This is `opt-in` service.

> A little history
|
||||
|
||||
Once upon a time there was a bot named "_[CloudflareLink](https://social.privacytools.io/@cloudflarelink/with_replies)_" which was created by Anonymous.
|
||||
It replied to many users who shared CF links publicly.
|
||||
|
||||
Not many people reacted it positively. Here is some of them.
|
||||
|
||||
- [kemonine@social.holdmybeer.solutions](https://social.holdmybeer.solutions/objects/9479c5be-40df-4ecd-a3fe-0209a9020dfd)
|
||||
```
|
||||
To the owner of this bot
|
||||
You should be ashamed.
|
||||
Quit drive by bro'ing our statuses.
|
||||
Please fornicate with a pointy stick.
|
||||
```

||||

||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
Pointing to a copy rather than the original document if it's still online is bad practice too. Also, you are a very annoying bot.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
They got annoyed and Mastodon server owner was pressured by their "spam" reports.
|
||||
|
||||
One of Mastodon server owner once [said](../tool/mastodonwch#some-public-reaction), "_your little protest bot is making people upset, and i'm worried it might cause people to defederate from the instance, please tone it down_."
|
||||
|
||||
For the record "_CloudflareLink_" was moved to other Mastodon servers 3 times and banned 2 times by 2 Mastodon services until the Anonymous decided to given up for good.
|
||||
|
||||
The main difference of AltLink is `opt-in`.
|
||||
Those people who [share Cloudflare links casually](cloudflared_shared_mastodon.md) never receive notification until they have a good heart and follow AL.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
> Subscribe
|
||||
|
||||
1. Follow [Alternative Link (AL)](http://altlink.crimeflare.eu.org/).
|
||||
- Some instances such as [mastodon.social](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/16480) are blocking altlink.

2. AL will accept your follow request and follow back you.
|
||||
- If you're locking your account, please accept AL's follow request otherwise AL can't read your toots.
|
||||
- If you're marking your account as `Bot`, AL will reject your request and send you a message.
|
||||
- Try to follow again within *24* hours. (opt-in by human)
|
||||
- If there is a network instability and AL failed to follow back you: please unfollow and follow again. This will trigger follow-back.
|
||||
|
||||
3. When you share Cloudflared link, AL will send `direct` message to you with information.
|
||||
- Direct messages older than *1* day will be deleted.
|
||||
- There is no good reason to keep old toots online.

|

> Unsubscribe
|
||||
|
||||
1. Just `unfollow` AL's account **on your side**.
|
||||
- **AL will unfollow you within an hour**.
|
||||
- AL do not attempt to re-follow you.
|
||||
- If you've changed your mind and want to subscribe(opt-in) again, `unblock`, `unfollow` AL and `follow` again.

> How to hide _boosted_ toots
|
||||
|
||||
If you just want to use `direct message function` and don't want to know other [user's voices](../PEOPLE.md), just use Mastodon's "_Hide boost_" function like below picture.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
> "_Is it really CloudFlare!?_" check
|
||||
|
||||
Just send `domain name` or `URL` as direct message and AL will answer within 1 minute.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's an example.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
@altlink blog.emsisoft.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also query multiple at once / mix domain and URLs
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
@altlink
|
||||
en.wikipedia.org
|
||||
https://blog.emsisoft.com/wow/
|
||||
www.wikimedia.org
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
> Report a problem / Create an Issue
|
||||
|
||||
You can create an Issue without git account. Just send a `private` or `direct` message.
|
||||
And don't worry,
|
||||
|
||||
- Multiple mentions (e.g. `@randomUser @altlink @otherUser blah blah blah`)
|
||||
- Some spam keywords
|
||||
- _Public_ message (e.g. `there's a bot called @altlink`)
|
||||
|
||||
...will be ignored to prevent spam.
|
||||
Your username part (before `@`) will be masked to protect your privacy.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
> Settings
|
||||
|
||||
You can configure AL via `direct message`.
|
||||
|
||||
- 1: Do not message me same domain again for a day.
|
||||
- Default is `off`.
|
||||
- By default AL will notify you each time when you share _cloudflaresite.example_. Turning this settings _on_ will silence second post for 24 hours.
|
||||
- 3: Count my links and send me report monthly.
|
||||
- Default is `off`.
|
||||
- If you turn _on_ this settings AL will simply count how many links you shared publicly and how many were Cloudflared. Note that this count will have duplicates because we never save (& don't care) what you shared.
|
||||
- If you change this settings _or_ each month has passed counter will reset to 0.
|
||||
- 4: Set my preferred language to ??.
|
||||
- Default is _unset_.
|
||||
- AL will use language based on your toot.
|
||||
- If you tell AL your language, AL will speak your language.
|
||||
- Need other language? Create an issue.
|
||||
- 5: Show my current preferences.
|
||||
- No settings option.
|
||||
- 6: Ignore boosted toots.
|
||||
- Default is `off`.
|
||||
- By default AL will notify you when you boost(retweet) other user's post which has Cloudflare link.
|
||||
- 7: Use alternative provider.
|
||||
- Default is `off`.
|
||||
- If you turn _on_ this settings AL will use [IAList](README.md) service.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
set N V
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- N is above numbers.
|
||||
- V is value.
|
||||
- for number 1 to 3, 6 to 7:
|
||||
- _one of_: y n yes no true false 1 0 on off
|
||||
- for number 4:
|
||||
- _one of_: _cc_ (see [/README.md](../README.md))
|
||||
- e.g. `es Español` -> `es`
|
||||
- for number 5:
|
||||
- none (see below example)
|
||||
- You can mix uppercase if you want.
|
||||
- `sEt 1 TRuE` is same as `set 1 true`
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Here's an example.
|
||||
|
||||
- Speak Русский. Monthly Report please.
|
||||
```
|
||||
@altlink
|
||||
set 4 ru
|
||||
set 3 on
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- What is my current settings?
|
||||
```
|
||||
@altlink set 5
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Turn 1 on and show settings.
|
||||
```
|
||||
@altlink set 1 yes
|
||||
set 5
|
||||
```
