What would it take to get #IndieAuth working with #Mastodon / #NextCloud / #Peertube etc? Are there any major changes required in the way the various #Activitypub apps do things to be able to support this?
It seems to me that IndyAuth or something like it are badly needed in the #fediverse, as the more #decentralized we get, the more accounts users end up needing, compared to #gasm et al.

I totally agree, all the fediverse sites would really benefit from IndieAuth! Mastodon is already set up to add it with very few changes. Users already have a profile URL, and they already have an OAuth API. It would be just a few minor changes to turn that into IndieAuth, and then app developers can drop the whole API key registration part.
