Hi there,

If you look at my personal profile I have a link to Mastodon:
https://www.drupal.org/u/gregharvey →

The code comes out like this:

<div class="field-item even">
  <a href="https://toots.codeenigma.com/@greg_harvey" rel="nofollow me">https://toots.codeenigma.com/@greg_harvey</a>
</div>

Great! This means Mastodon sees the rel="me" and I get a nice green tick on my Mastodon profile page.

Now for my company page, I add a link into the organization description field, see 'Find us on Mastodon':
https://www.drupal.org/code-enigma →

But the rel="me" gets overridden with rel="nofollow", in any of the boxes. Could we please add rel="me" to links on Marketplace pages too, so corporate Mastodon profiles can get their green tick? :-)

Many thanks,

Greg

    This does make sense and has value to the orgs creating Marketplace content.

    The original driver behind the rel=“nofollow” was to reduce the amount of spam posts including links as those links wouldn’t actually help the spammer. As Marketplace pages are reasonable well controlled, we don’t need to worry quite so much about spam in them so replacing with rel=“me” is low risk.

    Truly, all the social links in the user profiles get a rel="nofollow me" attribute, probably because social links are about the person.

    I am not sure it would be easy to detect which links on an organization node would need rel="nofollow me". If there were a section for social links on organization nodes too, adding rel="nofollow me" could be easier.
