And all of this to answer @johannab question.

For communities, this becomes even more powerful.
A community can run its own Fediprofile hub.
Profiles can include:
• social links
• badges
• gamification
• streaks
• recognitions
All tied to the community.

Example: a hiking community.
Imagine a fediprofile hub for mountain hikers where members can:
• show their trail badges
• track hiking streaks
• share gear links
• display summit achievements
Combine that with a badge issuer and maybe a #Mastodon and/or #PixelFed server for the community.
Now you have a decentralized ecosystem.
