## Update the Mastodon account
|
||
|
|
||
|
Log in to your Mastodon instance and click on **Edit profile**.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Add a new item under **Profile metadata** with the label **OpenPGP** and your PGP fingerprint as the content.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Update the PGP key
|
||
|
|
||
|
First, edit the key (make sure to replace FINGERPRINT):
|
||
|
|
||
|
`gpg --edit-key FINGERPRINT`
|
||
|
|
||
|
Add a new notation:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`notation`
|
||
|
|
||
|
Enter the notation (make sure to update the link):
|
||
|
|
||
|
`proof@metacode.biz=https://INSTANCE.ORG/@USERNAME`
|
||
|
|
||
|
Save the key:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`save`
|
||
|
|
||
|
Upload the key to WKD or use the following command to upload the key to [keys.openpgp.org](https://keys.openpgp.org) (make sure to replace FINGERPRINT):
|
||
|
|
||
|
`gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --send-keys FINGERPRINT`
|
||
|
|
||
|
And you're done! Reload your profile page, it should now show a verified Mastodon account.
