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/${DOMAIN}' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Client-Agent: unknown:0:unknown' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "admin": "${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 definitely not spam, simply use the below 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/${DOMAIN}' \
  -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.
