How to activate user recommendation (Who to follow panel)

To show the who to follow panel, edit config/prod.secret.exs in the Pleroma backend. Following code activates the who to follow panel:

config :pleroma, :suggestions,
  enabled: true,
  third_party_engine:
    "http://vinayaka.distsn.org/cgi-bin/vinayaka-user-match-suggestions-api.cgi?{{host}}+{{user}}",
  timeout: 300_000,
  limit: 40,
  web: "https://vinayaka.distsn.org"

config/config.exs already includes this code, but enabled: is false.

/api/v1/suggestions is also provided when who to follow panel is enabled.

For advanced customization, following code shows the newcomers of the fediverse at the who to follow panel:

config :pleroma, :suggestions,
  enabled: true,
  third_party_engine:
    "http://vinayaka.distsn.org/cgi-bin/vinayaka-user-new-suggestions-api.cgi?{{host}}+{{user}}",
  timeout: 60_000,
  limit: 40,
  web: "https://vinayaka.distsn.org/user-new.html"
