share your values and ask them. In fact if you pass a “guarantor”: “domain.tld” key/value to the payload above, the admins of that instance will get a PM to guarantee for you!

Once you get your API key with a PM, you can then help us add more instance. If you know of any instances that are definitelly not spam, simply use the nelow curl call to guarantee for them as your own instance. They don’t have to be claimed yet.

APIKEY="abcdefsawadf"
DOMAIN="notspam.domain.tld"
curl -X 'PUT' \
  'https://fediseer.com/api/v1/guarantees/$%7BDOMAIN%7D' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'apikey: ${APIKEY}'

Alternatively you can use the API directly so you don’t have to edit curl commands.

I hope soon we’ll have a working GUI which will make this very painless.

    Hi, good initiative. I hope it goes somewhere.

    I’ve registered my personal instance (from where I’m posting), waiting for a guarantor now.

    Small concern I do have for if this takes off: I hope there will be some way for personal or very small instances (with closed registration, for friend groups, etc…) to still get guarantors. I can imagine that when the web of trust gets big, it might be hard for personal instances to enter the bigger web of trust, especially to get guarantees from the larger instances. Any ideas or plans for how that might work in the future? A thread like this is already a good step, I was looking for something like this yesterday when I registered.

      Anyone guaranteed can guarantee for others. So small instances absolutely can join. In fact you should guarantee for other small instances yourself!
