Update the Pleroma account

Log in to your Pleroma instance and add the following lines to your Bio (make sure to replace FINGERPRINT):

First, edit the key (make sure to replace FINGERPRINT):

Add a new notation:

Enter the notation (make sure to update the link):

Please note that the /users/ part of the URL is mandatory for the proof to work.

Upload the key to WKD or use the following command to upload the key to keys.openpgp.org (make sure to replace FINGERPRINT):
