What are the conditions, in the other side, to make this work?
I got 2 reds, but I don't know why.
Surely I did something wrong.

You need a link on the remote site pointing to this site with a link relation of "me" to prove that you have some form of control of the content at that URL. So something like

<link rel="me" href="https://my-streams-channel-url" />

This is not going to be effective on pages that are loaded via Javascript, so you really need to provide it somewhere else on the page which will be in the HTML that is delivered before any javascript content is loaded. You might Google rel="me" and the platform you're trying to implement it on and see what others have done on that platform. It's a simple requirement, but different providers have different ways of getting the HTML on the page. Some may not allow HTML at all. Some will require obscure hacks. In streams for instance it's going to be a bit difficult for non-admins to put links in the page HTML, and the best way to do it is to add the links to the identity manager. This may also be true for Mastodon and any other fediverse projects that explicitly support the "relme protocol".

Mastodon users might be a good source of assistance as many folks there have just recently gone through this process with a number of remote providers.

Ask Mario. It may not be possible on Hubzilla at this time unless you're the site admin.

I will also add that it isn't necessarily a problem if the link is red. You're still claiming this is your identity, but we currently are unable to prove it. Sure it looks bad, but it's not a bad thing. People can always look at these links and decide for themselves if they think it's really you. Most hackers won't go through the effort of adding unproven identity links because it dramatically increases the chances they'll get caught out.

Where did you find this?

I tried to place my 'streams page' in the hz channel bio, in 2 or 3 different places, and then, looking at the source code of the page, I saw the link.

Hmm, I have no such link. Do you know which entry created it?

It's the 'Homepage URL' entry that generates a 'me nofollow' link.

I wanted to experiment, but I honestly don't know if I keep the identities visible.
