The Fediscovery project defines a protocol for "Fediverse Auxiliary Service Providers", standardised services which can provide common features like cross-instance search, recommendations, and the potential for many more. This talk will describe, from an outside-the-project perspective, how the protocol works, how you can build support into your apps, and how and why we did this for Manyfold.
