So I see #Nolto doing the rounds as a supposed #OS #LinkedIn alternative

Judging from the Codeberg issues [1] and the self-professed ignorance of the prompter about fundamentals of federation and software dev [2], it seems highly likely that Nolto is vibe-coded

Superficially feature-rich but lots of loose ends and basic errors, this is a privacy and security disaster waiting to happen — I would not touch this with a barge-pole 😬

Nolto - not federated?

I signed up for Nolto on nolto.social and logged in via my mastodon instance. I see that I have a fediverse profile on nolto.social, however, I can't access nolto.social via phanpy.social web UI nor can I access even my profile via another fediverse instance (e.g. https://mastodon.social/@axleyjc...

@dingemansemark Oh, it's definitely vibe-coding. They even admit it. (Something called Lovable).

I commented about my concerns on another post:
