Last year I finally gave myself permission to ignore the entire modern JavaScript ecosystem and go back to writing front-end code by typing library-free JavaScript into a <script> block... and it works great!

Don't even need jQuery any more, native JS absorbed its best features

YouTube should prompt users with a “You haven’t finished watching this video yet are you sure you want to comment?” message so they don’t waste their time asking questions you already answered - or cherry pick something you follow up & expand on. Would also support watch time.

I'm still struggling to understand how a person with such a reasonably impressive background can think that they are offering profound insight when they are just rambling on about the obvious and getting hung up on the wrong part of the tech.

Yes, we all are fully aware that the password is the problem. Thats why the best identity platforms will support many different factors and will strive to be fully passwordless and platform agnostic (supporting new factors as they are created via standards)

But while the industry still clings to things like AD, and product teams throughout tech still demand support for password, we have to support it while offering a path to the future.

That's part of it, though the RelMeAuth model can mitigate that to some extent. A lot of it is having a use case to authorise for. Micropub is one use case that can make sense to users

Nah, don’t forget that every micro.blog account is an IndieAuth account too. Users don’t need to have any knowledge of anything under the hood for that to work. We need more service providers to implement it more than anything.

That's very true, and the Wordpress plugin makes the case as well.

Yep although the WordPress plugin requires some active effort by the user. At least it’s just installing a plugin and not dealing with markup though.

This is precisely what IndieAuth aims to do. And it’s literally something any service can implement today because it’s based on OAuth2 (y’all use this every day) https://twitter.com/arcalinea/status/1359686548430614531. It’s kinda amazing (and a lot simpler than the stuff the CredWeb is cranking out tbh)

Ideally though, an identity shouldn't have to be tied to a server, even if I own it?

That's one opinion yes. There are good arguments on both sides.
