Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Senior Security Architect at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming and dabble in product design.

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.

    Every time i use my Windows computer I feel like I'm stuck under water and every time i press a button some other button gets pressed instead.

    I'm sure it's fine if you're used to it, but wow I just feel incompetent trying to use it.

    🤯 TIL MySQL is aware of daylight savings time, and considers any times between 2am-3am when the clocks skip forward an invalid date!

    In one session, it might throw an error, and in another session, it might store 3:00am instead of 2:05! 🤯

    I wrote up some thoughts about how Bluesky can/should support OAuth, both for applications to access users' accounts, as well as allowing users to log in to their bsky.social account using their own website!

How Does This Work?

Would you like to use your own domain to be part of the Fediverse? Rather than finding an existing Mastodon instance to join, you can turn your own website into an ActivityPub profile like this one! Some of these options are more complicated than others, but the links below will get you started in the right direction.

  • Micro.blog is a fully-hosted service you can run on a custom domain or subdomain, and provides ActivityPub integration out of the box.
  • Bridgy Fed converts your existing website to ActivityPub using Webmention, h-entry and Atom.
  • Install a plugin for your WordPress or Drupal website.
  • Nautilus is an open-source proxy server you can run independently from your website.
  • You can self-host a single-user instance of ActivityPub-compatible software like microblog.pub, WriteFreely, or Mastodon.

If you want to go full DIY, you can implement ActivityPub into your own website! I started by following Eugen's guide here.
