->addMastodon('example.com')
->addMastodon('example.net')
->addMastodon('example.org')
->addOther('foo.com', '/bar/baz/qux')
->addMastodon('example.org')After all of those existing lines, add a new line that begins with ->addMastodon, followed by an open paren, then a
single quote character ('). Then type your domain name. Add another single quote character. Then a right paren.
