  Contrary to popular belief, nature does not abhor a vacuum.

  99.9999999999999999999958% of the universe is completely empty. Give or take.

  And the 0.0000000000000000000042% of the Universe which isn't empty is made of atoms – but atoms themselves are actually 99.9999999996% empty!

  So everything is mostly nothing really.

  When you look at it that way, it’s easy to justify eating an entire tub of ice cream.

  using keybase for identity verification inside fediverse = 😱
  

  ... is this discussion actually happening? :facepalm:

  outside of being used as a user discovery shortcut, i'm vehemently opposed to webfinger for a multitude of reasons.
  
  the main one being that all software implementing it wants to own the /.well-known endpoint, meaning that it is difficult for you to run multiple software on the same domain (combining diaspora and mastodon/pleroma for example).

  People always talk about webs of trust and so on, but actually, that's not what really matters.
  
  What you want to prove is that the same person who controls these:
  
  https://kaniini.dereferenced.org/
  https://github.com/kaniini
  
  Also controls:
  
  https://pleroma.site/users/kaniini
  
  This proves it's the same person and the UI can reward them with a checkmark.
  
  IndieWeb has the basis of a good solution for this since 2008, called rel=me.
  
  You can read about it at http://microformats.org/wiki/rel-me and then come back to this thread, probably not a half bad idea really.
  
  Here is the gist of how this would work. In various software, you would set a list of links to things that are also you.
  
  So, on pleroma.site, you would link to:
  
  https://kaniini.dereferenced.org/
  https://github.com/kaniini
  
  And so on, forming a cyclic graph of rel=me links.
  
  Whether or not an identity node is valid can be determined by following the cyclic graph and seeing if the graph is complete. If it is, then you get the checkmark. If it's not, then you don't.
  
  This, incidentally, is similar in nature to the the concept behind my ActivityPub alsoKnownAs proposal, but there it is just checking AP objects for completeness instead of webpages.
  
  Note that no cryptography or anything else is involved in this, it's just following links around on things known to be controlled.

  @kaniini
  rel=me is the best way to do decentralized identity verification, as long as you are requiring DNS anyway, like AP does.

  @kaniini I care about this so much I’m replying while waiting for my cruise ship to embark.

  Rel=me is the real open solution and it works folks
