The practical guide

How to use the Mastodon Recommendation Generator

Structure a truthful professional recommendation around the person, your actual working relationship, and a first-hand example of their work. The useful starting point for Mastodon is the reader: readers across federated servers with different local cultures and rules. Explain the subject clearly and choose the appropriate audience visibility before posting. Mastodon may not have a dedicated professional recommendation feature. Treat the output as ordinary endorsement text and check the surrounding context and rules. Add descriptive alt text to images, use content warnings when appropriate, and give a linked article a useful summary. Review visibility and reply context instead of assuming every post is a public announcement.

  1. 1

    Identify the person and skill

    Name the person and the work you can responsibly recommend. Use the person's correct public name and avoid implying a credential or relationship that does not exist. For Mastodon, a practical example is an accessible content template: include descriptive alt text with every example image.

  2. 2

    Describe your relationship

    Explain how you know the work: colleague, client, collaborator, or another actual connection. A useful recommendation makes the basis of the endorsement clear.

  3. 3

    Add one first-hand example

    Describe something you personally observed, such as the process, deliverable, or contribution. Do not add invented statistics, client outcomes, or praise presented as evidence.

  4. 4

    Review and choose the channel

    Edit the template in your own voice and check consent where appropriate. LinkedIn has a dedicated recommendation feature; on other platforms this is ordinary endorsement copy, not a native recommendation workflow. Mastodon may not have a dedicated professional recommendation feature. Treat the output as ordinary endorsement text and check the surrounding context and rules. Add descriptive alt text to images, use content warnings when appropriate, and give a linked article a useful summary. Review visibility and reply context instead of assuming every post is a public announcement.

Worked example

An explicitly illustrative reference

Starting point

Person: Alex Working relationship: collaborated on a publishing project Observed contribution: documented each review step and its owner

Example approach

Alex — content operations Relationship: collaborated on a publishing project. What I personally observed: documented each review step and its owner. Use this structure only with a real person and a truthful observation.

Tips for a better result

  • Explain the context so the reader can judge the recommendation's relevance.
  • Use one specific observation instead of a long string of adjectives.
  • Disclose a material relationship when an endorsement could be interpreted as independent advice. Mastodon may not have a dedicated professional recommendation feature. Treat the output as ordinary endorsement text and check the surrounding context and rules. Add descriptive alt text to images, use content warnings when appropriate, and give a linked article a useful summary. Review visibility and reply context instead of assuming every post is a public announcement.

This tool neither verifies the person nor submits a recommendation. Most platforms do not have LinkedIn's dedicated recommendation feature; use the text only in a suitable, permitted context.
