Why is this useful? Fediverse & Mastodon: WebFinger is essential for federation. It allows Mastodon and other ActivityPub-powered platforms to find and follow your WordPress site. Decentralized Identity: People can look you up using your WordPress domain, making your site the canonical source for your online identity. Works with other plugins: This plugin provides the foundation that other plugins (like the ActivityPub plugin) build upon. How it works: When someone searches for @you@yourdomain.com on Mastodon or another federated service, their server asks your WordPress site: \"Who is this person?\" WebFinger answers that question by providing information about you and links to your profiles. Technical details: WebFinger is an open standard (RFC 7033) that enables discovery of information about people and resources on the internet. It works by responding to requests at /.well-known/webfinger on your domain. Frequently Asked Questions How do I customize my WebFinger identifier?
