Definitely 👍🏻 on adding this, but I do want to see some consideration given for the best way to store the additional links, without being too inflexible for future evolution
# Unresolved questions | ||

- What mechanisms can we deploy to guarantee the appropriateness of external links? GitHub allows any link with no verification. | ||
- How might these links factor into prospective verification processes in the future? |

This will tie in super nicely to rubygems/rubygems.org#4062, since it allows for verifying different types of entities. We could allow verifying user links in addition to rubygem links very easily
For implementation: | ||
|
||
1. Add a new input field designated for the homepage URL. | ||
2. Integrate four input fields specifically for social network links. |

would we store 4 links directly on the User model? or add a CustomLink
table, and allow a user to have_many :custom_links
and then verify that they only have 4?
rendered proposal
I was iterating over user profile few times recently and it seems empty to me. Often I would like to get more info about gem author.
By making social links more generic, we can fix rubygems/rubygems.org#3321 and also make it simpler to maintain changes like Twitter to X renaming.
